Injuries - September 2006

Today i went to the doc and he told me i have strained some muscle in my back and gave me anti--inflammotory tablets to take three time a day. If i still have pain by Thursday he wants me to go back to see him.
I took a tablet a few hours ago and most pain has gone and i have to take another soon. How will i know if i have a bad back still and it just feels good becasue of the painkillers/anti tablets are working? Should i try to go without and see what it feels like before thursday or just stay on them?

Thanks

Hey guys, today I was sitting at my desk when a spider came on my chest. I kinda freaked out and accidently tilted my head forward to the point where my chin touches my chest, it was fast though. And I felt kinda a pull near the back of my neck. My back kinda hurts now kinda below where my neck connects to my shoulders. Im walking fine though, but it kinda hurts. What's going on? Don't tell me to visit a doctor because I would have done that and woulnd't be asking here.

Two days ago I was hit in the head by a flag (the metal pole part). I felt dizzy, but I didn't pass out. I continued to have a bad headache for the rest of the day, and it continued yesterday and today. About an hour after being hit I felt naucious, but I didn't throw up. Also, yesterday and Saturday night I felt wierd- I couldn't pay atention and felt slightly confused. I never lost my memory and I feel fine today, except for the headache. Also, the place that was hit is still sore. I think I have a mild concussion. What do you think? What should I do about it?

A while ago I was rollerblading down a hill. I kind of tripped and fell down on my left knee and skinned it bad. From then on I can't bend my knee or get up on my knee without it hurting really bad. What could the problem be? Did I just screw it up?

Sometimes when I am walking, or when I shift my weight the wrong way, my knee gives out and it is very painful. If it is a bad dislocation I get pain, swelling and loss of mobility. It hurts and is embarrassing since I usually fall flat on my butt. What surgery, treatment, etc is available. I have already wwent through physical therapy and that helped, but it still happens.

My co-worker (who is standing right here) has pain along the backside of her right leg, that seems to be more intense in the back of her knee and hamstring area. It's definitely not muscular...She has a "deadening" feeling with throbbing when she walks, sleeps, sits or stands (basically all the time). There is also a slight "swelling" feeling around her ankle. I'm thinking this is circulatory, but is there anyone out there who has more of an educated theory? Serious answers please....thanks

Everynight when I am sleeping, I talk in my sleep and grind my teeth. Sometimes I wake up with a few injuries from this teeth gringing.

My son is 5 yrs old and broke his elbow on Thursday. He had surgery on Friday morning to put pins in the bones. The doctor said he shouldn't return to school until this Friday, which means I have to stay home with him. I am missing 5 days of work. Does this sound right? I want to go back to work but I am afraid to go against dr.'s advise.

i lifted a heavy box and i've had a pain in the sides of my lower back, the butt area specifically for about 6 weeks, i've went for chiro treatment and he recommended stretches, but the pain always comes back it seems as though i pulled a muscle on both sides, and its very stiff and sensitive sometimes, and they say its a muscle strain, any idea on how long this condition can last or what is the best treatment, some people recommended physiotherapy but i'm not sure if it can make things worse or not? Any suggestions for treatment, or how long this will last, i'm only 27 and never have been hurt like this ever,thanks so much for your help
