My cuticle bled for about an hour afterwards. My nail bed is slightly purple, but the angry redness is gradually spreading on the skin around the nail. I'm having no trouble bending my finger, although it's very painful to touch. Should I see a doctor about this to make sure no further damage was done and that it heals properly, or will it heal properly on it's own?

A while ago, a girl at my school fainted. But it just so happened to be right before a big event at school. She has participated in something similar before, and she has joked around about how she fainted by doing it to herself. I've read about "the choking game" and I've seen people pass out by hyperventilating and holding their breath. Whatever she did, she did it in the public eye, and she did it herself. What could she have done?? This is terribly unhealthy, and I want to make sure she never does it again! I've heard of knee locking for a long time-how would that do anything?

Most of mine was in high school. Last year though, my brother punched me in the face and fractured my nose. To me it was the worst fight I had been in but in the sceme of things probably not a big deal. 10 points for the best story.

I have had a feeling in my eye as if something was in it. For 3 days
now. NIght before last I was able to "see" something in the eye, but was unable to get it out. I used an eye cup and flushed it out
several times. I used eye drops, and it didn't help. Today my
eyes started hurting and it feels as if they are sore? I need releif
and I don't know what to do. Would I go to an eye dr, or would
my regular physician be able to help?

thanks!

I just saw the doctor today and he told me that i have a stress fracture in my lower back and that, hopefully, it's gonna heal within the next 4 months. I was wondering if I were to switch from my normal backpack to a shoulder bag, would that relieve some pressure from my lower back because stress fractures in the lower back aren't guaranteed to heal and i want to do as much as possible to make sure it does heal.

I was in dance class and on this one particular day i decided to wear my leggigngs. I thought i would be able to spilts like i'm normally able to without the leggings having any affect on me. i went down and all of a sudden i heard this cracking like a cracking you would hear while cracking your knuckles or neck it was so weird. I've done this type of stuff before for cheer but don't understand what went wrong. What do you guys think and how long do you think it will take me to heal.

I was doing a front flip and landed in the tuck position (a ball) my left knee went pop (same pop sound if i squat real fast, like cracking knuclkes) but a bit louder.

What hurts:

When i try to bend my knee back, its a sharp pain coming from the middle, back of the knee. If I swing my leg in a forward motion, the outside of the knee hurts.

Any suggestions? I will be getting an MRI soon...

What happens if you are exposed to two pack paint (isocynate) in an enclosed space? How can you prove that your body has been exposed to it. What symptoms do you get and how long do the effects last. Are there any industrial injuries regarding this paint that have gone to court?

Hi i hope you can give me some advice; I have developed a tingly feeling in my left hand pinky finger over the past year or so and this tingling and numbness is now spreading to the next finger; i have full use of my fingers and they dont really 'hurt' but its starting to worry me; i fell down the stairs about 7 years ago (im 29 now) and dislocated my left elbow so do you think it could be a result of this?

A few months ago I came down on my knee and the doctor said all i had done is damaged the cartlidge in my knee.
And that it would be fine.
However its a few months down the line and i still can't run fully on it..it just dosent feel right and eventually begins to hurt.

A friend told me the doctor should have informed me to go for P.therepy on it..but its a few months down the line now.

Is this fixable? Anyone had the same problem and are better now?

thanks!

I've been walking for about 2-1/2 months now. So far I've brought down my 1-mile walk from 22min-16min. I tried slowly increasing my speed some days and other days I just went for a longer time at a slower speed. The problem is my knee. I popped it 5-6 years ago and it's never been the same. Just yesterday I was walking(not exercising) and it popped in and out of place. I mean it's one of those pops where you hear it and it hurt for a little while but the pain has mostly gone away. I think it may have done this because of my exercising, but I'm not sure. While I've been exercising, I start to limp and my knee doesn't hurt but I just can't seem to not limp on it. This has only happened since I injured it. I've tried wearing a knee brace but it will still pop in that. I think it may be my tennis shoes too, because I haven't gotten any walking shoes yet. I guess I want to know what I should do to be able to walk easier on that knee like some stretches or anything else i can try. thanks
