Pain & Pain Management - March 2007

I slept in the wrong position for the last couple of nights and my lower back is hurting. What is a good over the counter medicine for this?

I took some extra strength tylenol but I've seen things advertised especially for back pain and I can't remember what it was. Thanks!

It starts at my left shoulder with a tingling sensation then spreads threw my whole back and then progresses to feeling like little needles are getting thrown at me.

I have a sore in the back of my throat a tiny bit to the left of my uvula. I first noticed a small bump after I ate breakfast this morning, and throughout the day it's progressively gotten larger and more bothersome. The bump itself is sore like a canker. It's so close to my uvula that it's been making me want to gag all day!

Is this a canker sore? What can I use to make it so I don't feel like gagging all the time? How can I get rid of it?

The heels on my feet suddenly began to hurt. It's to the point where I have to lean a bit forward on the ball of my feet just so I can take some of the pressure off my heels. It feels like a dull achy pain.

I'm not a runner nor do I do any other sports (shame on me) I consider myself somewhat healthy and currently in good health.

I have been suffering from severe pain on the left side of my tongue for the last 6 months. I have seen the dentist 5 times (he suggested a crown which I got with no reduction in tongue pain) I have seen the ENT who said nothing was wrong, I have seen an oral surgeon twice who now wants me to get a CT scan. Does anyone have any pain relief suggestions?

My ears feel like they are stopped up, and I don't know if it is from taking Methodone. I have chronic pain that is why the Doc gave it to me. Also, my left knee (inside knee cap) has been hurtin with anything I do. This just started Sat. nite. I can't bend it too much or go up/down steps without sever pain. What could be the cause of this. I think I have some type of arthritis* because of all this pain. I am seeing a Long Term Pain Mangement Doctor for my right hip and had an injection this month (nerve blocker) in my lower back..grrr ..I am 45 and feel like I am falling to pieces.
Only serious answers please. I don't need any smart remarks from anyone. This is serious to me. Thank you, and GOD bless.

Seems everyone a expert these days. Vicodins-= addiction or abuse since everyone knows someone who could not handle it. For the responsible patients how do you deal with discirmination? Tell me about your worst experience

that he is taking hydrocodone? I told him they are in the same class of drugs but did not know if a drug test can tell the difference or if he will just test positive for opiates and n explain it away by showing the hydrocodone RX.

I have a mild case of it. Not sure what's causing it yet. My doctor said to try physical therapy before getting an MRI done.

Obviously they are not time release so I know that it wont be stronger but maybe in helping it absorb. Crush them up and take a drink, will this maximise its effects (pain numbing not to get a high) or will it not make a difference since your body can only absorb so quickly.

its only in my right hand, but my knuckles constantly feel as if i want or need to click them and they feel strained... theres also pain in them which goes sometimes and really hurts at other times...

For the past two days I have been experiencing pain on the right side of my neck. It hurts when I turn my neck or move my head up or down. I tried taking some pain relievers and even putting a hot pack on the area to soothe it but none of this worked.

What helps when you're having a painful day? I'm not on any medicine right now. Tyleonal? Advil? Anything like that?
