In Sept. 06, My son was hit in the back of the head with a shopping cart, through my own investigation, at the base of his spinal cord. That night he had his first seizure. He was given an MRI in emergency. They told me he had something abnormal meaning something had not finished growing with the rest of his brain. He has had 2 more since. He is being medicated with Kepra.2cc am and 3cc pm. He is sceduled to have another MRI this month, Should I question the doctors, or should I focus more on what happened with the shpping cart being the cause? I am told head trauma can cause seizures. I don't want my son to be medicated for a misdiagnosis. Please help. Jennifer

Four years ago i tore my ACL and had to have it replaced this year, after the entire muscle had deteriorated away (i didn't know it was torn, my doctor left that part out). What I want to know is: if I had caught it four years ago, would it have been possible to simply repair *my* acl instead of having to get a new one?

I have a screw in my ankle and have been told thats why I could not weight-bear. i have a hospital appointment soon and its seven weeks since i broke my ankle.

When i say "broken" i mean it's slighty bent, i think the bone is broken...

It bends to the right, i can never get a proper ***** it just bends to the right, never straight...

How do i fix this?

I broke the bone that connects the pinkey to the wrist. The doctor set it and placed my hand in a plaster cast. I fell and it feels a little weird. I need to know if you could break that bone again while it's in a cast.

I have extremely dry hands and I also have quite a few cuts on my hands because I use a boxcutter at work that nicks me sometimes. This combonation of cuts and dry wounds makes my hands almost numb. Is this normal?

I fell over three days ago. I hit my bottom and my elbow. There is a bruise on my right butt cheek. There has been improvement - the sore muscles are less sore. I can walk regularly, I can sit almost comfortably. I can swivel my hips, and move normally, only general soreness. My stomach muscles were sore but are getting better.

The problem is that when I bend over to touch the floor, there is a radiating pain in my pelvis. I isolated it further while doing some light stretching. If I tuck my right leg behind me, extend my left, and reach to touch my left toes, I'm fine. If I do the opposite, there is that radiating pain again.

I will be going to the doctor, but does anyone have a thought as to what might be going on?

I recently got the top (cartilage) of my ear pierced, and I bumped it hard in my sleep last night, it hurt so bad it woke me up, but I managed to fall back asleep. I woke up this morning, and it was swollen - bad! And it still is. I know it's not infected, it's just bruised and badly swelled. What is the best way to get rid of the swelling? Do I just let it go away on it's own, or do I apply ice, I dunno!! Just help me if you can...Thanks a lot!

That is it was gouged with a sharp splinter, healed but now this person says (10 yrs later) that they have to be careful about opening their eye too fast in the morning or after sleeping, because it will re-tear the tissue.

If you're bleeding, how long does it take for a scab to form (or for the blood to harden)? In case you're wondering where, it's the side of my nose.
