It is back pain, or in the limbs, mainly the joints. Yet I never get headaches.

I know really nothing about "pain" not attributed to something else. Is this a serious problem? Will it get worse? Is it, like, a thing? Like a condition? What should I do? How can I find out more about what it might be?

Had neck pressure (intense pressure, complete NIGHTMARE!) about 18-20 months ago, for a hole year.

Had been to doctors, they believed it to be depression / anxiety and prescribed ciprilex but was took off it after a month (even though it helped) because the age was changed to 18 years. (16 at the time lasted til this year 2007 - now 18)

It's a very intense pressure from the back of my neck to the very front. It feels like the muscles are always tense, and worn out, and you can really feel it, it's like it's contracted and it's trying to pop my head off.

Doctors believe it's mental, but I believe it is completely physical, the effects are terrible, and even though I'm a relatively strong person it does really put me down.

It's only been with me now for 2-3 days but I don't want to go through another year or longer. A year back I went A&E 2 times it got so bad. They said panic attacks :@ bs

I've tried aspirin an heat/cold pads. Any ideas. ty

For the past few months, whenever I wake up I get terrible leg cramps, in my calves.

I usually happens as I stretching. Nothing like yoga or work out, just normal stretching. I get a horrible pain in one leg or sometimes even both and sometimes the soreness will last for days. The cramp, or whatever it is, usually passes in a few minutes.

I'm not sure what would cause it. I've RLS (Restless Leg Syndrom) my entire life, but it never cause these kind of problems. I asked my mom, and she said the same thing happened to her at my age (I'm fifteen) but it went away. She also has RLS.

Is there anyway to stop, or at least ease, the pain? What will get rid of the soreness in the following days since normal pain relievers don't work? What could be causing it?

My Dad was found on the floor of his home a week ago and he had urinated on himself and couldn't get up to get help. He's gone from a independent guy who's very short tempered and always on the go to a child like state with limited memory and mobility. The doctors say he had a major stroke aswell as full blown diabetes. He just sleeps and doesn't remember alot of things that he should. He acts and talks like a child and says things that make no sense. They want to put him in a rehabilitation center. I can't comprehend how this happened to him and why he's like this now. The same thing happened to my mom bu hers being a lil more serious having to have brain surgery and somehow she's as she was before except for her left leg having poor circulation. The doctors don't explain much. He doesn't remember much. I ask alot but don't accomplish much. Can I help him? Will he regain what's forgotten? He's 54 partied like a rockstar has a 28 yr old GF . Now talks to stuffed toys.

I have a pain at the base of my skull on the right side. My head aches when I lay down. It feels like a bruise when I touch it but I have not banged it. It feels as though there is a swelling. It has been there for some weeks and seems to be getting worse. I keep thinking that if I forget it it will go away, but sleeping is difficult. Will it just go away?

My husband was installing a radio on a boat today and it was a bit more involved than he expected, so he had to do some drilling...and now he has fiberglass splinters in his hands and arms. He tried using packing tape on them to get them out but he didnt have much luck. Does anyone know any tricks or secrets? I really appreciate any feedback! Thank you!

i have been to 4 doctors, and 1 sports therapist, over the past 6 years, trying to find relief for what i think is severe shin splints. In addition i have asked my track and field coach (when i was on the team) and a college basketball coach, and my football coach how to get rid or at least help the pain in my legs. Whenever i run, sometimes walk, or even use my legs at all, i get insane shooting pains, extreme soreness, and movement imparing pains all over my calves. These have been getting worse little by little over at least 6 years, and im only 14 years old and im worried for how my condition might be in the future, especially because i am active in highschool football, and love it. is there any suggestions for what i should do to help make the pain go away? besides pain killers seeing how i take 6 IBprofen a day and the pain is barely weakened. i also ice, stretch, excersize, and i have custom orthotics that are supposed to be helping me. please please try to help me. thanks

I usually only smoke about once a week or less.
I know it's bad for my lungs, but I was just wondering if the weed could be the cause me getting phlegm in them the day after, I thought it would cause that over time, not just right away.
