For months now I have been experiencing these severe headaches. The headache always occurs on the same side right above my eye and by the temple. The headache usually lasts several hours and then goes away. Afterwards for a few days the spot that I had the headache is very tender and sore to even touch. Does anyone else suffer from something like this and if so what do you do to help it?

I felt like Cramps a little and last night I kept getting sharp pains on my sides and in my stomach. I have kaiser and they said to lay down take something for pain and put a heating pad on my back. it didnt work to well. and whenI got my pain the worst last night is when I was fixing the babys bed and I got a sharp pain in my back and I couldnt move my left leg and when I did I got pain shooting down my leg and in my stomach and back and my tummy got hard..

two years ago i sprained my right foot. one of my ponies stepped on my foot and this continued to happen a couple times after this. I haven't been stepped on if awhile; but the pain in my foot is chronic now for the last couple months, i wake up and put pressure on my foot and it's so stiff that i can hardly bend it. When i sprained my foot 2 years ago they took X-Rays and found nothing but a sprain, so is it possible that i may have broken something and didn't know it and now it has healed wrong which is causing the pain?

I'm just getting back into working out after a long break - hate to even say but its been about a 2 year break which included a rough pregnancy and now my daughter is 16 months old - so I can't say its her fault anymore because I've had more than enough time to get the weight off. I have 20lbs i MUST lose so I can stop being disgusted w/ my self. 15 still from the pregnancy & 5 from before -

So to my point. I used to be a runner. I HATE to exercise but running is the one thing that I do enjoy if I must do something. Biking has always killed my knees so I quit that long ago. Now I've started working out again - Day one I did 1/2 hr on the cybex (s/p) - similar to an eliptical I guess and by bedtime my knees were killing me. Yesterday I ran/walked on the treadmill for a 1/2 hr & did weights and felt the same. Then by morning its better.

Why are they doing that??? ANything I can do for relief? Heat seems to help so yesterday I sat in the sauna after I worked out.

I have several injuries. A couple of herinated discs in the lower back and one in my neck and Scoliosis in the upper back where my lungs are. Right now, I have tried several types of meds but it does not seem to do much. The ones that help increase my pain twice as much as I start with so I had to get off them. All I'm asking is for a recommend brand or name of over-the-counter meds I can take.

I've been taking 10mg of oxycodone every 4-6 hours for the past 3 months (I had a series of 2 major surgeries in Feb). My doctor says it's ok to stop taking it now - but how do I do it without experiencing withdrawal symptoms? I tried going cold turkey a few days ago and it was terrible!! I was anxious, stressed out, had cold sweats, rapid heart beat and I couldn't sleep at all.

So what should I do? I think I should cut back slowly a bit each day - but how quickly can I do it wouthout having terrible withdrawal symptoms? My goal is to be copletely off the medication in about 6 days (because I'm soo... tired of being constipated all the time). Any tips, suggestions or ideas for how to taper it off is much appreciated.

I’m also taking Núcleo to help replace the myelin loss causing Polyneuropathy in my lower limbs. I’m accustomed to the chronic pain so an increase in that would be acceptable

I've been disabled due to 3 failed spine surgeries and am now unable to work. My pain management doctor has retired and I am finding most doctors are refusing to take chronic pain patients. I live on a "neighbor island" (non-Oahu) and have heard it's next to impossible to find ANY let alone a NEW one. Why?

i was curious, i have been having nonstop pain in my right wrist the last 3 weeks and over time it has gradually stretched a couple inches above my elbow. the pain is off and on, sometimes it hurts to the point where its unbearable aches and cramping and sometimes its just a soft pain that i can ignore. i broke my wrist when i was in first grade, 10 years ago and i figure maybe that has to do with it. i have had pain like this before but nothing that lasted this long. normally just a day or two but now that it hasnt stopped im gettin concerned. any suggestions of what may be wrong?

I have had ear pains for over 6 months. I've hadtwo doctors check my ear but both have said it's not infected. But now these shooting/stabbing pains are so bad I can't move my face or my mouth when it happens. It hurts so bad I cry but I can't because it'll send more pain. I don't know what to do. If it's not in infection then why does my ear hurt so much? I hate being told I'm fine when there is obviously something wrong. I'm sure normal people don't have stabbing pains on the inside of their ear every day.

I notice it's most painful when I get out of the shower, even when I haven't washed my hair or try to not let water near it, it hurts the worst.

I don't know what to do, if the doctors don't see anything, then what am I suposed to do?
