I'm almost three weeks out of open inguinal hernia repair surgery. For the first several days my hip would hurt when I would laugh or try to get up. It would subside as I walked around so I attributed it to our couch being worn out.

The pain subsided until a few days ago when I had a sharp pain in my hip while on the commode (embarrassing, I know). Now it hurts when I've been seated on a hard chair for awhile and sometimes if I laugh hard enough it will hurt too. If I get up and walk around it goes away.

Any ideas what it might be? Could it just be that as I've gotten back to moving around from surgery that I'm just walking "wrong" and it's causing the hip pain?

Other than that the healing process is going splendidly. I imagine this will ease up in a few days, just curious in case it doesn't.

Hello. I have a minor problem but it's getting very annoying. When I run, the bone in the top of my big toe, and the top of my foot hurt, when I apply pressure during running, and even now as Im sitting here, bending my big toe upwards. It's not a qucik sharp pain, but a consistant, sore pain (not agonizing, though, just enough to be annoying). I have tried 3 differnet types of running shoes, and currently Im wearing a $200 pair of Asics extra arch support runners. I have pretty much no other problems with my feet when I run (I used to with my last 2 pairs of shoes, but with these new shoes, every pain went away, except for this one).

What could this be? Please don't tell me to ask my doctor, or ask a shoe salesman..etc... I just want to know if anybody else has experienced this, and what it might be.

Thanks!

I hurt my ankle today. The stairs, its not swollen but it hurts like crazy even more when I swollen my ankle two years ago (same one). At first I try to walk a sharp pain strike. I try to walk it off but hurts too much and now its getting stiff. I can barely move it without getting pain. Is serious or will it wear off?

About 4 months ago I got a lump on my upper finger joint. It went away about 4 weeks later. It returned after around a month, then went away again. Now I have it on my next finger along. When I say lumps, they are more of a swelling up around the joint, and you can feel a bump. It is quite red and a little sore, and stands out next to my other fingers. Someone suggested it could be arthritis, but I am only 22, so would hope not so young?!

Okay, Usually I eat a toaster strudel for breakfast and 5 chicken nuggets and milk for lunch, but then, after school while Im running track I get gas. If I try to hold it in, I run slower, but if I fart, I get embarrased. This usually doesn't happen during the winter months or any other time I run except the spring. What can I do to prevent it? Should I change my diet, take supplements, ect?

Could someone please help!!! I have recently had a cold and fairly bad sore throat and I also have an ultra dry irritation in the back of my throat CONSTANTLY... Every time I try to cough for some relief... nothing happens. Coughing doesn't do anything to relieve it, not even for a second. I am damaging my throat because of coughing so hard. I have tried drinking lots of water, gargling with salt water and herbal teas. I have tried all types of cough medicine but to no prevail. Has anyone got any suggestions? It will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

This cough is strange. IT IS NOT A SIMPLE TAKE COUGH MEDICINE. DOCTORS ACT BAFFLED. I wonder why they did not refer me to a specialist. it is like something the government is hiding. i have not seen a specialist and i feel that i should have been refered to a specialist for this. i am a veteran with health benefits.
it is not a simple thing that people think it is like something new is in the atmosphere.
I have one too. its not what people think. its a different cough that is different than any other one i ever had in my life. my throat tickles and itches, i cough uncontrollably with some phlegm and it is embarrassing in public, in meetings, in the restaurant. i am a veteran and went to the va and they call it an allergy. the medication , teas, pepper whatever does not work. WHAT KIND? It is driving me and everyone else CRAZY. i AM NOW getting very exhausted from this and drained. DO I HAVE SOMETHING ?

I need soda to "calm my nerves". Who knows, maybe it's all in my head but that's why I'm asking. If I don't have at least a couple of sodas (preferably pepsi) a day I get really adjitated, get headaches and just feel all around uneasy. How can I leave the soda alone??

About a year ago,i started experiencing pain in my right elbow.i have worked out for years,so I thought it may have been a strain,or even "tennis elbow" or something along those lines.I stopped lifting for awhile,but after a month or two,the pain appeared in my left elbow as well.About 6 months ago,the pain spread to my shoulders and chest/collarbone area.Any kind of pushing motion brings excruciating pain in the chest/shoulder area.My elbows don't hurt to bend,or to lift things, but when extended,or when carrying things they ache bad.about a week ago the back of my right hand went numb,and hasn't gotten better.I wake up several times a night and whatever side I'm on is asleep or in pain. I'm tired ALL the time,no matter how much rest I get.I have seen my physician,she ran a full blood test and after nothing was found,referred me to a rhuematiod arthritis specialist,whom I will see in a week-but all the research I've done doesn't seem to match the symptoms of arthritis.Any ideas?
