Health - 8 November 2006

I had not noticed anything at all and have become slightly bothered now without any information as to -what- it could be. Help?
The lump is slightly larger than 1 inch long, in an oval shape about 3/4-1inch thick. I would guess the volume of about 1cubic inch total. It's hard, not squishy, and doesn't move more than a hair in any direction. It seems to be fine until I touch it. It's not like 'ouch!' painful, just tender. The skin around it is smooth and red, stretched a bit. It's located dead-center between my belly button and gential area. Doesn't seem to be a lymphnode but I am not that familiar with lymphnodes. When I gently pressed around it I noticed also that above my genital region the whole area (size of palm) is puffy. My lower gut and the general problem area has kind of had this faint ache sensation move through it quickly and then go away. I am not otherwise having problems. Any idea what this is, or could be? I really can't afford to see a doctor.

My 12 year old daughter has resorted to cutting herself instead of confiding in someone with her problems so I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how I can help her overcome this problem. She is generally a good kid but I am worried this is going to lead to more serious problems.

go to your doctor, surely people are not afraid of doctors especially if, and this is my personal favourite, they have just had babies or are pregnant?

it has been over 9 weeks now and i feel i am just being fobbed off by the consultant. he originally told me he would know after two months if he would need to pin my foot but now he has moved the goal post!!!!!!! i came out of plaster this week and he told me that it has not healed as he had hoped it would, i have to go back in 6 weeks time for more X-rays and then 6 weeks after this i have to go back for further X-rays(end of Jan 2007) he will then think about putting a pin in the foot. he has told me to walk on it as normal, go back to work in a weeks time(i am on my feet all day). when i try to walk it feels as if i have stone digging into my foot and it is stinging all the time. i cant bend my toes as it hurts and i have tried to drive but this is painful, i am going to have to drive as i can't get to work other wise when my sick note runs out. the consultant made me feel a nuisence. anybody had trouble with a broken metatarsal ??????

About 3 weeks ago, i got a little cold. I didn't care much, i just tok some cold medicine, etc. Then about 1 week later, i got new symptoms like a sore throat, difficulty swallowing. This didnt bother me much, i just thought the cold got a little worse. Now, in the 3rd week, i have gotten alot more symptoms. I have a doctors appointment today, but i still would like some feedback. Here are my new symptoms as of this week:

-Hot flashes that cause me to become confused about where i am, etc.
-Chills shortly after the hot flashes go away
-Throwing up green mucous, the same stuff that is coming out of my nose ( i know, sounds gross)
-Sharp cheast pains, and i can feel heart palpitations.
-My arms and hands have been going numb randomly throughout the day, especially when i wake up in the morning
-I am extrememly tired no matter how much i sleep
-If i get up for any reason, i feel light-headed and nausea.

I am a pretty young person, in my mid-twenties, dont take any medicines.
