My mom is 40 and had extreme upper leg/hip pain after she walked for 2 hours about a week ago. She went to the doctor, where they thought she strained a muscle, but yesterday she went to the doctor again, after she wasnt doing much better, and now she has to get an MRI on Monday. I'm really worried about her, and they think she may have a bulging disk in her spine!! Does anyone know what else it could be? How serious is a bulging disk?
THANK YOU!!

I have this really bad pain on my upper part of my left leg. I cant really lift it very high. I cant walk proper. I do a lot of kick boxing, and grappling, but I came home from class and i was fine. I was fine all next day at work. But when i woke up today, the pain started. I could not even climb in the shower with out yelling cuz the pain was horrible.

My husband wrecked a couple of days ago on his motorcycle and his road rash looks bad. Neosporin seems to be making it look nasty instead of healing it.

This started exactly 3 weeks ago. I have NO swelling, full range of motion, no discoloration, no prior history of knee problems- ever. There was no "sudden injury" - exercise a lot and it started hurting after a long day of working out. The pain is mainly on the inner side of my left knee. I also feel a soreness over my kneecap, but I'm not sure if that's just secondary pain. I'm not taking anti-inflammatories because I'm afraid that they will interfere with the healing process. The pain isn't killing me, but it bothers me and I'm afraid that this isn't going to get better. I can walk without a limp, but honestly I do feel tenderness and a little pain when I do walk. I have icing the injury 3 times a day and am not sure if I should continue icing my knee since there has never been any visible swelling. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Last couple of days, my right hand and wrist has been painful. Almost like muscle cramp or muscle ache and I'm wondering what it could be. I did play around with a object that was supposed to strengthen your fingers by working it out (as weird as that sounds). My husband's friend had that in his house and I was playing around with it recently; could that be the reason?

When I ride in the car anywhere from noon till 5ish then in the evening, I get sick in my stomach and my head begins to pound. The sun or heat also affects it, but it happens all year round. Is there anything I can do help relieve the pain?

Last night my friends and I got into an argument with another group of guys outside a bar. One dude threw a punch at my friend, and all hell broke loose. Next thing I know, I'm pounding a guys head into the ground when I was jumped from behind.

I started wrestling with this nutter, and before I could pin him, he started chomping my arm. I have black and blue teeth marks on my forearm, and it actually broke the skin in two spots.

I washed it thoroughly, and poured peroxide on the puncture wounds before applying an antiseptic cream.

What diseases are transmissible through a human bite? I'm keep an eye out for infection, but should I worry about something communicable as well?

I've been waking up at night for the past few nights drenched in sweat. So far I've tried lowering the temperature in my room, which hasn't helped. I sleep in cotton PJs (shorts and t-shirt) and have cotton sheets. Any ideas? I'm in generally good health. I don't have any other signs of TB so I don't think it is that.

my wife has been poorly for some time and now we are basically looking into it ourselves seeing as the doctors dont seem to have a clue. And so any information that anyone can offer would be fantastic. thanks
