I have gotton this pain that came very suddenly.
It is just below my left rib cage and sometimes to the right side of it. The pain has been there for about a day now. It comes and goes but sometimes it is sharp and painful that I gasp. Its not appendicitis because I have had mine out.
Any Ideas??

OK in my chest is a pain. It really hurts and it makes me kind of hard to breathe. I can breathe ok but it kind of is hard but just a bit. And my parents are asleep.

If it's not classified as a narcotic but is as strong as one is that because it's man made?
What I mean to say is metaphorically speaking If Tramadol were a street drug it would be considered a designer drug correct?

very embarrassing, but i have bump under my tailbone that hurts when i put pressure on it. i asked this a couple of times already and alot of people mentioned it being a cyst. although the pain matches that of a cyst, i see no visible traces of any type of weird skin qualities in that area. i just wanna know what the hell is wrong with me and what to do (w/o going to the doc if at ALL possible) because i cant stand this pain.

talk about embarrassing but woke up this morning with a very painful bump that feels hard like a second bone under my tailbone (above the anus). its under my skin but it really hurts when i sit on it or put any sort of pressure on it. i've read some stuff on the internet about it but i cant really find similar problems to mine.

i havent told anyone because i dont know if its a really big deal or not yet (or if it will go away on its own), but my mom thinks im paranoid about my health most of the time which is why i didnt tell her. please give me any advice at all, i want to avoid a doc if i can but ill do what i have to. thanks

My doctor just told me that I have the early stages of Fibromialgia. I just hurt in random places all the time. All my labs came back fine. I also have many of the depression and fatigue symtoms. So I think the diagnosis is fitting. However, my mom told me that she doesn't think that FB is a real disorder. Why would she say that? I'm feeling real pain!

I have had horrible ongoing abdominal pain for about a month now. I have already had my appendix removed. I have seen the doctor multiple times and they say nothing really wrong and send me home with more pain meds.

Please help. Let me know what you think I could have

heres the deal. Every time I have an ache or pain, i think its serious, and its not. Example: i have a headache, i think its a brain tumor. Its just a headache. Does this need counseling, or is it just something i need to learn to "shrug off"?

I have heel spurs in my feet and they cause me tremendous pain and my feet swell sometimes. I can't be on them very long w/o them hurting. I went to my foot doctor a while back. He prescribed anti-inflammatory pills and casted my feet for ortodics to put in my shoes to wear. It doesn't seem to make a difference.

I have Fibromyalgia and my back hurts daily especially in the mid back where my bra stap lies. If I could avoid it all together I would but being a 38C cup size, it is not an option while in public. I am constantly aware of pain but after wearing bras for a few hours, I am in misery. Can any of you reccomend the best choices including brands, prices and locations of where to find them. Breast reduction is not currently an option financially and I don't know if it would help with the mid back pain anyways as other areas of my body are affected as well.

yesterday i noticed a very noticeable pain in my tail bone, it just seemed to appear one day and it only seems to get worse. it REALLY hurts when i press it down and sometimes when i sit down. i have mild scoliosis but ive had that for as long as i can remember, but this pain started just the other day. i dont see how that can be related. i didnt fall on my *** or anything so it wasnt an injury. please give me any help that you can, i want to try to avoid seeing another doctor (plus my mom thinks i worry too much about my health and physical conditions so i really have to prove to her that somethings wrong with me cuz usually nothing is). it might be just bad posture but please give me any ways to get rid of this PLEASE!

My friend knows she has a pinched nerve and herniated discs in her neck, and has the exact same headache symptoms I do. She is unaware of at-home help. I happen to know my chiropractor-boss once adjusted my neck and the pain was instantly gone.
So, does anyone know of a way to resolve this? At the very least, even if I'm wrong about my diagnosis, you will be helping her!
Thank you.

Hi my mother was recently prescribed norco for headaches and back pain.she takes about 1 tablet a day. Is this going to damage her liver? I know that he gave this to her because it does not have a lot of acetomophine in it…..if taking just 1 a day will it severly damage her liver?
Thanks!

I've just stared running crosscountry and i think i may have shin splints. It could be that I ran with worn shoes or that i slept wrong and i ran on my leg. The pain is very little now that i;ve been icing it. i have practice everyday and i think i'm going to rest for tommorow and talk to the coach? what should i do if i do have them?

i recently had a porcelain crown placed on my back tooth. since i had it done i have had extreme sensitivity on it. i went back to the dentist several times (this has been over 3 months ongoing) and finally today he realized that some of my roots were exposed. he put a desensitizing liquid on it and told me we would have to do this every 2 weeks until it healed. do exposed roots really heal themselves? if so how does it work. the funny thing is i never had problems with this tooth before he put the cap on. now i cant even chew on that side of my mouth! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i've been doing pushups lately, in sets of 15-20 ea and I've been starting to get pain right below my shoulder next to my armpit on both my right and left and i think they muscle knots. I usually don't stretch, so i think that's why i get them but i'm not sure.

Could anybody tell me about how long it will take for them to go away, and also if It would be ok to still do things such as pull\chin ups and pushups after stretching while i have them or if that would aggrivate it?

Thanks.
