3 years ago I had a spinal cord injury which left me without the use of my right foot....after a lot of exercise & perseverance it's slowly beginning to get better & I've regained partial use of the foot even though doctors said the injury was permanent....since the accident the muscle running down the back of my upper leg [hamstring] often goes into cramp.....when I attempt to do like butt exercises for example by laying on my back & with knees bent....lift up the lower part of my body my hamstring totally cramps up....it also happens at times while I'm sat at my computer but when I straighten my leg it goes away.....any suggestions please as I really want to get on with more exercises but this damned thing is holding me back slightly.......do you think it needs more stretching? it doesn't happen in my other leg, just the one that was injured......Thanks guys for your help......

i have got a foul taste in mouth, especially when I swallow, and my mouth feels like it is coated with something. My lips feel like they are burning. However my breath does NOT smell.

Both my dentist and doctor say my mouth looks health. its driving me nuts.

i changed my diet radically in January and have lost 19lb in weight. Stopped having bread, sweet stuff, and crap. I now have a super healthy diet.

Any one have a clue what it could be causing the taste?

My nephew who is 7 years old had a motorbike accident. His foot was severely damaged, sole tissues were scraped, the achilles tendon was cut short and calcaneus bone was severely damaged that the first doctor mistakenly removed it. Now he has difficulty walking, he felt intense pain whenever he use his right foot, he walks on tiptoe so he is depending on crutches. Wounds are healed too. What can be the best treatment for this child? If ever, will he be able to walk, run normally as he used to do? Please advice.

We sweat a lot and the heart rate goes up just like when we exercise so it would seem logical that we are burning calories right?

Surely its not healthy to wake up when we havent had enough sleep, but if we go to bed early we are wide awake.

got so bad I literally had to let my arm lay limp for almost two weeks. If I accidentally moved it (as a normal reaction to grab something, etc) it hurt so bad I would yell involuntarily, lol. It's not funny actually cause it hurt so bad even when I wasnt moving it that I almost started crying and I dont cry because of pain. So anyways, it went away and I wrote it off to sleeping on it wrong or something. But then two weeks after that arm healed my other one did the EXACT same thing. Really strange. What could this be? Just bad luck to sleep on both shoulders wrong in the same month?

It started yesterday. I was hoping it would go away by today but every 5 minutes or so it comes back. When it's most intense, it feels like piercing or pressure in a small area (not large area). Sometimes it goes away about 5 minutes an sometimes it linger on mildly for many minutes or even hours.

Previously I had a different type of pain in my chest and I had an ekg done but there was no problem.

There is no history of heart disease in my family.

I think if it doesn't go away by tomorrow, I will definitely go to the doctor but if it's normal, is there anything i can do?
