about an hour ago I took my milk out from the microwave and all the froth bubbled over whilst i was holding it and onto my thumb. the milk was boling hot and it took me a while to realise what had happened. my friend put it straight under cold water and we left it there for about 15mins. the whole of my thumb and part of my palm is now bright red and the pain is unbearble. i keep putting it under cold water but as soon as i remove it the pain comes back. im worried it is a really bad burn, as it is a sunday i cant go to doctors and live at uni. what should i do??

About a year and a half ago, I started waking up in the middle of the night with excruciatingly painful cramps in my calves (it could be the right or the left). It didn't seem to have any link with when I took exercise. They lasted for between 1 and 2 minutes, throughout which, I tryed to stay as still as I could through the pain, as contrary to normal cramps, moving/ stretching made it even worse. They finally abated about eight months ago; when a friend slept over.
I thought they were gone, but a couple of weeks ago, I was lying on my bed reading, and had a muscle spasm. I couldn't put weight on my legs for several hours. I have had a couple of scares, when I nearly got another one; but haven't had a full one since then. When I tense my calf muscles slightly, I can feel the muscles all tight and painful. I can't run properly for fear it'll happen again, and dread the next inevitable attack.
(Please note; stretching or pulling on my toes doesn't help!!)

I have been to the doctor, but nothing doing there.

For as long as I can remember, I have had this most terrible ache in just one thigh. The only relief is when something heavy is laid across it!

I do experience it in the day, but it comes on full force at night and keeps me awake.

If there is a solution - great! But I am aware of the dangers of trying to"be doctor" can be dangerous, but I would be interested to know if there are others who suffers this too.

I do reiterate, that it is a deep ache, not a pain.

Please, only serious answers, if there are any.

As we speak my C1 or C2 is pinching a nerve that gives me so much discomfort. It has affected my relationship and my life! I have just received DVD's on Lose the Back Pain and have been doing their stretching exercises for muscle imbalances, yet i still seem to be getting the subluxation so to speak in the neck. I am 45 and dont fancy spending the rest of my life in a Purgatory! I cant understand why this has got worse as i have got older yet my chiro says it has no relationship with age! Has anybody experienced anything similar??

About 6 weeks ago, I fell over at my school disco and 2 weeks later I visited my GP, who said I had soft tissue damage below my left knee and this would get better in time. Six weeks on from the fall, on the left side of my bone, my leg is numb but it only covers a small part of my leg. For the past week, there has been a small hard lump there which has now gone. Any ideas what it is, as I am starting to become worried as to why it's still here. I'm 13 by the way, if it makes any difference.
Thanks in advance...

Friends who have been with me at the time say I go very dark red in the face. Do any medical people out there know what could be the cause? I am 51 years old.

I recently took Diazepam for a flight but it didnt work! I was still really scared altho not as scared as i should have been.I still felt like panicking.I took one an hour before my flight and when i didnt feel any effect i took another half an hour before take off.Half an hour into the flight i had to take another one as it just wasnt working! I feel at 5mg they should have. I had to do that the same way back too. The only time i felt an effect was 2 hours AFTER my last flight,and about 3 hours AFTER i had taken my last tablet when i felt really drunk. Im going on a longer flight in June and im concerned.

I have always occasionaly gottena sharp pain in my side on my left whenever i sit down. It does not happen all the time, and i was just sitting here thinking what if it is my appendix and it needs to come or something. I hear about all these cases where people get them taken out after they start hurting, and I was just wanting a secong opinion, because i don't want to worry about it if I don't need to.Any thoughts??.....
