I am prone to tension headaches and it seems like every day I am taking at least one ibuprofen. Just wondering if this will have any long term impact?

I know about popping your ears and chewing gum. They don't work too well with me. How about ear plugs? I'm also looking for more scientific answers, but anything that works for you may help. Thanks!

Since I work a lot and have to stand on my feet for four hours straight, I don't know if this has anything to do with it, since I've been working there for months and my things never acting up before, but I did just recently work a lot for Thanksgiving. Anyway just the end of last week, they've been hurting all the time and I feel random shooting pains around the outer thighs and inner thighs, and they just flat out hurt. The pains wont go away. Should I be worried?

My left wrist hurts... not my right... especially if I bend it forward or press down on it. I'm in college... I don't do any sports or anything.. but I do type a lot and play the clarinet. I have had this same pain before, but it's never been this strong, and it usually went away in a day... but it's been 5 days... Any suggestions?

This paion is almost on the top of my foot, sort of round the front of my ankle.

It's not constant but is very frequent. It is certainly not like a muscular pain or an ache.

I think it might be circulatory related but I've never had this sort of pain before and can't really describe it. It starts above my foot and flows down it quite slowly and painfully. Not to the point I can't walk but it is very uncomfortable.

Any Ideas???

Other than massage, cannot afford that. I get such bad muscle tension that it will wake me up at night and my chest will hurt. I do have a lot of stress but I need to find a way to make my shoulders relax, it is very painful sometimes.

I haven't injured myself in any way but today i noticed tingling in both my pinky toes, and then it went away. That was a couple hours ago. Now my right leg, from the calf down is tingling non stop. It feels like it went to sleep or something. That whole "pins and needles" type feeling. What could be?

If you have osteoarthritis in your spine can it spread to your fingers. Like all of a sudden you wake up with acheing fingers. Can it do it with no warning? Any info Osteoarthritis would be helpful.

My husband is in extreme pain, and his ortho prescribed Prednisone, advised against the Emergency room Saturday because they would give him pain meds that could disguise warning signs for worse injury. The prdnisone is not helping yet.

I got my lip pierced about a month and a half ago, and I know it can take several months to heal, but I'm not sure what's going on is normal.

I've got a bump on the inside of my mouth which hasn't produced puss in weeks, but it is split. It's not incredible painful, but it doesn't seem to be getting better.

My piercer told me about a month ago that I should hold a small cup of "as hot as I can stand" water mixed with the sea salt to it a couple times a day. I do, but does anyone with any experience know of any other suggestions?

Is this an infection, or a keloid scar, or a part of the healing process?

Any advice is appreciated. :-)

I was told by my doctor that some blood tests he ran seemed to indicate that I have arthritis. That was 4 months ago and the pain has gotten so much worse. It started in my hands, hips and elbows. Now my back, neck, feet etc.....hurt terribly bad. It has taken me 4 months to get into a specialist for a consultation. Does anyone know what treatments work best? I have heard of an alternative medicine therapy for the pain that involves eating golden raisins that have been soaked in gin. At this point I will try most anything. I hurt constantly and the pain is really affecting my way of life.I am 43 years old, female, and I feel as though I am 100! Please someone help me with any suggestions.

I have also been told that you can have more than 1 type of arthritis...is that correct?
