So is this just a muscle thing or heart realated?

The interview:

How long have you had the injury?

How did the injury occur?

What are your symptoms?

How are you being treated for it?

Is the injury related to, or aggravated by, you job?

Where exactly is the injury located on your back?

Is there a way of preventing this type of injury?

I would very much appreciate it if I could hear from someone who has suffered from a back injury to answer these questions as best as they can. Thanks!

A possible spider bite that was untreated might have caused blood cloting in a leg months later.

I was in a bad car accident about 3 months ago. The car flipped 3 times. By some miracle I was okay except for wiplash. For the most part it is better but my right shoulder area still hurts. I get that electical therapy thing done to it 3 times a week and I am doing light weights to help the area but are there more things I can do? Maybe homeopathic or some kind of special stretching? Maybe a better therapy than the electrical stimulation machine?

I have 2 herniated discs in my back (L5/S1, L4). I've been injured w/o specific treatment for the discs for a year. It took 3 1/2 months for pain to go from my back to my leg (w/glute and hip pain developing steadily during that time). I've been decently, but not overly, active. Does it usually take that long?

My husband injured his knee while working 5 years ago.The doctor was ready to do surgery,then decided to just do physical therapy.His knee has bothered him ever since but alot lately.It was workman's comp,he changed employers.Now nobody covers this injury.The only way to heal is with surgery that nobody covers and he needs 6 months to recover.We cannot afford to be without pay and to pay $20,000 for surgery,unless we move to Europe :-) and file for banctruptcy....

I stepped off the curb yesterday morning and compltely rolled my ankle outward. It hurt for a minute and then I was able to walk normally with just some soreness. By later that day I was in extreme pain and could not walk on it much. It still hurts alot today in the joint area, where the ankle and foot meet. But still no swelling. Is this most likely just a sprain?

Yesterday I wore a pair of sterling silver earrings. I took them out when I got home from work and noticed my left ear was a little red and swollen on the ear lobe. Today it is still very swollen and is even tender and swollen behind my ear on my neck. Any suggestions?

A month ago the side of my right knee went numb after a weekend long backpacking trip. A month later it wasn't better, so I went to the doctor. She said it could take up to 2 months to clear up and not to worry unless it got worse or changed somehow. Well a week later, my foot is starting to have the feeling that it is going numb. It is actually from the very bottom of my calf muscle all the way to my foot. I have an appointment with the doctor on tuesday of next week... just a few days away, but I am wondering if I should not push to be seen by the doctor tomorrow morning. It is not normal for apendages to go numb!

I dropped a heavy object on it. It has been bleeding for about 1.5 hours. Will ice help this? It is also swelling.
