My mom is always suffering from the pain caused by her migraine. Are there any ways to at least relief the pain besides tablets? She always drinks them but they don't always work. Any idea would help.

Was wondering if anyone knows why most doctors office's check the blood pressure on the right arm instead of the left? Talked to a nurse and she told me thats was standard.

I get this sharp pain the the back of my head when ever I look up and to the right, sometimes just when I look to the right... with my eyes not my neck. The pain seems to shoot through my right eye to the back of my head.. on the right side. I was wondering if anyone knows what could cause this and how to get rid of it. The severe pain is only when I look in those directions, but a very minor pain continues after the initial pain is gone.

I've been diagnosed with a rare/obscure disease called Eosinophilic Esophagitis and have been given prednisone for it ....10 MG four times a day for the first five days, then three times a day for the next five, then two for the next five, then one for the next five, then 1/2 a tablet for the next five. I started the drug three days ago, Tuesday afternoon. Two questions: how long before I start feeling its effects (pain relief...please Lord!) and second, what are the side effects? I am a 42 year-old 5'3" 140 pound female. Thanks!

Will nerve get in between anywhere in TMJ(nerve trap in socket, disc, etc that it shouldn't)? Pls don't answer it if u don't know. I know I need to check with doctor or oral surgeon or dentist.

I have TMJ for about a month now and at the begining there were click sound when I open or chew food, also have problem opening mouth(very slow). I had headache, neck and sholder pain.

But it's locked this week as I can only open my mouth that can allow only a size of a middel finger going through.

And today, it seems I can open up a very little bit more(2-3mm) but I had 3 of serve headache(left top center) just for a split second. 2 times when I was eating(chewing on right molar) and my jaw had some side way movement. 1 time when I tried to move my neck to the right.

I'm scare because those headache is so quick but it was quite painful. Will nerve get in between anywhere inside TMJ(socket, disc, etc) ? I'm worried that maybe nerve get in between so it cause these pain?
