It's really warm, tender & red, maybe infected. Anyone know of any ointments I can put on it? How can I soothe the pain?

My lower back is killing me! Bend a certain way, getting in and out of the car, lifting my legs (putting on pants, etc.), stabbing pain right at the bottom of my back. It doesn't feel muscular, but almost like it could use a good crack. Does anyone with a back problem know if this COULD be a slipped or herniated disk, artheritis, or what??? If it could be something the dr. will just say I have to live with, then so be it. I just wonder if anyone has these symptoms and what I might be facing ahead. If it's worse tomorrow, I will have to go to urgent care and get it checked.

I recently got hit by a baseball in my right cheek. A HUGE lump grew on my face, protruding about an inch. The lump went away quickly and the next day I had some brusing and swelling on my face. It's been about a week, the discoloration is going away (my face is sort of yellow), the swelling has gone down and my face looks normal. HOWEVER, where that lump grew originally, I can still feel the lump. It moves a bit, but doesn't really hurt. It's not really noticeable, but when I touch it, there is a bump. I don't think I fractured any bone and I don't know if I should go to the doctor. What causes this and since most of the bruising and swelling has gone away, should I let that bump heal? I'm a 22 yr-old female.

I separated my shoulder (not dislocated) on Aug. 4th 2006. Though ive seen some progress in my healing, im still injuried. I am a shot put thrower, and injurying my throwing arm obvouisly put a solid halt on my career. Has anyone with this injury experianced such a delay in healing? Its been so long and i feel that i couldnt of had a slight separation, grade 1 or 2, if ive still been experiance painful motions this long. Its been about 7 months.

I HAVE THIS FEAR OF BLOOD TESTS! ANYTIME MY PARENTS MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE THE DOCTOR, I ALWAYS GET HER TO CANCELL IT BECAUSE OF MY FEAR. I DO THIS BECAUSE AT EVERY VISIT I ALWAYS HAVE TO TAKE BLOOD TESTS. I'M AFRAID OF BLOOD TESTS BECAUSE NEEDLES HURT. I COULD NEVER LOOK AWAY BECAUSE I'M VERY NERVOUS. ONE TIME I RAN OUT THE EXAM ROOM BECAUSE I SAW A NEEDLE! WHEN THE NURSE FINALLY FOUND ME, SHE TOOK ME BACK TO THE ROOM. IN THE ROOM, THERE WERE 3 NURSES READY TO RESTRAIN ME, 1 HAD TO HOLD ME DOWN, THE OTHER HOLD MY HEAD TO THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AD THE THIRD HAD TO HOLD MY ARM DOWN SO THE NURSE DRAWING BLOOD COULD GET THE TEST DONE. NOW I STILL TRY TO AVOID GOING TO DOCTORS. I'M VERY DESPARATE, WHAT SHOULD I DO??

Doctor said I have nerve damage in my foot in ankle. (Tarsal Tunel) He said the best thing to do is to have my foot placed in a fiberglass or plaster cast from my toes to my knee for 8 weeks. I have an appointment next wensday to have it done. I really dont want to be in another cast.

I have a cold and have been blowing my nose too hard. This caused my ear drum to rupture. I'm supposed to go out for a friend's birthday, probably to a club. Will the loud music hurt or further damage my ear?

Last year at a dance competition i hurt my foot but then it healed later on. So I began to slowly ease back into dancing. For a week I had no pain at all and so Tuesday I thought that since I wasn't hurting that I could start back full force dancing but then as I was dancing I came down on my foot and it popped. I thought that I would be able to keep going but I had to stop because it hurt SO bad. I thought I had broken it because I couldn't even put pressure on it at all. I still have trouble walking on it and I've been off dancing for a REALLY long time and I don't want to have to stop. I've been seeing a physical therapist and I've been icing my foot. I also had a cortisone shot between my third and fourth metatarsals and it still hurts. It hurts on the top of my foot right below my toes and along my arch. My therapist said that it could still be hurting because the cortisone hasn't dispersed yet but I'm not sure. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it!
