I suffer from Pudendal nerve damage. It is from an accident I had several years ago. The pain is debilitating, leaving me unable to function 75% of the time. I've used all the opates which work for a while, then they must be increased. I'm a young man and can only take so much.
I've had some relief with Neurontin at very high doses. It eases the pain some but the side effects are to many to list.

Any help is appreciated.

There's a spot about 3 inches above my hip and about 4 inches to the left of my belly button that started hurting a few hours ago. The pain comes and goes and doesn't usually get too bad, but what's up with this?

It isn't too painful, it just feels weird. Like, not normal.

On Monday I went to my acrobat class(like floor gymnastics)and we were doing handstand-summersalts(you go into a handstand then roll down into a summersalt). I wasn't feeling well and my teacher kinda made me do them and every time I did them I landed VERY hardly on my lower back. We did around 20 or 30 of them. My back and butt hurt really badly. How can I help reduce the pain?

Ever since fourth grade, when i tried to do a back bend my back has been hurting on and off for long periods at a time. Whenever i lay down in bed it hurt unless i slept in a certain position, and when i get up in the morning it hurts too. Its not really stopping me from daily functions, because it stops a little after I wake up, but still, nobody wants to feel pain and neither do I. Its been hurting me a lot lately. Does anyone have any solutions or advice to help me? Please and thank you.

My doctor recently told me that I should begin taking Tylenol with Codeine. He said that Tylenol #1 would be fine for me, and that here in Ontario (Canada) Tylenol #1 is legal to buy over the counter. Unfortunetely, I forgot to ask him what store to buy it at, and I don't want to sound stupid by calling him.

I was thinking I could get it at Walmart, but I'm not sure. Can anyone offer any assistance?

is it possible for your brain to swell? I have massively painful migrains and can not figure out what is causing them, they hurt so bad it just feels like my brain is swelling. I've been to a neurologist she put on all different kinds of meds which just made it worse if anything. I've tried getting a new pillow, I've tried changing my eating habits, I've tried breathing exercises but nothing seems to work. Anyone got any other ideas?

Just got done with my last bit of vicodin yesterday after ankle and leg surgery and my Dr. prescribed me tramadol. Just wondering if anyone has taken both or tramadol at least and what your experiences were with it. Did it make you feel the same as vicodin....etc. etc. etc.

Im a 21 year old female, in shape, and sometimes I get really bad chest pains. It hurts worse most times when I breathe in. Why do I get this? Is it serious? It feels like something is stabbing me. Is there anything I can do? Does anyone know what it is?!
