Pain & Pain Management - September 2006

About a year ago I had an ear infection in each ear. I took at the medication prescribed to me.Then after that my ears were all stuffed up but I didn't do much about it. I've blamed it on allergies or sinus' but this whole year my ears have been STUFFED up! Its awful. And its beginning to make me natious and totally uncomfortable ALL the time. I need to unstuff then, does anyone know of anything to do besides the obvious that hasn't worked so far. This is an EXTREME case.

I'm not sure what the area would be considered. It's in my crotch area on the inside of my leg, where the leg meets my body.

After walking for some time or playing basketball I'll often get a pain in that area. It almost feels like something is out of place and I need to pop it or something. However it's not all the time and if I sit for an hour or so it seems to go away.

sunday morning my wife admitted to cheating on me and sleeping with the guy.(that hurted me deeply) could something affect my emotions so much that i could have chest pains. monday my chest was hurting with a sharp pain when i get up or sitdown or take deep breaths. well i can still feel the pain a lil bit only when i inhale large amounts of air, and the pain has is not as strong as it was at 1st allmost as if it is going away.
i play basketball but i never got an injury like this one. also the pain does not stop me from doing anything physical but its still there very light pain now. should i be worried? should i go to the doctor.

Yesterday I was in a docters office for some test and this man that was helping was saying that he had a headace. He said that
he used this peppermint oil with one rub of it across the forehead one rub on each side of the head and one smear of it on the back of his head. Has anyone ever used it and where do you get it and
how much does it cost?

I have pain in each cheek of my butt now, and it is really making my life miserable. I just finished a 10 day dose of prednisone, and coming off it now. Had none at all today. My back hurts so bad, and I am tired and crabby.
I don't have the time to get MRI's, CT scans, and all that stuff. Can someone tell me what to do to alleviate the pain right now, this very moment. I am so fed up with it. I have too much going on in my life to deal with this fearsome back pain...thanks...

Help...my stomach really hurts right now. After first I thought it was because I was hungry (in the same place) because I didn't have a chance to eat for awhile today, but I just did- to no relief. It feels pretty awful, but other than that I feel normal.

I have been getting steroid shot and medications.The shots worked for a while and then I started blowing up from the steroids.Now I just use the methadone 40mg 3 timew a day.I'm in a clinic now that is like the 3rd world.I don't go to the pain clinic anymore because all they can do is keep me comfotable with pills.I need a doctor that can handle all of my conditions.I have diabetes,high blood pressure,high cholesterol,arthiritis,severe chronic pain,nerve damage,phantom limb pain when my leg got ripped off in a motorcycle accident,and PTSD. I'm 50 yrs. old and I don't think I can live much longer with this pain.I take about 10 minutes to get out of bed in the morning.I live in constant pain and take enough medicine to consider it a meal.I hate to ask doctors for more painmeds or differant ones.They look at you like a drug addiict.I wish that the US had a program that if you can prove that your quality of life just isn't worth living.I get up in the morning and watch tv,take pills.

I'm only 21 but my knee crackles when I bend it, it only hurts if I twist it or I'm going using stairs. My bio professor says it's probably "crepitus." Does anyone know the best therapy for it?

I have gone to two different doctors, orthopedic sugeons, and they shoot my elbow up with cortizone and give me pain meds and tell me to stop the activity that is causing it. I can't its my job. I had carpel tunel sugury in one hand, the other isn't that bad because thats the hand i write with. But i had tendonitis in that elbow. They pretend its not painful but it HURTS! It feels like a lump in there and i cannot flex or extend my arm, i take 2 darvoset and 1 800 ib. every 4 hours. I am a little worried about what is that doing to me. Should i find another othorpedic surgeon or keep messing with this one? the last one said there is nothing more i can do for you, good luck. What the hell! Is this one going to do the same? it seems the same path as the last one took. Any advice would be helpful.

For the past few years, I've been noticing my knees make a crunching, cracking sound when I bend them, a lot after I go biking. There's no pain but sometimes just a pressure. It reminds me of how it feels when I need to crack my knuckles and sounds like it too. What gives?

I have been prescribed Darvocet and Tramadol. Neither are REAL opiates, but I will tell all of you that Tramadol, on an empty stomach, DOES give you an opiate high. I am not sure if Darvocet is used recreationally, though? I've heard you can get a similar feeling to Vicodin, is this true?

I either pinched a nerve or pulled a muscle riding horses. I've been in and out of the hospital, and it takes forever to get in to see the doctor. It's virtually impossible. Well, it's getting better, bet only very slowly. Can anyone suggest something to do to get rid of the pain? I tried drinking, but six margaritas didn't do it, and my husband had to help me stumble up the stairs. Help!

would you take babies that already had a mother, or give the mother $2 million so that she could keep the baby and make a better life for herself? Or would you adopt a baby that had no parents at all? I wish Angelina would not have taken that baby girl from her mother, I have yet to see that kid smile, she always looks sad and miserable. Just my opinion.

I have an ingrown toenail/fungus in my middle toe, i have already seen a doctor, and have an appt. with a foot doctor to remove the nail next week...I have been putting neosporin on it, but about two hours ago, I started to get pain in the toe, and it has become unbearable. I can't stand on the foot or apply any pressure to it with out causing more pain. I tried placing the foot in warm water and that just caused my toe to burn as hell. My toe is now swollen. Is there any remedies I can do at home? It is nighttime right now, so doctors are not available. Please, any ideas to take away this pain please! HELP!!
