I am doing a research project for school about crutches. I’ve heard from different people that crutches are very uncomfortable and unsafe.

My first question is what exactly makes crutches uncomfortable and unsafe? Could you give any suggestions on what type of enhancements would make crutches safer, and more comfortable?

a lot of times, i wonder do i really need all of this
medicine that the doctor is selling me? And if i w
anted to get off of some of it. which ones do i let
go? seem like more times than not, when i go to
the doctor, they find reasons for me to go back t
o the drug store. But im glad that i dont try to be
myown doctor, because i perhaps would be dea
d, or real sick right now? i have a sister who hav
e everything wrong with you, bothering her in one
way or another. but she wont take on being men
taly ill, when it comes to that, she quickly draws
the line. and will get angry with you, and be read
y to fight you, if you try to prove tht she is that w
ay. i hope that oneday that doctors will find a cur
e for sugar, high blood, arthritis, gouch, poor circ
ulation, strokes, and heart trouble. and help peop
le to understand that life and the will to live, succ
eed and survive. dont stop because you get up i
n age? life successfully goes on as long as you want it to, so live.

I'm a senior in high school, and I've been running since I was in 9th grade. I love it so much. This past season I did my best ever in Cross Country and I had a great time. I took two weeks off, and started running again with plans to complete a marathon by this year. Within just a few weeks, I started to get this pain on the outside of my left knee, ITBS. I've done EVERYTHING to get it away. I've done all the exercises for it, I've gone to the doctor, I've looked at every known website about it, and done every stretch daily, iced it daily, taken NSAIDS, and I haven't run or anything in over a month. The worst part is, it's still there and it will not go away. I got an MRI and all they said was that it's swollen, and I don't think that's right. PLEASE, somebody, ANYBODY, give me advice. I want to run again so bad, and I'm so depressed that I can't run or enjoy any sports with my friends. Please shed any knowledge. Thank you.

I just got over the flu and I was blowing it A LOT...The strange thing is that it is sore at the top like the bridge of my nose and it only hurts when I cough, or bend over so baiclly when blood rushes to that area. Like I said it's the TOP of the nose and has NOTHING to do with the nostrils. It almost feels like it's bruised is this a possibility?

I just burned my arm with hot water and I'm trying to figure out if it's 1st or 2nd degree. It's been about 2 hours and it's red and slightly swollen right now.

I have a doc apt. this afternoon, but I am just really curious now. I have had a red spot on my shin for a little over a week. It feels like a bad bruise, but it has never changed colors(its red). My leg around it is a little swollen and the skin is warm to touch. I am paranoid that it is a blood clot. Do blood clots feel like bruises?

I ate some hot spinach, not realising just how very hot it was until too late. I don't know why I didn't detect the heat before it went down my throat, but the pain as it went through me on the inside was excruciating, and as I went to sit down, I fainted, before shaking upon awakening. Is this inner burn, or shaking, much cause for concern?

I want one that has heat and massage and is really comfy and not too heavy or expensive.

I think I saw them at Sharper Image or Brookstone once.

I'm currently on Methadone for chronic pain in back, from a severe injury. I'm seeing a pain specialist, and he has tried everything under the sun. I've been seeing him for almost 3years now. Finally, he has me on Methadone pills, 10mg. per pill. I'm advised to take 100mgs a day, in even doses (20mgs 5x per day) well, I did that for about a year...It doesn't seem to help me. My pain doctor will not give me anymore than the 100mgs a day, he does from time to time give me Oxycodone to take in between. My question is, why can't he give me a higher dosage than 100mgs a day? Since I have been on them for so long. Has anyone been on methadone for a long period of time taking more than 100mgs a day? Just unable to bare the pain, need something...open to suggestions.

This morning on my way into school, I slipped on the icy floor just inside the door of the building and caught myself from falling. However, this really hurt my neck, with sharp, shooting pains from the nape down into my shoulder- it was on my left side only. By the time I got to the nurse's office, I could not put my head straight up, and 3 hours later I still can't. Everytime I try there is severe (and I'm no baby when it comes to pain) shooting pains that last, and so my head must remain almost completely to one side, just over my right shoulder. It is constantly aching, even after max amounts of ibuprofen. I have a doctor's appointment for later but am not sure if they are competent enough to reach an answer.

What's going on here?!?
