Ive been having pain when I push lightly on my L hip area actually right on the iliac crest bony prominent. Also when I walk, as I step down and put weight on it, it is very umcomfortable, but it seems like it gets worse if I sit for a while then walk, then pain is almost unbearable. Doesnt really hurt much when I lay down on my back and lift my leg up or put it outward, only when I have weight on it. The pain is hard to explain, but almost like a burning, radiating pain. Not sharp or shooting. This had come on a few months ago little by little, and it seems like its getting worse every week. I did not fall nor do I remember doing anything that caused extreme pain all of the sudden or that may have brought on an injury. I know I need to be seen to be diagnosed and treated but I was just wondering if anyone eperienced this or anyone in the medical field ever seen anything like this? Thanks for your time..

I got into a fist fight with my brother four days ago and during the fight I took a heavy blow to the back of my head. There was a flash of light and obviously it hurt a lot. I also had a spell of nausia afterwards.

I was not concerned at the time but now four days later I still have the same nagging headache. I have also found myself more tired than usual and having trouble concentrating. I have lost balance occassionally and had to physically catch myself but have yet to actually fall down.

I have had two concussions in the past so I am worried this might be a third. Does it sounds like I have a concussion?

On saturday night I felt like I was getting an middle ear infection. Sunday and monday the pain got worse, Tuesday it was the worst, I couldn't talk, chew, close or open my mouth all the way. After feeling around, I felt a bump (similar to a knuckle) in front of my ear around the condyle, i've never had this bump before and it's not present on the right side of my head. The pain is less today, but it's still very painful to move my mouth. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the problem is an if this condition has a name.

Thanks.

OK, soooo last night I was in new orleans and slipped down a flight of stairs...well, like 6 or 7 stairs...it hurt really bad and at first I couldnt really breathe. I could walk but everything hurt really really bad. Today I woke up and my back is sore, my ribs feel sore, my side is sore, and my leg is sore. Also on my leg I have a HUGE bruise, like the size of my hand. And as the day as gone on, its gotten bigger. Do you think theres a chance I fractured a rib? Or maybe theres internal bleeding? I'm still having a hard time breathing and everything hurts when I move. What should I do??

I have severe osteoarthritis in my hips and knees. I am not allowed to use and NSAIDs such as advil - no anit-imflamitories. This leaves me with Narcotics, which I hate taking, because I am afraid of addiction and can not drive when I take them. My pain is severe and often brings me to tears. I am looking for any ideas that might help me.

I went snowboarding on Tuesday and it was uber icy and slushy. I decided, hey. I think I'm going to go on a double black, so I was riding along the side of a trail and someone cut me off and her skis got caught on my board. My board got caught on this wire that holds up something else and I ended up flipping. I recall landing on my head. And from there, I bounced off my head and landed on my stomach. I believe I blacked out for a solid minute.

Yesterday, my neck was fine. Sore in one spot. Today, I wake up... and it is completely... @#$O(*!#@$. I can barely move it at all, mainly to the right. It's a bit swollen as well. It hurts to move my shoulder, and I definitely cannot bend my head down at all.

I'm not able to go to a doctor until Sunday & they're never opened on Sundays, so my only chance is on Monday. Is there anything I can do in the meantime to make it feel better? I'm going away on a trip for All-States, so I won't be home at all. Anything I could bring to help me?

Can someone suggest something that help me be more energetic so I'll can have more strength to to the things I want to. Also, I heard that eating apple gives you more energy; is that true?

What's the fastest and safest way to treat a minor dog bite on your stomach? I tried Neosporin and it still stings. It was my dog, so I know that all of his shots are updated, so I'm not worried about disease, just scarring and infection.

First of all I would like to say that I went to my university's health service clinic today, but all they did was give me a pregnancy test. I have an appointment with my regular doctor at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, so please do not put "SEE A DOCTOR" or anything like that as your answer. I'm just curious as to whether anyone else has had these symptoms before and what their diagnosis was.

I woke up around 4:00 a.m. today with SEVERE stomach pain... probably the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. It was so bad that I had a hard time even sitting up or standing. About an hour later I felt nauseous and started throwing up. I was really sick for about two hours, then I went back to sleep. When I woke up a couple hours later, the constant stabbing pain was gone, but I have a sharp pain in my lower right abdomen every time I move, cough, etc. If I put any pressure on the right side of my stomach, it is really painful. I also have a fever of 100.1 degrees.

Has anyone had this before?

Yesterday I attended a cardio kickboxing class. Today I feel as if I have a knot in my right calf. Overall I am a little sore from the class which I expected, but as the day has progressed, my right calf seems to be getting tighter and tighter and almost feels like if I am not careful it may spasm. Are there any stretches I can do? I would love to attend another class tomorrow evening.
