Injuries - February 2007

Also, everything that involves explosive jumping movements with my left knee hurts like hell. 6 months......does anyone have any suggestions besides goin to the doctor because i'm planning to get it checked out AGAIN.

i was at a friends house and was sitting on his stairs, and someone came and scared me, resulting in me falling down about 6 steps, hitting my heel on each one. i thought it was a bruise but it was about 2 weeks ago and hasn't gotten any better, could it possibly be a hematoma, a spur or a fracture?

I dislocated my left shoulder 5 days ago. I followed up with my doctor and he recommended PT. My insurance won't cover the PT and I don't have the $150 a week to pay for PT. The PT is supposses to last for 6 weeks. I need some good reccomendations about at home PT to help regain range of motion.

Canadians only please since the US system is very different from ours.

I am waiting for surgery, have been on the list for 3 months now. I'd like to hear your story on how long it took for your surgery after the injury and what you did to help you with the pain after the surgery. Also, how long was it before you were able to move around easily again?

I had surgery last Friday for a lateral meniscus which was completely detached and was reattached. I also have a torn ACL ligament which was not dealt with on this surgery. Prior to the surgery, my knee was very swolen and dislocated to the left. I am currently in a full splint and will probably need that for awhile? Any suggestions or has anyone gone through this? The knee is still unstable and I will probably need future surgery for the ACL ligament via ACL reconstruction.

I have a wide set, bulbous nose and I was wondering if it's true that you can minipulate the cartilage of the nose by pinching it up and in for ten minutes at a time to reduce the width. I wonder if this could cut off blood circulation, damage the cartilage or swell the nose even more. Has anyone gotten results by tring this wacky claim?

I woke up this morning with a sharp pain around my heart. I figured it was my ribs because everytime I laughed, moved quickly or took a deap breath it hurt.

Does this sound like a cracked rib, broken rib, bruised rib or nothing to worry about?

About 3 hours ago, I smashed my middle right hand finger on my car door. Immediately rather than bleed, the bottom of my nail is bluish black. The tip of my finger feels really numb and its throbbing.. I don't think it's broken because I can move it. Bending it and Grasping stuff though is painful. I looked already and found out that the color is probably blood and I read about how to relieve the blood. My question is for advice--from personal experience. What I should do? My finger is my dominant hand. I've tried ice, but i almost have to force that because that just makes it feel worse
