OK, so I was skateboarding today and I feel and caught put my wrist down to catch myself. It hurt A LOT and i was just lying there for 5 minutes. I got up and it hurt still but i kept skating. It is still hurting like hell. i took some excedrin pm but you know, all the pain isn't gone. Is it broken of sprained. Its not swollen, but some of the veins on my wrist are a little bit more up than usual. I can move my fingers and my wrist. my mom says it can still be broken though. Is it? Thanks

take an educated guess(or watever you wanna call it) on how tall I'll be when I'm 16. My mother is 5'0,my father is 6'0, and my grandmother is 5'7.

I just started running track a few weeks ago and the past weeks my ankles have been bothering me a little, i took a break for a day from running, and they seemed to get worse, the past two days that i was running it was terrible, i had to stop, and i iced them. It feels almost as if i twisted them, but I couldn't have since both of them are hurting, that's too coincidental. Anyone know what's going on?

I tore a ligament near my hip during a fall sport. Though it is vastly better it is still uncomfortable and still inflicts some pain. Is therapy necessary? should I consult my doctor?

Running can be a person's greatest joy... or biggest pain. The tremendous impact running places on the joints, muscles and bones requires your body to be in proper alignment. If you run regularly, you may find that you sometimes develop a dull ache on the inside lower portion of your shin. It may get worse the more you run, walk or stand. Chances are you have a case of shin splints. If you are one of the multitudes of recreational runners who has suffered from this very common overuse injury -- you know firsthand how painful the condition is and how frustrating recovery can be. Many runners consider shin splints to be one of the most painful and persistent conditions they can develop. Although the pain associated with it is due to chronic contraction of the muscle at the front of the leg (tibialis anterior), the cause of shin splints is usually related to improper biomechanics of the foot and knee.

I forcefully bent my finger back on my hand yesterday. It HURTS so bad! I can move my fingers, but my ring finger feels week, and the pain at the big knuckle of my hand is killing me. My hand is a little swolen, but it's not black and blue or anything. It's so swolen that you can't see that knuckle. And it kills me when I try to make a fist.

I just assumed I didn't break it because I've heard that ol' wive's tale that if you break a bone in your hand, you'll know it because you can't wiggle your fingers.

Well, we were on a cruise ship on thanksgiving break and one late night my friend went swimming in the indoor pool. We had fun until I struck my foot out to push against the water when I hit the lader... I hurt terribly .. it hurt so much that I got out of the water. When I go out my foot was full of blood.. so I checked and I hit a nail. It might have been rust since it was in the water but I don't know... I held a napkin on the spot for 10 min. until the blood started to stop and I could slowly make my way down to my cabin.. stopping every 4 feet to check that it is not bleeding to much... I then just put a bandade over it. When I woke up the next morning I couldn't walk on it... and I couldn't walk on it for the next 3 days... Now I have a scab were it went in. For the last 2 months I have experienced pains right by the ankle were the nail struck... What could be wrong with my foot? What should I do now? Thx...

What is it? or what could it be? What would they do?

I had my ears cleaned by a doctor, and he used WAY too much pressure. I passed out, and it turns out he partially ruptured my eardrum. I have lost about 50% of my hearing in that ear. Can I sue him for his neglegence? Thanks for any advice.

Would my eye reject the lens after a while or should I go to the optician to see if it's still in there somewhere? I can't feel or see it, but I don't think it came out either!!

I've always heard that if you get your eights hours of sleep you will wake up refreshed, energized, and ready to go. But that's not the case with me. What's wrong? What should I do? Any advice?

I know I did this during exercise, but I am concerned about the severity. The muscle in my arm, between my upper arm and shoulder, is in pain. It hurts to lift it above my head and other stretching hurts, too. I thought it may be because I was exercising a new muscle, but after a week, after the rest of my body is fine, this one area hurts a lot. Any advice?

Today i was playing basketball and some kid threw the ball to hard and it hit me in the nose. i went to the doctors after it began to get very swollen, red, and turn black and blue and he said he didnt know. He said there was nothing I could do even if it was fractured or broken. He thought it was probably fractured. What should i do to ease the pain and keep the swelling down, and help my nose heal quicker? thank you

I was in a head on collisin 3 years ago and cut my scalp on the windshield. I did not puncture the skull but I get horrible pains in my head and have lost portions of my memory. I don't have insurance to get it checked and would like to know if there could be something semi-seriously wrong?
