I am a dancer and this is my 11th year of dance (i've been dancing since i was three). All of a sudden whenever I'm on pointe and I push down really hard my foot cramps up and it really hurts!!! Does anyone know why? If so do you know a way to fix it besides coming down from pointe and stretching it out? Thanks so much for your answers!!!

My knee started affecting me during the fall through soccer. It's not my patella, but below it (lower than my kneecap in that rather soft spot). When it's not flexed, it hurts to push on (especially after working out for awhile). I've been icing and taking ibuprofen to alleviate the soreness, but I can't depend on that stuff. Anyone heard of a chopat (?) or something that will help with what I have?

I have been getting leg cramps (charlie horses) for the past 4-5 days in a row. Does this mean anything? Just dehydration or could it be anything worse?? It's in the same spot-right leg calf.

Thanks. (Only serious answers please, thanks)

I throw shotput and discus and lift a lot of weights so I don't know if that has something to do with it.

I know Asprin thins the blood, but what about Ibprofin and Acetaminophen. Id like to know how they work and is one better for a certain pain, like a headache vs. a sprain.

i have been getting a sharp pain in my heart for about a month now. i am only 16. i wondered what this was. its really sharp and sometimes i have to stop. its not like i dnt get enough exercise and i am not fat. i am quite slim. its not heart burn or anyhing like that its just a very sharp pain right in my heart. this whole thing sounds so stupid but it really is concerning me a bit. i know, i know, people will say ''go to the doctor instead of asking on here'' but i just want to ask on here before i go to the doctor because i don't want to go to the doctor over just a pain in my heart. are there any doctors/gp's on here that might recognise this problem. thankyou.

Only recently have i found myself with mild to severe neck pain. I expect the pain is as a result of sleeping awkwardly. Movement of the neck is restricted so that when i look to the left, i feel a searing pain stemming from the area behind my left shoulder. Im not sure if its something that will improve with rest or deteriorate without intervention?

I'm on my feet several hours a day for work & before the night is over, they are burning & swelling. I have to put foot cream on them on breaks to make it through the night. By the time I get home I can barely walk. I've it for almost a year & been to the doc twice. Done all the exercises as well. Any other suggestions?

I am at school during my free time right now and I am on the computer and the nurse can't give you pain medicine unless your parents give them to her.

I was 18 and was rear ended and got whiplash. Recently I selpt with my neck in the wrong alignment and woke up in pain, It just struck me today that the pain I am in reminds me of whiplash. All I did was sleep in the wrong position. I have been keeping up my exercises for my back and for fittness so I felt pretty good before this happend but now the pain is when I move my neck in any position. I have tried gently strching it and it alomost feels better until I release the strech and that is when it hurts. It hurt to swallow because the neck is so sore.

Should I just try to imobilize the neck or should I tyr to excerise it??

My kids and I suffer from occassional but severe migraines. So many people around me tell us we should lay off the acetaminophen because of health risks. Do you have an alternative that works for you? Especially non-prescription suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

As described in my post from last week, (http://sg.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070127095803AALztkj ) the problem seems to be lingering.

Now, the numbness seems to be worse on the bottom of my shoulder blade. It really seems to be in the skin, not the muscle. Also, the spot that is numb seems to be turning red, almost like a bruise. Could this be some sort of infection under the skin?
