I have a back molar that has an exposed nerve and the pain is through the roof.I went to the ER today and was given Ibuprofen. I would be ok with this if it only worked. I am frustrated because the asumption is made that every one is a pain pill addict so unless you have a severed limb, they don't give anything to handle pain.

Is there anything that can handle this pain ?

yesterday i had extremely bad heart burn hafter eating 3 meat balls. it was so bad that i felt like i migh through up. i have never had heart burn that bad before. now it is hard to swallow anything. the pain is not in my throat but more like in my chest down to my stomach. i have not been able to get any food down due to the pain. can heart burn cause that much damage after one episode to cause this much pain?? i have taken anti acids, tum, malox, nothing soothes it. if anyone else has had this happen to them what did you do? or could this possibly be something other then a bad after effect of heart burn??

I am 14 years old and I have really bad pain in my right shoulder. It has been going on and off for about a year. My doctors think it is just referred pain from my gallbladder but, I don't think it would hurt this bad and this much. I use biofreeze twice a day and keep heat on it when I can. I am going to see an orthopedic next week. I was just wondering if anyone else had any ideas of what to do or what it might be!
Thanks!!

I have been having pain in my right rib area for about a month now and cannot figure out what it is or how to make it go away. I have had a few other symptoms such as stomach pains, nausea, diarhea, and lack of appetite but the main issue is the pain. Most of the pain is flank pain on my right side but sometimes is felt up in shoulder and chest all on right side. Have been to the dr. a couple times but blood, urine, and ct scan all showed nothing... Please help.

How does your body know pain? I know the nerves and all that fun stuff, But my question is, How do your nerves know when there is pain? say you have a hang nail... when you use nail clippers and get it off, it hurts... How does your body know that?

I tried saline but that stuff didn't work at all? Basically i have no idea what it is, the only time i get relief is when i take a hot shower/then walk into the room and for a few seconds i can breathe normally.

I've never done drugs or anything like that, i dont drink, etc etc so thats not it. I just dont understand whats up. I was on accutane for a year, and before it i never had this problem? But talking to doctors they said that wouldnt do it?

Anyways if i grab my upper lip and kinda make it expand then my nose opens up and it doesn't feel sticky/etc for a few seconds, then it just goes back to normal. anyhow it's really a horrible feeling so any advice would help tons

thanks

I am in alot of pain. The accident happened three months ago. I was thrown from a motorcycle and hit tree at about 30 miles hour. I hit the tree with my arm and broke it in two places and dislocated my shoulder. I had surgery on my arm and sometimes it hurts too, especially at work. I work as an instructor at a university. So I have trouble when I write on the overhead and during some of the labs. I have tried physical therapy... but I hate it. I don't mind going, but with my busy life I feel like I am missing out with time with my kids. Is there anything I can take for the pain. Most of the pain is in my shoulder, but sometimes my arm hurts too.

On my husbands MRI it said Large Herniated Disk( L4). All the doctor has done for him is give him pain killers. There has to be something eles he can do . The doctor also said he is to young for back surgery so all he has done is write him pain pills every month there after. There has to be something eles besides having to take pills for the rest of his life. I really hate feeling so helpless. When he is in pain its chronic. It really hurts me because I cant take the pain away. I would give him my back in a second. Thanks to anyone who can give some helping words.
