I would like to know if anyone has any good websites or information for me. My paper is on Physical therapy and Sports Rehab in general. I am with 4 other people on this paper, but they are doing it on injuries in sports. I thought I would do mine on this topic. So if anyone can tell me any good information on PT and Sports Rehab that would be great.

Hi.
I have had lower back pain now for 5 yrs & I'm sick of it. The doctor can't find anything wrong, the chriopracter (SP) keeps popping it at the same spot, but says everything is fine. The x-rays show nothing. I do exercises recommended by the chrio, wear heating pads (which helps some), & take advil. I've had an upper & lower GI done (nothing wrong), it is not gas, constipation, or cramps. I feel better when I wear a corset, which makes me think it might be bad posture, but I'm not sure how to fix that (yes I have a large chest, but not so large that according to doc to harm me). I am 10 lbs over weight for my height, & eat healthy. The pain starts when I get up for the day & only sitting hunched in a chair do I feel it lessen. If I try sit-ups or curls I'm unable to move. No injuries, no accidents.I'm still able to work & function, but I would like to fix this. Does anyone have any serious answers or suggestions?

My right hand from the tip of my thumb down to my wrist hurts really bad and is so stiff. This is the only part of the hand that hurts. To make it feel better is to crack the bones. But now when Im cracking the bones thats starting to hurt really bad. I have been to one docter he said stop cracking it. YAH thats the only way to make it feel better. The other docter said not much I can do since you dont have health ins. ANY one have a clue of what this could be it hurts bad and have any ideas to make it feel not so tense.


thank you

If I stand up for any prolonged amount of time (maybe 30 minutes), my lower back begins to ache and becomes weak. Are there any suggestions as to best alleviate the pain and to prevent from happening again? I want to use a trip to the Chiropractor as a last resort.

I went to the E.R. on Friday, with horrible pain in my jaw. The doctor felt my jaw (did nothing else), ordered some x-rays, didn't see anything, and told me that I had a sprain, to follow up with my regular doctor, and let me go.

The pain was really bad, so I went to another doctor in the same hospital. After examining me, he told me that I had TMJ syndrome. He gave me some muscle relaxers, and told me that I needed to see a dentist.

My question is, since I am paying all of this out of my pocket, is there something I can do about paying for the first visit, since it wasn't even the right diagnosis? Does it mean that I would have to go to court?

Last winter I started having issues with my right knee, growing steadily worse over time. Some days it was completely debilitating, leaving me stranded on the couch. I did see a DR, who did an X-ray, that showed nothing. He mentioned scheduling an MRI and an ultrasound, then I never heard from him again, and my life got busier so I left it alone.
Over the summer, I had almost no issues, only a mild ache once in a while.
Cold weathers back, so is the pain. I visited another DR, who did nothing more than refer me to physio, with no diagsnosis. I'm on an 8 week waiting list for physio. I do NOT trust this DR's reaction any more than the idiot I dealt with last year. I want to visit another, but have some info with me if possible.
The pain is intense, usually throbbing around the kneecap. I cannot bend my knee without intense pain, and if I do, when I move to straighten it there is an audible, loud crack that others can hear.

Any experience with issues like this appreciated. :)
