I have what i consider to be muscle pain in both of my arms. The only problem is that i have not done anything to strain my muscles to hurt in such a way. This has been an ongoing problem for me. The pain is very sharp and burning, and gets worse when i move my arms. Sometimes it feels as though there is something lodged in my arm and everytime i move it stabs deeper into my flesh. Has anyone ever experienced pains of this kind? Let me also tell you that i am a 21 year old male with normal blood pressure and cholestrol. No heart disease or any serious problems. Basically i wake up in the morning and i am in pain. Slowly my pain starts to get better throughout the day. Please tell me what this possibly could be?

I have had a headache for going on six months. i've seen every type of dr. you can imagine...my gp, an optometrist, a neuro opthomalogist, a pathologist. i've been on tons of medication including topamax, verapomil (sp) and now depakote. nothing stops this headache. sometimes it is tolerable (3 or 4 on a scale of 1-10) and then other days it keeps me totally debilitated. during the course of trying to figure out what is causing this, i've had ct scans and mri's (all normal). i recently had an mra/mrv but don't know the results yet. also while digging for answers, it was discovered that i have diabetes (type 2) and sleep apnea (am using the cpap, but it is not helping the headache...in fact, it seems to aggravate it). the pain in my head ranges from sharp, shooting pain up the back of my head to feeling like i am wearing a cap and the headache is over my whole head. visual distrubances are minimal. eyes have not changed and no nausea (to indicate migraine). can anyone help?

Just eaten my lunch (a few ham salad rolls) and the rolls were a little on the tough side. Now my jaw feels like it's dislodged and it is really uncomfortable. What can I do to ease it?

Of course he will be visiting the doctor today, but my husband has been having shooting pains in his lower back and down his leg all weekend. It got bad last night. I rubbed icy hot on it and he took Ibuprofen but got no relief. He was up all night. I think it is his sciatic nerve but not sure.

Restless Leg Syndrome is something people have and don't realize what it is. Your legs move, feel crawly, can't control them
and keep you awake at night. Besides the medications for this
problem are there any other suggestions? Have your legs caused
problems after surgery? This is creating quite a problem . Any
suggestions would help. Do you excercise for it, walk, standup,
or what? This is such an uncomfortable syndrome and there
must be some answers. Your suggestions may help.

I have been using it as prescribed (40 to 60 milligrams a day). I am no longer in severe pain and would like to stop taking it. Does anyone recommend cold turkey or weaning? I am definitely dependent.

It hurts so bad I have been taking 4 Ibuoprofen 2-3 times a day. I would go to the doctor but I have no insurance until March first. I had to pay for the ER visit when I first hurt it.I need ideas for what I can do until then. The pain starts t my lower back and goes down the side of my hip to the front of my leg to right below my knee cap. Please any help is welcome I will try anything. I have tried PT exercises but they make it worse and if I turn a certain way I am in intense pain for atleast a hour or more. I can't sleep and I don't know how much longer I can go, March is looking too far away since it is getting worse. Thank you for any input

Hi
I am a runner who has damaged my left knee in the gym of all places, by overdoing it on the treadmill and stepper.
I have a very tender point just below my left kneecap which has recurred despite a steroid injection by my consultant.
I was given exercises to stregthen the quadracep muscle especially that part which, if you look down at your LEFT knee, is the bulging muscle above and to the right of the knee joint.
Where can I find out what exercises would help?
I was told my left foot is flat due to a fallen arch and this is causing the knee cap to move out of alignment.
Are there any shoe inserts to help?
Sorry for the message length
Steve
