I fell when I was in some woods. A few minutes later my arm started burning, but not itching. And there were four little bumps. What is it?

I ask because my 4 yr old daughter had 2 pinkish bumps above her lip & over time she picked them off & they never came back. Then several months later she got one on her upper arm. (about where you would get a shot) Is this normal or something to worry about?

When I had my first daughter; a few weeks after delivery i developed this unbearable pain under my chest surrounding my back . I couldn't explain it all I knew is this pain felt like i was having a heart attack until i vomited whatever i ate. I did some research online and googled my symptoms and that first thing that popped up was "Gastrointestinal disease." Now I have described it to my midwife and my physician before i was pregnant and she said it could very well be indigestion or acid reflux. Well that pain couldn't be that unbearable...could it? It comes every now and then and at this moment i am 7 months pregnant and i am afraid it may cause problems with the baby or possibly premature birth....Has anyone ever experienced this? I do have a prenatal appointment tomorrow for my glucose test and i can ask again but this question is keeping me awake because i can never seem to get a direct answer. I want to know if anyone else has ever had this? And what it might be?

I have a question about coumadin, my father in law called me these morning and told me that both of his feet are discolored a bright red and the top of his left arm is also discolored. He has been on coumadin for the past 2 years, he has emphysema is on portable oxygen...ans was given the coumadin to thin his blood. Could the discoloration be from the coumadin? Im worried about him, but I live in New york state and he lives in Florida. I cant have my husband talk to him, because my husband is deployed to Iraq... Does anyone know anything about this med?

My mom just finished doing the treadmill for an hour and a half and she walked seven miles. When she got off the treadmill, when she was rubbing her skin, there was salt all over her skin. She even showed it to me. It was white little small grands of salt. It was all over her arms and legs. What does this sound like?

A heart disease mainly affects in the childhood. it affects through bacterial infection in tonstrils which properly not cared later affect the mitral valves. It mixes the good blood and bad blood due to the non working of valve. That means as per the required speed, the valve will not close or open. It can detect through stethescopic hearing even. The hearbeat speed varies.

It seems to me the discussion revolves around symptom treatment and not finding out the cause which, sadly, is typical of much western medicine. We want the silver bullet, so western medicine gladly obliges us--it's simpler, and more profitable, that way. In my own unprofessional opinion, many 'new' disorders are about nutrition deficiencies thanks to the western diet. For example, studies have repeatedly shown the negatives of bottled water. Funny how RLS increased in the population as bottle water consumption did. Distilled water can strip minerals - particularly magnesium - from your system. Magnesium is needed for your neuro system. Look up magnesium deficiency symptoms - you might be surprised. Have your body tested for nutritional needs, but get it done by an independent source, not those who are interested only in treating your symptoms. Good luck!

So i woke up yesterday with a sore throat. I tried to treat them with Cepacol. I didn't think anything about it because I just figured it was a sore throat cause I had been around smoke and that it would go away today. Now this morning just the left side of my throat hurts. I've tried to sooth it with Cepacol but nothing works. Is it strep? BTW. I'm going to the doctor soon but just wanted to know what everyone else's opinion was.
