lately when i walk for more than say ten minutes that i have a pain in my left shin, muscular as opposed to bone, it is like a lactic burn you might get in the gym. i find that it is increasingly difficult to bend my foot up and find myself 'slapping' my foot down with each step as opposed to 'rolling' from heal to toe. i am 37 and otherwise in pretty good shape. any ideas before i go see the doc

I have been having ear aches for about a 1 year now in both ears. My ear aches last about 2 weeks, go away, and then come back about 2 weeks later. Should I go see a doctor? Sometimes I get really acute pains too, for no reason that I can think of.

It's been about 2 days since the hammer fell on my second toe, my toe now is 100% dark purple black and it's surrounding the skin. I've been putting my feet in warm water, cleaning it with alcohol and putting neosporin antibiotic ointment. If I go to the ER now are they just going to pull out my nail ? Should I just continue doing what I am doing and just wait until the nail fall off ? It does hurts but I know its from the pressure of the brusie clogged up inside....

Yeah pretty much there are a more than one (3 to be exact) some bigger than the other the doctors ran a sonogram and said that the are not filled with liquid which is a good sign and should be going down however that's not the case they started to go down but pretty much stalled (not sure if that's spelt right) no these are the conditions I have surrounding my enviornment. I have athletes foot for a couple of years now but it came back and spread a little, I have cats and the litter along with they're urine creates this unbearable smell, There's a nasty mold growing in my bathroom I mean the whole ceiling is practically black and the plaster is bulging. I have been real stressed out lately can that play a factor? I was thinking that staying in my house is not such a great idea since there are like health hazards everywhere there including the cat waste smells, the mold, and the lack of ventilation in my bathroom. I would also like to add that i was playing basketball & got hit there.

It feels tingly like it would if it fell asleep, but it has been a constant feeling now for almost two days. I can still walk and run on it without much of a hastle or any pain, but it's starting to worry me? Trying to see if this is normal or has happened to anyone else before I go see the doctor. Thanks!

I have been smoking for about two and a half years. I am smoking over a pack a day and can't really afford it. I was sick a few weeks ago and found some really good cough drops that kept me from smoking as much, but it says on the package not to use them for more than a few days.

I know many people are going to answer that smoking is bad and I should just quit. I know I should quit but I don't want to yet. I just want to cut down.

I injured my back as a result of a work environment which was badly laid out and poorly maintained. Repeated heavy movements (up to 1000 per day) had a cumulative effect in causing a lower back injury symptomatic of slipped disc - I have continuing back pain and sciatica more than a year later and lost two jobs owing to time off sick as a major factor since then. After being rejected in essence by a couple of firms for the claim one accepted just as I'd given up nearly, I have put a description of injuries,sketch of environment and supporting statement etc. I can supply medical evidence of back injury. No-one will be a witness as they would lose their jobs/be compromised in their career ambition etc if they supported me. What chance do I have? Earnings alone I have lost 10000.
Plus pain and related frustration/anxiety, stress ("can I provide.."), unable to play sports, unable to lift /play with my son, help my wife round house, DIY etc - totally frustrating - still in daily pain..

And I have nothing to do. My parents freak whenever I try to walk on my crutches, and I've been sitting here for 3 hours. What are somethings to do on the computer for free besides games.

I'm not allowed on MySpace or Xanga.
