and it wakes me up slightly. but its really hard to take a breath or move when it happens, its like my body is paralyzed (or if any of you take really strong perscription sleeping pills and wake up before youre supposed to its like Uber hard to move) im not overweight so its not that...and im 16 if that makes any difference. but once i am finally able to take a breath i can move again (not a lot, but enough) its only been happening recently it doesnt happen every night and sometimes it happens 2 or 3 times a night...so question is whats causing this?

I know those bellies don't contain food or beer. I often think it could be huge intestinal worms. I am open to factual answers.

i just can no get tired i mean i wake up at 8:30 in the morning everyday no naps during the day. i just can not get to sleep i lay in bed with lights off tv off and just lay there not getting any tireder. I DO get off the computer so that is not an answer. I tried Tynol pms that works little but i do not want to have to take them all the time bc i do not want to get immune to them or something. I just do not know what to do. I do not get tired until like 4 or 5 then i get up at 8:00am or 8:30 so i would think i would be tired. Please give me any ideas i DO want to sleep. I just cant fall asleep no matter how hard i try.

I sometimes go through bouts of insomnia (they usually last up to 3 days). Unfortunately, I am unable to take almost all types of medications, including many herbal remedies. Can anyone suggest something to help me get to sleep? I FEEL tired, but when I go to lay down, I cannot sleep, so I get up, try to read, drink some Chamomile Tea, sometimes take a brisk walk. Nothing seems to help. Is there anything else anyone can suggest? It would be much appreciated.

What could possibly cause this kind of a headache...It's usually in one spot above the right eye. This has been going on for about 9 months now and the headaches come randomly about 3-4 times a week (doesn't seem to be caused because of change in weather). The pain is usually sharp just in that area. Could this be serious or is it just a normal thing to deal with? What can cause this and what can be done to prevent it other then to drink pills?

Hi, I fell down and injured my right knee a few days ago. previously i couldnt straighten my knee while walking. It has gotten better now though i am still limping as my knee is not fully straight yet. But i noticed that my right calf and ankle seems to be swollen and tight after i started walking each day. But there is no pain in the calf and ankle. But every morning when i wake up, the swelling is not there. Why is this so? Is it water retention? Will it go away once my knee recovers?

It is between my big toe and my first toe. I went to a doc and he said it was a neuroma, but a second opinion doc said neuromas don't form there. He injected me with cortisone and said he wasn't sure exactly what it was. In the meantime, It still hurts. The x-rays don't show anything. Has anyone had a neuroma in this spot?

I have a lump on my forehead that happened in a soccer colision from a few years ago. Any doctors in the house that can give me some info on the lump and any possible methods in bringing it down? It really brings my self esteem down when people notice it. But its not too big, a lot of people that ive known have a revelation when they finally see it and they tell me theyve never noticed it till then. So its almost down. how can I make it go down the rest of the way? and please, no bullish answers such as, i have to embrace myself, or anything like that. I just need answers that are important constructive, and useful.

i have a sprained ankle, and the doctor said to use a splint and if that doesnt work, get crutches. so i was gonna get crutches cuz it hurts really badly to walk on it, but my mom all of a sudden said i cant get them because "i dont need them" and of course i get mad because i do and she doesnt know because she isnt me. how do i tell her that i seriously do need them WITHOUT making her mad at me..cuz ive already asked a ton of times. and she just thinks i want them for fun when im just really in pain...D:

My husband is complaining of knee pain. Here are a few details...he says he didn't injure it recently, but it comes and goes a few times a year. When it hurts he says its always achy. It doesn't hurt when he straightens it. It does hurt when he bends it or puts weight on it. He says the pain goes all the way through his calf, but not above the knee into his thigh. He says it doesn't hurt to touch it, and he doesn't know if either heat or cold makes it feel better or worse. He's 27 years old and had injured his knee in high school. He had to have fluid taken out of his knee over 10 years ago.

I get them at night in my feet and my legs in the morning. I have tried stretching and walking before bed, but it does not help. I am taking
calcium as the pharmacist said it would help.
