Ok, I bought a pair of shoes the other day (Nike Flight), and I have done some intense running in the past few days. All of a sudden my heels are hurting, because my new shoes are rubbing up against them. My old shoes were Nike Shox (High Tops). How do I make the rubbing stop?

Wow. Well, today I suppose I almost met my maker. My friend and I were walking down a road right outside my neighborhood that stays fairly busy, we had just gone down to speedway to get some slushes and were heading to a bank on that road where they let us skateboard after hours. About 60 feet from the bank I heard someone yell something and when I turned around I saw a bunch of little pebbles coming at me. Of course I ducked and most of them missed. I guess this wasnt enough because as soon as we started talking about it they came back again. This time, I was on the bike and they singled me out, and threw 4, 3-5 inch rocks and 3 of them hit me, one in the arm (messed up the tendants, I have about a 10 inch welt/bruise), one in the shoulder, (also messing up the tendants) and one in the chest. The fourth one I so gracefully dodged, it was heading straight for my forehead/eye region, I felt it hit my hair and scrape the top of my head as it flew by.) And of course they were going 50-55

my hamstring right above my knee on the backside hurtss soooo bad i dont no what to do about it it has hurt for like 2 or 3 days and im in track im pretty sure that has something to do with it and my coaches told me to ice it which i did but it just seems to feel worse and now its starting to go down into my calf muscle, i can't even walk up stairs without it being painful. I tore my thigh muscle in the same leg but i dont really think that would have anything to do with it. I hope i gave you enough information to tell me what i have wrong with me :)

I cut my foot, directly below my big toe. It bleed for 2 or 3 minutes and was deep enough to see the tissue below. It heeled over but now I can poke the top half of my big toe with a needle and it doesn't even hurt as it should. I feel it a little but not to the point where it hurts just tingles. The 1 inch scar i have still hurts nearly a year later

I just got my eyebrow pierced, and there is now a bruise (yes, it is definately a bruise. it is not an impure metal reaction because the bruise is bruise colored. as in purply red.) near it above my left eye. Why is it there? What can i do to make it go away (if anything...)?

I let the bar fall on my upper chest on inclined bench press and since I had no spotter it laid on my upper chest for a few seconds before someone came to help me. I don't think I injured myself. How would I know if I injured myself and what could have happened.

PS: Please don't lecture me about using a spotter, I always use them but the weigths were so light I could do 15 reps with them, I just screwed up since I'm not used to inclined down bench press.

We are really scared...trying to play X-box but she is running around looking for scissors to cut out this thing coming out of her no-no spot. I'm no doctor, but I don't think she should cut it.

I was swimming lengths before work in may 2004 when the pool attendants erected a waterpolo goal post while i was in the pool. I was up to length 28. The lane was completely free of any obstacles until i got to length 28. Since then it truly has been a really difficult time. I have had many medical appointments and have an important appointment tomorrow. I am hoping for and acknowledgement of the error that was made in order to me to move on. I would like to go overseas. thankyou...

Ok, today my ear started hurting REALLY bad. If feels all stuffed up. I am pretty sure it is an ear infection. My mom went and found these drops the doctor prescribed like 2 summers ago for my swimmers ear. She wanted to put them in my ear, but i don't really know if it is okay because we are learning in health class that you shouldn't do that. Do you think that it is ok to put the drops in???

Hi, Any medical staff out there that can help please. Around 5 or 6 weeks ago I noticed my middle finger on my right hand was starting to swell slightly so I removed the ring my mum bought me as i didnt want to end up cutting it off.

About two weeks ago I noticed that my finger had swollen more causing it to bend out of shape, it started to bend into its natural claw position and in the past 5 days or so it has worsened and tonight it has really swollen my whole hand feels as if its swelling, the finger is being twisted towards my thumb.

Since the past 2 weeks I have also suffered pain and it has got worse, pain is radiating all over hand, then up to wrist and now it feels as if its travelled up to my elbow. I visited my doctors but the doctor who saw me was Romanian and to be honest I felt that she was unsure, she gave me a course of antibiotics, but when i was at hospital receiving treatment for a problem i have, i was given anti-inflamitary tabs, still gettin worse. help

like they do in books, or will you faint from the pain?
And besides any cosmetic imperfections, would you still be able to breathe properly?
Thanks

I'm looking for personal experience; I've read plenty on the subject already so I know the textbook answer.

I went to the gym yesterday for the first time in awhile. While working out my foot mildly hurt, but it wasn't anything. Several hours later it hurt to even take a step. After more time it hurt even sitting around. I went to urgent care. PA diagnosed a sprain, gave me an ace wrap, ibuprofen and sent me home.

After looking online I think it may be a "march fracture" I'm really concerned because I can't afford to be laid up. What syptoms did you have when you fractured your metatarsal?

"In my hamstring" I feel a popping like sensation when doing deep stretches. Someone suggested that this could be due to the tearing of tightly woven scar tissue. I do have very tight hamstrings, and my GP has confirmed this. The popping can come at any time, but again mostly with deep stretches. I don't have any of the sympotms for pulled hamstrings, but I'm not ruling it out. Any insights would be great.

About 2 and a bit years ago, I was playing football and received a challenge from 'over the top' right onto the top of my foot. It hurt a bit at first on the top of my foot and my big toe, and there was some swelling, and it was very painful to walk on. I sought out medical advice, and they just said it was tissue injury. However, now, I have a clicking in my big toe (a region where a stud from the challenge hit) either between my metatarsal and first cunieform or phalange and metatarsal.
What is causing the clicking?

If you have an arm amputated and it was not from a disease, it was just from it being detatched from an accident, are you allowed to bring it home and eat it? They throw it away anyways I believe, so why not just let me have it to eat so I can say I ate my own arm?

I had my ACL reconstructed by Patellar Tendon in July of 2006. I retore it in January of 2007, and will have to have it reconstructed in May after graduation. I was supposed to run Cross Country for Baylor, but now it looks like I won't be able to. When do you think I'll be able to start training as hard as a college athlete does? Will it be in time for Track season of 2008?
