The ER doctors said the hand doctor would probably repair the finger with a steel pin. Called hand doctor for an appointment. Earliest he can see me is two weeks. Is it okay to let a broken finger, that probably will need a steel pin, go for 14 days?

I have always experienced strong headaches, (im 21) because of my migraine...
! week ago a 4x4 wood stick hit me on my head, (you can imagine how hard it was) I had tobe home for 2 days without doing major moves because i had a big bump!! my head was in pain, i went to the doctor and he gave me pills to make the swallen go down and to make my dizzyness go away...
now i got a col, and my head is on pain really bad again, would it be because of the cold?? or my head is going to keep on hurting that bad because of the "accident"??
It hurts and im still feeling so dizzy!!! or you think my headache and dizzyness wil go away with the cold i just got?

Last week, i was running on hardwood floors with socks. I fell like 5 feet into the air, and my arm flew into the wall. It hurt really badly at the time, then it wasn't as bad afterwards. Since yesterday, the pain came back. Its not broken, i can still move it. When I twist my arm, i have shooting pains up to my palms sometimes. The pain is my elbow down. Above my elbow is fine. I don't know if I tore a ligament, or if it could be tendonitis, as I play the saxophone and piano.

The pain is in my left ribcage, i cant sit straight up myself someone has to pull me up for it to not hurt. It has also worked its way to my back. On a scale of 1 to 10 the pain is a 10, it feels like someone is jamming a screwdriver into my rib. Im thinking a broken rib or pulled muscle.

I was in a car accident a few months back and ever since then I have had problem with my finger, X-rays shows no breaks of any kind in my finger and my finger feels really strange, at first my finger hurt something awlful, but then over time the pain as well as the numbness and tingling all went away, and now I am stuck with a finger that still gets stuck one position, it is hard for me to straighten out my finger as of yet...can anyone tell me if this is the sign of a broken finger or could it be something else?

On my shin, about 2-3 inches under my knee i have a very sensitive spot. I am in taekwondo and often collide shins while sparring. It is lasting way too long to be a bruise and there are no discolorations or bumps. It causes a lot of pain when touched. Could this be a pinched nerve, or what is it?

For the past week my back has been hurting and I figured I had herniated a disc. I finally went to the hospital Wednesday morning and ended up having to have emergency surgery. I had one disc herniated and another piece of a disc floating around in my spine. Unfortunatley, it was too late for my foot. I can't move it at all. The doctor recommends physical therapy so that I might eventually be able to walk without a brace. Anyone know any good exercises? I just want to start right away and I can't go to PT for a couple of weeks. Thanks!

having excruciating pain in my big toe and third toe on my left foot.
especially aggravated when standing. on the bottem of my toes there is swelling and when i press down it feels like there is a lot of fluid where the swelling is. i have no idea what caused this, and was wondering if anyone has ever experienced this? there is also a tingling sensation, almost numbness as if my foot(toes) were asleep. i looked up symptoms for bunion and its not accurate for what im feeling. ive also had corns in the past and its nothing of the sort... thanks so much for your help!

I am on the track team for my high school and have ran track before. I am a 100m sprinter. I have recently been getting shin splints and i have tried a lot of things. My shoes are fine, my running form is fine, i stretch, warm up, and such. I ice it after practices every day and massage it. Is there anything else that can help heal it, or heal it faster?
