Injuries - August 2006

I go running and my feet start burning at the bottom. It gets to the point that I have to stop. I wear socks and I actually have clean feet so it's not a matter of me having some kind of athlete's foot or anything like that. I've tried wearing two pairs of socks and that just makes it worse! I think it's from the friction of my shoes and bottom of my feet - It mostly happens in the area of my pinkie toes. I was going to try some gel soles to put in, but I'm not quite sure. Have any of you had this problem? If so, what did you do to fix it? Thanks so much for your help. XO

it didn't hurt that bad when it got broke but will it hurt bad to have it fixed correctly? Also about how much would it cost?

I had surgery on my abdomin last week. Where my incision is looks like it is healing faster on one side then the other. The side that is not healing as fast kinda pouches out but is not tight like it is swollen. I have been told that it may be a blood clot. Does anyone know what this may be?

I sprianed (so I'm told) my rotator cuff aprox 3 weeks ago. I still have swelling and deformity in the scapular area. I do a very physical job and am supposed to return to work next week. I still have a lot of pain whenever I use my arm, but especially when reaching over my head or behind my back. I do the exercises that were given to me at physio, but have seen very little improvement. Any idea how much longer this will take before I regain normal function? (or if I should be making a lot of noise at the doctors office - I think this injury is worse than what I've been told)

I have been told that I need to have the surgery completed. I was wondering if anyone has had it done and what the results were. Are you glad that you went ahead with the surgery?

I've been having problems for a long time with shoulder pain, and it has gotten worse. I am now convinced that there is a pinched nerve in my shoulder, which is causing nerve pain from the shoulder all the way to my fingertips. My hand keeps going numb, and the pain is unbearable.

I have an appointment with a chiropractor for Monday. But I work in an office, in a secretarial position, and the pain is making my job impossible. My left arm is pretty much useless like this, and I need to type all day. The pain is completely unbearable.

I've tried painkillers and they haven't done any good. I can't find any good position to ease the pain. I have a splint for my wrist due to tendonitis, so that part is pretty much immobilized, but it isn't stopping the pain or the numbness. Is there anything I can do to control this until Monday? I can't miss a whole week of work, but I can't really do my job like this.

I think it's kind of minor. I moved a big bag of dog food yesterday and now my lower back, SI joint area, is stiff and sore. Is it better to keep moving or to rest it today?

I am supposed to be going in for arthroscopic surgery on my knee to fix a torn MCL and some torn cartilage. My knee swelled up and my doctor wants me to go back into the ER to get it checked. The problem is, my boyfriend is the one who has to take me and has to be at work in the morning. We had to also go this weekend, and he got a doctor's note from work, which cleared him for 2 days, but he was off Sunday. Does the note then count for Monday and Tuesday, or Sunday and Monday? And if I go back, can they fire him if he gets another doctor's note excusing him? Please help...

I have frequent knee pain,mainly in my right knee only. I am only 25 and my knee cracks so loud when I bend it or go up the stairs. I was quite active back in High School (dance and sports) but never had a knee injury. I am not nearly as active now (I go to the gym a few times a week...basic cardio and lifting) and have not had anything happen that would cause injury or an incident to my knee. The pain is like a bad aching and hurts pretty bad. I currently don't have insurance as I just finished college and my "real job" with benefits doesn't start until the middle of September. Lately it has been really bad so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on the cause or treatments! Thanks:)

Not often, but once in a while, usually during a physical activity, I get this weird, painful pain in my head like something at the back of it just popped, and it stays there for a few seconds. An example of this happening would be when I would raise my arm, like when it happend when I was swimming. What could this be?
