Injuries - June 2006

ok I was doing gymnastics at cheerleading practice one day and I landed wrong on my ankle and fell. It didnt hurt that bad so I tried to do my skill again. It hurt like heck!! I can walk on it a little, but it is always stinging, and when I move it it cracks a little and I know its not broke, I am going to the doctor in 3 days, but I just would like any suggestions on how to take care of it until I go to the doctor.

I woke up this morning with a really sharp pain in my side. I did nothing earlier that day that could have caused it but sat on my butt. It hurts to walk, twist, and bend down. i had to miss my fastpitch play-offs tonight due to the severity of the pain.
What in the world could have caused this and what could in be.

I have a partial PCL tear in my right knee as well as some partal tearing of the MCL complex from a fall off of one of my horses. I have seen a ortho doc who is pushing me for rehab over surgery. The athletic trainer I have been seeing in rehab says that the PCL doesn't heal well and the next time I get thrown I could end up blowing out my entire knee. I should also mention that I ride and train horses for a living so getting thrown isn't a question of if, more of a question of when. Do I take the 6 months off now and get it fixed or do I go the rehab route and hope for the best.

I accidentally hit my finger last week and my fingernail got a tear. Normally I would just tear off the end of the nail, but if I did that this time, I would take half my finger nail off (painful!!).

I've been trying to protect my finger from coming into contact with anything that might catch it and rip half the nail off, but I'm wondering what else I can do with it.

My wife is on vacation in Florida and stepped on a rusty nail. It pierced her shoe and left a mark on her foot, but her foot did not bleed. She's wondering if she needs to get a tetanus shot ASAP or if she can wait until she's back home.

He likes me to smack him, but how much do I do? When his skin goes red or before? He says he likes me to do that to him, but it hurts my hand, so I started using a slipper.
I don't want to damage his skin, so when do I know when to stop?

I completely tore my MCL and wondered if you normally have to have surgery or if you just have to let it "Run it's course". It is quite painful and has rendered me virtually immobile.

My two big toes are a bit yellow-ish pale in color, and hurt extremely when I apply any sort of pressure on them. I can't go to the doctor, because I don't have the money right now. I can't find a clinic. Just give me some other ideas please. What could this be? Could it mean my running shoes don't fit right? Or maybe something else? And how do I help it heal?

Thanks.

Will muscle relaxers make you tired ? The pain killers make me feel great.

Does anyone know anything about elbow pains around the elbow joint? It doesn't particularly hurt when I flew it so I don't think it's hyperflexed. It has hurt in the joint area for about 3 days. I popped it this morning as well. It commonly pops but not in a relieving way.

Also knee pains that are similar but never pop? Thank you for any help!

i was swiming in the pacific ocean in south carolina and was stung by something.
i dont know what it was i thought it was a jellyfish because thats the only thing i know of that would sting me (i dont live near the ocean i live in Nevada). when i asked the life guard what to do to stop the stinging she said she doesn't think it was a jelly fish she told me what she though it was but i forgot. any wayz she put vinigar on it and that stung really bad.

it is like a hundred little lines that looked like small cuts it turned bright red around where it is. it also looked like whatever it was kinda wrapped around part of my arm but not all the way around. it got kinda hot or a couple of days and now it just looks like i scrached my arm on something. it looks scabbed over and when i feel it it feels like my skin just got realy hard in those spots.
im not worried about it i just want to know because i hate being left in suspence as to what it might have been.

This is what happened: My girlfriend and i were driving down the street doing about 35-40 mph, when out of the blue a stupid pig (they show off too damn much for their own good) hit his lights on and came flying out of some dead end street. as soon as he did this my girfriend slammed on her breaks and my body went flying forward. The piglet stoppped and let us go past him since we were already almost past him when he decided to do this stupid stunt. Everysince then, I've been having these weird pains going up the back of my neck as if I got some kind of whiplash or something. It feels as if I've kept my neck in some akward position and no matter what I do to try and relieve the pain, it still hurts.
what do you think?
