Pain & Pain Management - May 2007

I think I just broke my hand...or something. I can move it in all directions but I have this dull pain in the back of my hand. It feels much like the pain I got when I broke my hand on a previous occasion. Whats the best way to tell if its really broken?

I hurt it by falling down and landing on my fist...ahem yes...

I'm only 12 years old, so I don't think it's low BP. But if I stand up to quickly, or if I stay in a hot room too long, I get horrible headaches. At school, there really is nothing you can do about it. I never know when I'll get these headaches; they're very unpredictable. But I know that they hurt very badly. I also get dizzy. And it certainly doesn't help in gym class. I do get 9-10 hours of sleep, I swim, and I eat a good diet, so I don't what it is. Please help!
Thanks!!!

I looked up growing pains and it said that they were pains of the limbs, usually the legs, that happen during the evening or even at night to 3-5 and 8-12 year olds.

I am twelve years old. I have had growing pains in my foot over the past few years, and wear a size women's eleven. The other night I woke up at 3 in the morning with severe pain in my lower ribs. I found that streching helped, like the site said would help growing pains. It took about twenty minutes before I could get back to sleep.

Is this a rare case of growing pains, or something else?

Hi I've had back pain especially in my left shoulder, I took some photos and realized my left shoulder is higher than my right, Why is this, besides scoliosis, because I think it may be muscle related.

My four yr old is complaining of a ear ache in his right ear. I have told the doctor this two times and on both occasions no ear infection. He says it hurt on the inside. What else could be wrong?

This might sound really random and strange but i've just accidently swallowed a fish bone while eating my dinner. It didn't hurt, and just went straight down but as i'm pregnant i'm worried this might harm the baby in some way now! Help?

My knees have been bothering me off and on for years. I'm 29 and physically active (no running though) and otherwise healthy. My knees ache from time to time, not always together, usually just one then the other.

Sometimes it's so bad I can't sleep. I take ibuprofen, use aspercreme, etc. but it only lasts a little while.

I went to the doctor once and they told me the undersides of my kneecaps were rough, and that with exercise it would improve, but it hasn't.

So . . .any ideas?

I have had acute nerve pain in my neck for 5 months. I have been to a chiropractor, 2 neurologists, massage therapy, and pain management (epidural shots). Nothing has worked. Today I had my first session of cupping and accupuncture. I feel pretty good, but sore. i just want to hear some stories from other people to see if they had good results and if this works. Thanks!

my mom has fought 3 diff. cancers for 13 years and is now cancer free; but she still experiences chronic pain from a prev. neck surgery (during her 1st and 2nd cancer treatment). i think the wound is still not properly healed inside coz when she is exposed to hot humid weather, her "wound" become red and swollen and she constantly feels stabbing pain-she says its as if her nerves are getting stretched.
her condition got a little better when the wound healed from the outside but until now she still experiences pain and it gets worse in hot and humid weather. she has to stay in an air conditioned room most of the day coz when she sweats her neck wound would sting and get swollen all over again.
how can i help my mom deal with the pain? she takes pain killers but she doesn't want to be dependent of them. are there other alternatives out there? i really hope you can help.
