ok so my knee has been bothering me for about a month now and it hasn't gotten better, it's gotten worse. It started out with just having pain when standing up from a squatting position. Now i'm having pain when my knee is bent like sitting indian style and something touches the outside upper half of the knee. anyone ever had this problem.

I have been having extreme back pain with sharp pains shooting down my leg. I had an MRI and was advised I have a bulged disc. They advised me going to a pain clinic. Is anyone know what they do there and are there any suggestions on how to ease my pain. My Dr. pretty much said I was out of luck.

I'm only 23 years old and have been running for 10 years and have never had any injuries or pain until now. I haven't been to the doctor because i don't have health insurance, but i'm sure its runner's knee because i researched it pretty well. I'm about to have a break down because i can't run and before i lived for running. Its beeing hurting for about a month now.. and i've completely stopped running. What else can i do to make it go away? I try to do strengthening exercises for my quads but it hurts when i do them :( is there any hope that this will go away?

Right now I am going to school to get my associates in nursing and by the summer of 2008 I will be an RN (Yay!). I live on Long Island and I know the starting salary is about $60,000 (without differentials) at the [private] hospital I work for (as opposed to a state or government hospital). Also, the hospital will pay for you to continue with your education (i.e. bachelors/masters) as long as you get above a certain GPA, which sounds good to me (current GPA 4.0 nursing, 3.4 cumulative).

My boyfriend and I might relocate to NC and I heard that nurses don’t make good money there. Any nurses out there that might want to help out here? Or does any one know any good websites that I can get this information from? (Not just average salaries, I'm talking average STARTING salaries of RN's).

When I take the weight off of my foot I get a very sharp pain where the break was. It's worse in cold weather, is it likely to always be this way?

My boyfriend has torn a muscle in his shoulder at work, many months ago. He's been to the docs and that, but it is still sore sometimes when he hasn't used it for a while. He is starting to build the muscle back up my rotating hot and cold pressures, lifting cans and muscle rub/massages. Is there anything else that anyone could suggest to help his healing process?

My whole arm has been hurting since this summer, especially my wrist. A few nights ago, it felt like someone was banging on my elbow, making pain shoot up halfway my arm, and then back down. It feels like poison is being injected into my veins, and my wrist is also in pain. Any idea what this COULD be?
