If I have short term health insurance, and I go in for chest pain, how difficult will it be for me to get health insurance in the future? I'm in my mid-20's...

Can a fever really cook your brain? i.e. you have a fever but your body feels cold so you stay under the blankets you feel comfortable but to others your body's on fire. Can this fry your brain?

For a few days now I've had pain in my right wrist, forearm, and bicept. It hurts mostly in my wrists(feeling numb), but will spread to my forearm sometimes and my bicept. My right arm feels week.

I want to be a massage therapist(going to school for it) and this is worrying me...alot. I'm going to the doctor on Thursday, but just thought I'd get some info on what it could be before I go.

It's the end of the day, and I've had a headache since 2:00 this afternoon. I've taken 2 extra strength Tylenol and an 800 mg Skelaxin pill — neither have touched it. I'm assuming the headache's from my back and neck being very sore. I've been dealing with 3 different doctor's for my back pain (the neck just started in yesterday) and no one is willing to act aggressively. They've told me to take Advil, Ibuprofen, Aleve, ..... and I ALREADY have — and have told them that, but I think they think I'm going to get addicted to something if they give me anything heavier. I've never been on pain pills before except for when I had my tubes tied, and I didn't even finish the whole prescription. So there's nothing in my past that would give them any indications that I'm prone to addiction or anything. Now that all the medical offices are closed — and not that I have many other choices anyway, should I go to the ER or will it be the same thing there as all the other places I've gone?

This is non-work related. I injured my hand in the area between my fingers and my wrist. I initially experienced a hot sensation followed by a chill in my hand. I went to the doctor and she gave me a comfortable splint to wear at night only because the splint keeps me from doing normal things during the day.

So a couple of weeks pass by and my hand is still aching and if I'm using a tool at my job (especially a screwdriver!!!) I have this sharp pain in that area. I've put an icepack on my hand at night and in the morning. Doctor says that I haven't broken any bones. It is taking forever to heal, and the muscle relaxer and ibuprofen pills aren't helping.

What are some alternative products or methods to use along with the RICE method? I'm trying to Rest, use Ice as much as I can but I'm also looking for employment.

Me and my friend were talking and eventually got stated on groin pains. For both of us, we've had occurences, out of the blue, where we get this pain that literally bowls us over in agony. It is in the groin area and, I'm guessing, probably associated with the balls. Any clues to what is happening down there?

I don't cut that often, only when I need to feel the sting of relief. After I cut I feel like I can finally breath as if I had been holding by breath all day.
