Ok - I know I will eventually need surgery, but today isn't that day. Has anyone used any home remedies that have helped to ease the pain?

I have been struggling with an SI disorder and a serious arthritis problem in my right hip. So much so that I can't be on my feet longer than 10 minutes at a time. Walking is almost impossible. I also have pain on the left side of my right shin so I believe it must be some sort of an alignment problem. I have no pain when I am off the hip or when I sleep unless I have been on my feet too much during the day. The left side of my back, my hip and my leg have no pain. I saw an orthopedist who said I could have my hip replaced, but I was pretty young, I could have injections. But it seems to me that fixing the hip, isnt necessarily going to fix the back or the shin. What kind of medical professional has the knowledge to help me with this problem in its entireity?

I am 55 and quite healthy but my knees hurt, do not work very well and are weak. For instance, I dare not squat down because I would never be able to get up. I don't know what it is. I never have any swelling, redness, or heat. I do not fit the profile of arthritis, as far as I know. Any suggestions? And would exercising my knees make them stronger or just wear them out quicker?

What are some good ways to ease arthritis pain? I don't want to take any prescription medications and moving to a warmer climate isn't an option ~ at least not yet :-) Some facts about me: I am 26, try to exercise daily, and eat very, very healthy. Please help...I am in a lot of pain!

Whenever i am laying down or sitting down for too long my hips and legs start hurting terribly. It radiates down to my knees sometimes, and it seems like if i'm laying on my side, the hip that is up hurts, but not the other one. They pain goes away if i get up and walk around for a while. Anyone got any advice?

I also recently got hit in the hard from point blank range when I played soccer this morning. Immediately afterwards, my head started aching and my neck still tingles whenever I turn my neck in slow motion.

Is there any medicine or anything I should do prevent me from me dying due to a brain tumor excessive whiplash(damage to the brain)?

Ok, extensive blood work in. Everything ok except chloresterol 210. Urinealysis ok. Kidney x rays ok.
Doctor placed this 50 year old man on tremador and vicon for pain in lower back right side. I have this pain for 3 weeks now and no let up in sight.
What should I do next or what might it be? Pain pills give me relief, but underlying pain still there.
I have never been to a chiorpractor in my life> Is this an option? Thanks. Any comments appreciated.

Hello. I was in a car accident about 5 years ago and had to have a complete reconstruction on my right ankle with a plate and 3 screws. Now it seems that at least one of the screws is making its way back out of the bone and is extremely painful. I have been sent for a consult for ortho surgery to have one or more of them removed, and I have no idea what to expect. Has anyone had surgery like this before? What kind of recovery time are we talking about? Is it as painful as the original operation? Thanks for any advice ^_^

I had a respitory infection and have been on antibiotics for about 5 days. Now my throat is so sore in the very back, on the left side, that I can feel it when I breathe it hurts so bad. It hurts to swallow, and even my ear is hurting. Should I go back to the dr or does anyone have any home remedies for this? Thanks for any suggestions!!

It is only my right hand but it has been happening lately. It may be because I have been typing too much on the computer though I am a little bit scared. Thank You.

Just out of curiosity, when performing CPR is taking off the shirt mandatory?
Because it seems like it would be in bad taste to take off a woman's shirt in a populated area. If taking off the shirt is a must, you could at least leave the bra on right?
