This morning when I was in class I stood up to turn in my test, when I started walking both of my legs felt like they were dead or numb and all of a sudden I twisted my ankle and it really hurt. It started hurting more as the day went by. Could it be sprained? Do you have any suggestions to make it feel better? Thanks.

I almost always feel cold. the rest of my family will be prefectly comfterable, and i will be bundled up shivering. im shivering right now, in jeans and a thick hoodie. theyre not normal consistant shivers either, they're spastic and choppy, last two or three seconds each, and radiate from my spine. theyre really hard shivers, not just little light ones. people can see me shaking i'm cold before almost everyone else is, i've only not been uncomfterably chilly once this week.

Can someone please help me with this, because the one solution i've found isnt going to be useable, because its not socially acceptable, and im tired of shivering.

Playing football I was hit hard in the ribs and I am wondering if there is a possibilty any of them are cracked Heres a description:

1. It hurts when I take a deep breath
2. there is a slight pain constantly that never goes away
3. a small spot whenever i touch it there isreally bad pain
4. when i stretch that side of my body it hurts

thanks in advance, I would love to know if they might be cracked so i can decide weather or not to get x-rays, and so i will know how many games i will be out for, because my team is going to playoffs, so if i can just fix it with pain killers, that would be great

I broke my ankle on october 11th and was put in a cast on october 16th. The doctor didn't say how to prop it up or anything but when i go to sleep i usualy lay on my sides. I had been fixing my leg so it can lay on its sides too but without moving my ankle or anything. But i dunno if i shouldn't lay it down on its side and wondering if im putting to much pressure on it. I am trying to make sure my ankle heals as fast as it can because i just don't want to be in a cast anymore. So i was wondering should i not be laying it on its side.. or should i have it proped up on my heal and on a pillow and just deal with laying on my back. Oh and by the way when i lay my leg down on the sides of it i put a pillow under it too. This is so hard to explain. Im just tired of being in this darn cast and not being able to do anything myself.

Doctors done know what it is but think its some form of tendonitis for which they have no cure.

They say take painkillers, if needed. However, pain killers like advil, tynenol, asprin and even codene dont have any difference. Has anybody experienced such a thing

On Oct. 13 I was bit by a Brown Recluse spider. When I began getting red streaks going down my arm 3 days later I went to the doctor. The doctor agreed that it probably was a Brown Recluse based on symptoms (others besides those listed here), appearance of the wound and the fact I've killed several around my house recently.

I didn't nor do I now have the dying tissue symptom. He gave me anti-biotics and told me it would take some time to heal. This was not my regular doctor but his associate. My concern is the lingering lightheadness, foggy thinking, nausea, and vision problems. Plus I still feel weak and generally not well. The venom at the site is no longer a large tender lump under the skin but seems to have dispersed. Where has the venom gone?

My family thinks I need to go back to the doctor though I don't think he can do much. I think all this will eventually pass and that it takes time to recover from the venom in my body. Should I be concerned or wait it out?
