I hurt my back a couple days ago lifting something too heavy, it's been KILLING me for the last two days. Well besides the fact that I did it at work.....my boss is happy with my work right now, and wanted to give me either a paid day off, or a massage....I TOTALLY want to go with the massage because my back's hurting so much, do you think a misuse would better or worsen the way my back feels?

Everynight it seems now I am getting this throbbing feeling in my knees, mostly it happens when I lay down for the night or have been driving. It's soo annoying because it prevents me from getting a good nights sleep. Lately its becoming more and more painful... is there anything I can take to stop the throbbing in my knees?

Usually when I twist an ankle it only hurts for a few days. This one has been hurting for two weeks. The pain is mild and not constant, but it seems like it has lasted too long.

Now I'm starting to sleep a better, do you think there is a possibility that my bags could still go away after 3 months? The bags only developed when I stopped getting sleep and I drink a lot of water daily. Also you could give me some suggestions on getting rid of them, thanks!

doing anything which requires the hand to be in the same position - simple task like holding a broom or even managing the mouse also causes it to "cramp" , doesn't take long for it to start cramping (within 4 - 5 minutes),

My two-year old son burned his hand on a curling iron. The burn area is between his thumb and index finger. The first couple of days I treated it with triple antibiotic ointment and covered it with guaze and paper tape. Do I need to keep covering it? Will it ever heal if it never has a chance to dry out and form a scab?

I work on a computer at work which strains my eyes. I do take my breaks etc..BUT my lens wear out way too fast. I wear Acuvue 2 (2 week ones) and I use Renu cleanser. I wear the lens approximately 10 - 12 hours a day. Is that way too long? My lens wear or rip in about a week maybe a couple days longer. Are there certain cleansers that work better or am I wearing those suckers too long? I use eye drops too by the way. Thanks!

In Sept. 06, My son was hit in the back of the head with a shopping cart, through my own investigation, at the base of his spinal cord. That night he had his first seizure. He was given an MRI in emergency. They told me he had something abnormal meaning something had not finished growing with the rest of his brain. He has had 2 more since. He is being medicated with Kepra.2cc am and 3cc pm. He is sceduled to have another MRI this month, Should I question the doctors, or should I focus more on what happened with the shpping cart being the cause? I am told head trauma can cause seizures. I don't want my son to be medicated for a misdiagnosis. Please help. Jennifer

Four years ago i tore my ACL and had to have it replaced this year, after the entire muscle had deteriorated away (i didn't know it was torn, my doctor left that part out). What I want to know is: if I had caught it four years ago, would it have been possible to simply repair *my* acl instead of having to get a new one?

Whenever I have a virus, or when I am about to have one come out, my lips become very dry and chapped and they will stay that way for the duration of the illness. What is causing this? I always drink plenty of fluids, and my mouth never dries. It is just the lips.
