my friend has only had one nose bleed in her life, and it was just because of winter. but this morning she started to bleed and she filled up a whole towel like the size of one youd use after a shower. the bleeding stopped, but her head hurts now. she says its towards the back that hurts. anybody have any cue whats wrong? should she get it checked out?

I've had it for a few days now. it started out the size of a pinhead and now it's the size of this: O

I've tried everything I've known to work--putting some anesthetic gel stuff on it, swish and spit with warm salt water... I even took the (misguided?) advice of my friend and put straight up salt on it. it hurt like all hell but it seemed to help, only I woke up this morning and it was still there. any suggestions as to how I can kill this little bastard? thanks a lot

yesterday i was dancing in the kitchen.. and i balanced on one leg and my knee cap went in on the leg i was balancing on and i lost control and fell over and its really hurt. its still does now. But my boyfriend said.. "you'd really know about it if you had broken it" but im stuggerling to walk on it and bend it. And it looks quite swolen. And i have work tomorrow and the pain when i walk on it and bend it .. is really bad. Do you think theirs any point in gettin it checked out? Because they might just give me a pain relief tablet and a bandage and thats it.

over the past week and a half my left thumb has been painful. It hurts when i stretch it a lot or when a try to massage the joint connecting it to the wrist. I talso hurts a lot when I try to crack the knuckle. I also noticed that a small bony portion portion was stivking out or I may be just paranoid. I can do simple tasks like opening jars, typing and the like without any pain at all. Anyway, I'm 14 and I just came from the beach(if its relevant). i also have not hurt this part of my thumb at all. The pain seems to be subsiding but I'm just making sure its nothing big.

My little brother tripped and his toe popped. He said he popped the toe back in so I am guessing he may have dislocated it? But anyway the toe instantly blead when he hit the carpet and ripped the hole lenght of the cutical but not actuly at the cutical about 1 millimeter above it. So it ripped skin as the cutial is still attached to the nail plus skin. What should we do its been bleeding a ton in the past 2 hrs and he is keeping his foot up and its wraped?

took the medication that usually helps!
I'm having it worse than I would normally if I did not take medication at all.
My boss made me do a lot of walking tonight. I had to walk around the store like 35 minutes doing errands.

Ok well I'm fairly new to skakeboarding and I fell off and I don 't know what I did to my ankle but it hurt so bad when I tried to get up, so I had to crawl over to the sidewalk and sit for a little while. When I felt better I got up went aftermy board and went inside and it was hard to walk and my ankle was still hurting. Well now its been like an hour and my foot is a bit purple/white and very very stiff and hard to move and there are lumps/bumps I kow where not there before, and my foot is a bit swollen. Also it was a bit tingly for about 5 minutes. Did I break it or jsut sprain? My dad felt it but didn't notice anything and won't take me to the doctors and my mom is on the phone and won't let me talk ot her.

As far as I've been able to deduce, pain can best be "managed" by avoidance of it in the first place!...
... meaning that if a few simple areas of our lives are attended to, we will have much less problem with pain!
[No, I don't mean quitting the game!!]

- Exercise - surely this will get the blood pumping, the tissues strengthening, and the toxics and wastes moving appropriately through the system, and strengthen the heart as well [says he, with a sprained left thumb for yesterday's effort!]

- Diet - appropriate attention to meeting all the basics of a balanced diet, without too much junk ... and spacing the different kinds of food - timewise, so as to avoid overloading, congesting and confusing the digestive system and its enzymes, etc.

- Sleep - appropriate rest and avoidance of post mid-night bed entry.
As much as possible, live in the daylight and rest at night light

- Sabbath Day observance - one day, proven by medics, to be humanly necessary. But Spiritual observance rests al
