Health - 18 March 2007

I keep getting bruises all over. Some are as small as a nickel or quarter but others are big black and purple monsters. I've been getting them on my thighs and all over my arms but I've noticed one on my hip recently and now I have another monster on my upper arm. The thing is, I have no recollection of doing things that would bruise. I do have a high pain tolerance from 3 years of recurring kidney stones, so maybe I'm just particularly clutsy lately and just don't take note of the accidents because it doesn't hurt. I do tend to be anemic around that time of month, but the bruises have persisted for around a month and a half or so. Should I be concerned or no? Any clue what could cause excessive bruising?

Never hurt it and had never had any hip problems before.

I'm skinny, little fat.

My friend said to eat lots of meat for protein, and drink lots of milk and water. Eat a lot of carbohydrates for energy too. Would that be a good diet for trying to gain more muscle?

I've sorta been slacking off in exercise since it's winter too, I live on a lake so I'll be constantly swimming and exercising.

I want to be a boxer, wrestler, or mixed martial artist when I grow up, muscle will be a big part of it.

Would a persons weight affect your decision on who you pick to help you conquer obesity related issues such as unhealthy food and proper eating choices and habits. Would you pick a thin person, since they are evidently doing something proactive, hence they are thin. Or would your choice not matter?

I moved to another city and searched for jobs in January and February. Finally I got a stockroom job at a shoe store, and it's similar to my previous occupation because I'm walking around the jobsite, climbing a ladder to put stuff up. Additionally I have a 23 minute drive to the jobsite.

The very bottom of right foot aches the most, then the metatarsals started aching when I woke up this morning, and ever since the first day the front part of my thighs ache like crazy because I am using those muscles to climb up ladders for 4 hours.

I like the responses I read from Yahoo Answers and I will do the following for my feet: Elevation, rest, and warm/cold water baths with (epsom?) salt.

But what can I do to heal my thighs? Hot water packs? Cold water packs? Or regular aspirin?

I think part of the reason why this happened is because it's been a while since I've done anything physical.

Thanks!

I've been sneezing all day, which is very unusual for me. My head/nose is all stuffed up. Nothing has changed in my house from yesterday to today, but today I'm sneezing up a storm! Am I experiencing allergies due to the weather? Will this go away soon?
