i have this pain in my right ear. and it kind of spreads along the corner of my jaw and my cheek bone. i've got some prescription drops i had used for a previous ear infection but they expired in october.
this feels like an ear infection but it just popped up today, didnt have any problems last night or yesterday. i'm sick of going to the doctors. (i just had a baby and those damn prenatal visits get you damn sick of this ****) would it be okay to use those drops? or is there anything around the house i could use? how long should i wait if the pain persists before i go to the doctor?

I had a pretty bad nosebleed tonight. Did nothing to cause it, just sitting on the couch watching TV. But what scared me was the huge bloodclot like thing that came out with the blood. The blood was just pouring out of my nose. I'm 31 and haven't had one since I was 5. Can stress and/or depression cause this to happen?

I went to throw the ball and as I approached the line to release the ball, it felt like someone threw an ice ball at my calf!!! It hurt(s) so bad, I could hardly walk! My calf is swollen.......unsure if I pulled a muscle or what.......don't think it's a charliehorse because I couldn't work it out. Should I put ice or heat on it?

Couple of days ago i over done it on the treadmill (don't work out angry) and hurt my knees. Went to the doctor and he said it was just sore muscles. I've always heard to work out through sore muscles so they don't stiffen. Do i get back on the treadmill or should i just wait it out a couple days till my knees feel better? I had just sitting around.

Thanks

i have had severe back pain for several months now. i recently had an mri done and went to my doctor today for the results. she told me that i have severalbuldged disks but that is normal for a person my age<29> and that from what she has seen on the mri i shouldnt have as much pain as i say i have . then she did a resistence test on my legs and i was unable to raise my left leg against the resistence of her hand. again she insisted that the mri didnt suggest anything that would cause leg weakness.. i guess what it all boils down to is that she is calling me a liar,and saying i am faking symptoms to get pain meds, but that is not true i do have severe chronic pain,and it keeps me from participating in normal daily activities someone give me a suggestion or at least tell me if the buldged disks are normal or capable of causing my pain then i will consider finding a new doctor or at least reporting my findings to my current doctor to see what she has to say

I lay down alot and put my feet up...everyday I wake up with back pains and neck pains. They aren't severe but than later in the day I begin to have headaches sometimes and the neck pains begin to get worse.

I sleep on my side always and I use 2 pillows or I sleep on my stomach I can't sleep on my back! I never do!
