General Health Care - April 2007

My pain started in my hands and arms everyone thought it was carpal tunnel. However, the balls of my feet have been hurting for the last three weeks. I have also had occasional pain in my legs. Some days the pain is less than others, but I am never completely pain free. This has been going on for about four months now. I have been to the doctor and he ruled out Arthritis with some blood tests. Has anyone heard of such symptoms?

I know that they dont want any medical treatment, but what would be the best way to provide care for them if they come to your hospital (for e.g, in case of fractured bone- they allow physical healing like that, but not medical)?
e.g. you can ask them how they want to be treated...
stuffs like that! But I'd like more suggestions though for me research!
Thank you,

He then tried rubbing it down with heat ointment. Then all of a sudden the pain shot up his leg. So much pain that he became immobile for the rest of the evening. He took some Tylenols and in the morning he was alright. What could it have been. He described it like a ball building up on the outside of the foot in front of the ankle socket. Can this be an indicator or something.

I am a 50 year old male and I have pain in my right leg between the hip and the knee that just won't go away. I have tried a chiropractor and my regular doctor with no luck. The regular doctor says it might be arthritis but he is not sure. The pain is really intense when driving a vehicle while pushing on the gas or brake. So here are my questions.

1. Does anyone have this problem that could tell me what they think my problem might be?

2. Could it be my Hip?

3. What type of doctor should I see?

4. What is the best pain killer for this type of problem that I could take daily?

Thanks in advance for your help. It is really appreciated.


If you have more questions please ask and I will reply with more detail.

I have back problems, have pains on the lower back, the nexk and have pretty bad posture. I feel as if my back bones are squished together, not allowing me to grow to much extent, and i belive bodybuilding has contributed to it. Whom should i see to help me, help my back, stretch it, treat back pain, a chiropractor or an osteopath?

Okay so about at the beginning of the year..actually i cant remember exactly when but anyways i was at a basketball camp and i fell on my knee pretty hard and before then it hadnt given me much problems. about 3 hours later we were just finishing test driving a car when i noticed my knee had swelled up and it looked like there was a baseball under my skin it was really high. so my mom took me to the emergency room and once we got into the place they took xrays and applied ice and just said i had blood/water under my knee (i cant remember exactly which) well ever since then while participating in ANY activity gives me great pain in that knee (actually more recently its gotten worse) i also feel at least 2 "chunks" of bone on my knee cap and i can move them around (at least i think its bone) they are about the size of a BB maybe smaller but i am wondering is this causing my knee pain? what can they do to fix this? can they fix this? should i see my doctor?

Thank you so much
