It is so sad seeing him move because he starts crying because he's only 2 years old. Is there anything i could do to help him? I've taken him to the vet and all that , but i want to know if there is anything i can do to make sure he won't die. Please help me! I feel so sad, i've never felt this way before and i'm still in shock from what happened today. Please help my kitty..

I used to play basketball and then I stopped and my knee was killing me. So, I went to my primary care doctor and he said that it was just the muscle on top of my knee wasn't as strong anymore... so i went to my cousin who is a personal trainer and we built the muscle so everything was strong. the pain never went away and i have never injured my knee (that i can think of). this was like back in september i think. any ideas on what might be wrong with me knee?
Thanks!

My band for school did a fundraiser and we sold over 1600 cases of citric fruit so from 6:30 until almost 9 I was on a truck unloading about 20 pound cases and now i can't lift my arms without them shaking and hurting and I can't grip and thing witout them shacking and my hands all cut up.... any way, is there anything I can do to regain control of my muscles, or should I just let them rest even though I will be lifting them again later to deliver?

I have this friend and first to start off he's fourteen and reaally really skinny. i mean, ive seen skinny people but u can literally see his knee caps kinda sticking out. hes been like this since i met him a couple years ago. i doubt he's got any eating disabilities, ive seen him eat and hes really not the superficial type. well, ive always been sorta concerned about his weight but i figured it was just cause he excercesed a lot or something, cause he does like to run and stuff, but this year i noticed that he lost even MORE weight. its kinda scary cause hes growing too so it seems like hes got too little meat on his sticks. he also has these weird marks on the back of his knee caps, hes had em as far back as i remembered, but when i asked he said he didnt wanna talk about it. im really worried, and i might just be paranoid but if any of u have any idea if theres something wrong with him, please do let me know. thanks :)

I work up to a muscle spasm in my left calf today. It lasted for about 2 minutes, it's been a few hours now. The bad pain is gone, but I am totally walking with a limp right now, it hurts if I stand up straight.

What causes muscle spasms?

hello about a few weeks ago I went into the e.r. because my finger had been slammed in a car door. I was originally givein vicodin but the swelling had not gone down and It didnt really manage my pain that well. so I went back in and got the worst doctor in the world in my opinion and let the nurse tell me that vicodin should work fine and made it seem like I had a drug problem. he then wrote me a prescription for vistaril and said it works really well for pain and to take it with some form of anti-inflamitory. I did not fill the prescription and filed a greavence with the hospital. but I was wondering if anyone else had heard of it being prescribed for pain.

Well... I'm 13 and have absolutely no clue at all why I did it. I cut a C into my arm... not deep at all but I just felt so badly like seeing blood. I already regret it and have stopped... seriously I kicked my own butt for doing this. But, I don't want to buy any medications or anyting. Does Neosporen help remove cut scars? I'm about to shower too. Anything I can do in the shower to help my cuts?
I just don't want to have to hide my arms.

I've been to the dr and had a MRI on my right knee (which showed nothing) and now lower spine. The problem started with my foot going numb, just the top about 4 inches above my ankle down through my toes. One toe has gone crooked and limp, I cannot walk normal on that foot b/c it slaps down when I apply weight to my heal. I had a shot of b12 which helped with the mobility factor, but the numbness has gotten worse and gone north up the outer side of my leg. I wasn't having pain in my lower back until about 2-3 weeks ago and since has become very painful just above my butt. No meds seem to help the pain (Tylenol 3, Advil, aspirin, regular Tylenol) and the heating pad offers very little relief. I haven't seen the doctor yet about my MRI results and can't get a call back for some reason. Is it possible that I am lacking b12 and a supplement will solve the issue or does it sound more like a bulging disc? Someone who's been through this, your opinion is appreciated.

Hi. I have a question about my right leg and ankle, and why my socks won't stay in place anymore.

A few months ago, I noticed that my right leg has become slightly red in color and a little larger than my left leg. Also, my right ankle swells up after it's been out of sock and shoe for a few hours. It's swollen when I put the sock and shoe on it, and then it goes back to normal once the sock and shoe are off. My left leg and ankle stays normal at all times.

I am on the heavy side, but I have to wonder...if this problem with my right ankle and leg is all about my weight, then why is my left ankle and leg not affected? I did have an accident almost three years ago when I fell in the street while crossing and I sprained my right ankle pretty good. I had to wear a brace for about a week and I was pretty sore.

Is the swelling of my right leg and ankle all about my extra weight, or could the swelling also have to do with my accident from a few years ago? Maybe a little of both?

I got a really bad cut by my ankle and it has been bleeding since about 5 o'clock. I've tryed everything and I really don't know what to do anymore. It's not a big cut but it's really deep and it hurts.
