What is happening when you "crack" your knuckles / neck?
Can it hurt you down the line?

I have chronic back pain and my GP doesn't know why, although I have been diagnosed with MS. I take morphine for the pain but the morphine is making me itchy, sick and tired, don't know if that's side effects or not, been on it two years, take 100mg+ per day. I also have started to feel severely depressed, is this the morphine, the back pain or me? Depressed to the point where I can't get out of bed and face the day, I have spent the last few weeks mainly sleeping and exhausted but also feeling very tired and ill, how can I start motivating myself to get up and face the day and is it the morphine that is causing this terrible crushing depression? I have never felt this bad inside before and fear that I can't hold it together much longer.

It's really weird and it just started recently (as in last few months). I am on other meds but have asked a pharmacist who says there is no adverse reaction and that everything mixes fine. I throw up almost everytime and I am looking for what the science of it might be, so please no "I don't know, just quit taking them" - not to sound snippy. :) Thanks!

I'm a young male, and I have been getting weird stomach pains in the third day in a row now...let me describe them

About every minute, it feels like my stomach just tightens up almost, or as if someone is punching me in my stomach. The pain is there for about 10 seconds, then goes away and comes back a minute later. This is the third day it's happening. It's about where the ribs start to seperate and the top of the muscles.

I also went to the bathroom and did a number two, but it was kind of like diarheaa. I really dont feel well right now and my stomach is sorta growling. I might take some midol after i eat but im not sure what i should eat. Someone please help me and i will love you forever. The pain im going through is unexplainable;and i really need help. I'm going to the doc. fri. but i cant wait.HELP

I have black stuff under both of my eyes, i know at my age, i shouldn't worry about it but i do. The black stuff are mostly from not sleeping well but i can't just sleep more because of some personal issues. Does anyone know a way that makes the black eyes less obvious without spending too much money?

i have had these pains in both my hands for about 4 months from now. they became prominent when i started playing racquet ball. so i stopped it but i have to use the computer a lot and i think thats what is causing it. anyway the problem is that both the thumbs are always swollen and so weak that i cant even button up my shirt properly. recently my left index finger has also swollen and there is a sharp pain in my right wrist whenever i turn it(opening a door for ex). both the middle fingers in my hand hurt when i try to make a fist with my hand. they hurt where the connect to the palm. I started using a brace since 2 days on the right hand and the swelling on the right thumb has reduced considerably. the pain in the wrist isnt gone though. i have been delaying to see the doctor because I am out of job and almost broke. do you think i need to see a doctor? if so what kind should i see. please help me out. thanks.

Hi,

I have started an excercise program and it hurt my thigh (back thigh). On Monday I started with 10 min walking. then I did leg extension and leg curl- 12/set and 3 sets. Yesterday I didn't do any leg exercise but did for arm and 20 min rowing.

I had no pain while I was excercising. But yesterday night onwards, I have this horrible pain at the back thighs and unable to walk properly. can anyone tell what it is and how can I take care of it?
