Pain & Pain Management - May 2007

Ok - so I took a 22 hour flight and my legs got kinda crampy.. then today I kept feeling that maybe I was short of breath.. then maybe a pain in my neck near the carotid.. then checked web md and completely freaked. Should I get checked out before I fly home, or just admit that I'm a hypochondriac?

It started out with stomach ulcer like symptoms, but now I'm just getting more and more annoyed. There's a concentrated pain under my left ribs and sometimes it lasts up to 20 minutes. It comes at random or when i'm stressed out and sometimes the pain surges to my back or across my chest so it makes breathing difficult for a few minutes. I also get random, pulsating pains in random places like my leg (thigh) arm or side, usually on the left side of my body. Sometimes i'm nauseous and tired as well. My stomach has also eben very intolerable lately. It burns and causes osme pain usually directly after or a few hours after eating.

I'm 16 (female) and i've had these problems for about 9 months. I have been living in a smoking household for about 8 years but i do not drink or smoke myself.

Any diagnosis or suggestions are well appreciated.

I suffer from frequent headaches, but I can't take over the counter pain relievers because they interfere with my anti-inflammatory medication.

I ask this because whenever I work at my job in which I stand the whole time, the pain seems to go away almost completely when I'm caffeinated. So is there a link between drinking coffee and relieving pain such as the bottom of my feet?

4 years ago I received a buckle brake to my wrist when I fell of my scooter. Then last year I sprained my wrist playing volleyball. when I sprained my wrist I wore only an ace bandage and it felt better.

Now lately when I twist the wrist to the side,move it up and down. or push down with it or on it hurts. I don't really know what I should do. do you think that I should be wearing a wrist brace or something. I tried icing it 2 nights ago but it didn't really help

My wrist also hurts me when I wright with it and sometimes it will crack. when I turn my wrist around it sometimes pops. whenever I play Volleyball in the fall My wrist always becomes sprained.even if I don't go to the doctor what are some home things that I could do for it. Please tell me what you think I should do for it, what I should have for it, and what you think could be wrong. I am also14 and yesterday I was holding a piece of paper and my wrist started to ache and I had to switch the hand that I was holding it with

My friend seems to think that pain killers, lets say powerful prescription ones, only work for things like "broken bones". She has boils that hurt when she moves in certain positions and I'm trying to tell her that pain pills would help.

should I request my doc to do? He doesn't believe in EMG/NCV's.

I have peripheral neuropathy, muscle spasms, etc and it's getting worse.

My blood work flip flops with the RF, and thyroid.

I haven't had any testing (other than blood work) in a year. The last mri's showed arthritis in my spine....

I have a really big canker sore on the inside of my bottom lip, it started small about 2 weeks ago and has gotten bigger this past week. It's painful to talk, eat, drink, and kiss my hubby :( I've tried salt water and Orajel to numb the pain, but it's not going away!!!! Does anyone know of any home remedies I could try, or if they have experienced this - should I go to the doctor/dentist??

I can't do standard back strengthening exercises because of increased pain. Also have fibromyalgia so my stamina strength and flexibility are very limited. I am overweight and want to reduce and tone (to help myself) but am so limited in what I can do. I know diet alone is not enough, but even a short walk results in a lot of pain. Any suggestions?

Please don't post the drug info. I've read the pharmacy inserts for both and they both sound exactly the same to me. That's why I'm asking.
