Are there any stretches you can do for a pinched shoulder/back nerve? Or possibly a pulled muscle?

I broke my ankle about 7 weeks ago, i had a backslab on for 2 weeks and a hard cast on for 4. I had my cast taken off about a week ago and the doctor at the hospital said that he was happy for me to bear full weight on it and to cycle and swim. He did not take an x ray.

I am bearing around 3/4 of my weight on my foot, but If I try to increase it, it kind of jarrs my foot and a big pain rushes up it. It is still very stiff and i cant move it around like the other one. Also still quite swollen.

My doctor says to just work with the pain, but is it ment to hurt this much? Also im a bit concerned they didnt take an x ray.

Any advice?
Thanks.

Just got back from a week in Cornwall and got a slight problem - On thursday I went surfing, and when I got back to the beach I took off my wet suit and applied a fresh layer of sun cream everywhere........ apart from my feet (mainly as they were covered in sand). Aside from the usual sunburn, they've also swollen and I can feel fluid sloshing about on the top of each foot down towards my toes - anyone else ever had this? I've been applying plenty of moisturiser, ice packs and taking anti inflammatories, but the swelling still doesn't seem to be subsiding.

Has anyone had this before and what have you done about it?

(And yes I'm quite aware that it was stupid of me not to apply suncream to my feet, so please no patronising comments that I should have done so in the first place - that doesn't help - hindsight is a beautiful thing and it's a bit late now to tell me what I should have done 3 days ago!)

I'm really worried what could it be? My right inner ear is a bit swollen but there is no pain. I was reading other people's problems and I think it's because I used a q-tip and it pushed the earwax in.

I've heard this myth before so in doing so when I run from a wasp I am super fast but is this myth true or will just standing there while they are around make you an easy wasp target?

Hi everyone. Well, school's starting in a few days, August 8, to be precise, and I sustained an ankle sprain July 10. Right now, I can walk with and without the brace, but no running. First on 7/17, I went on to the doctor after 7 days of the RICE technique, and got a brace so I could rest and go on crutches. I took the painkiller Ibuprofen. Subsequently, on July 24, after seeing my doctor yet again, he showed me that I could walk, and needed to commence walking around the house to build strength. No more medicine. It's been a while, and I have done exercises, like the one where you extend your toe and then bring it back or make it point toward the ceiling, and the one where you stand on one foot for 30 seconds. I did the towel one for a while, but right now, I'm not sure if I'm supposed to have my ankle brace on while I do the exercises. I usually wear a big sneaker to fit my ankle brace inside, and do the exercises. Also, I have a note that says that I can't run until September.

I dislocated my shoulder on the job and it caused a tear in the rotator cuff. I did not miss any work at all from this injury and workmans comp has paid all medical bills related to this. I have not had corrective surgery for the torn rotator cuff because I can get along just fine without. I have full movement and use of my shoulder, but i do feel some pain while lifting with my arm extended out. I was wondering if workmans comp would pay anything just for being injured in such a way.

What if, say hypothetically, one of those newfangled heat guns focused on a 3 inch surface of your brain long enough to burn it. What would happen to your brain. That part, I mean ;)

The big toe on my left foot is seperating off the nail on the left-hand side of the nail. At first I thought it might be from my shoes but I stopped wearing them and it seams to still be getting worse. The skin where it is seperating is getting hard and a slimy substance is comming out from between the skin and toe as well it is all swollen. Sounds like an infection but I have not done anything that could have gotten my toe infected. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thanks, Brett

A few months ago, while walking up stairs, I stubeed my big toe very hard, and it hurt REALLY BADLY. It was hard to walk because it hurt, and I also suddenly felt sick. I thought that it might be fractured, but there wasn't anything to do about it. A few times, it hurt while running and there was a slight bump under it, but now it's fine. This morning, I stubbed my fourth toe on the leg of a chair, and it hurt so bad I had to sit down. It was, I think, excruciating. I felt like I was going to throw up and/or pass out, so I went downstairs (painfully) and drank some water and sat on the couch. The pain had dulled somewhat, but it still hurt, and I still felt nauseas. I think I might have fractured it, but that could just be me being a hypochondriac. This happened about 5 hours ago and it hardly hurts and I don't feel very sick either.

I don't have any idea why I feel sick after stubbing my toes. Does anyone know?
