Pain & Pain Management - December 2007

So today at work I had about a 15-20 minute period of time where I was getting these horrible stabby pains in my stomach, like the upper left part of it and it felt like it was coming from the inside out. The only way I can describe it was it felt like hydrochloric acid burning a hole through my stomach. Then just now I get the same weird acid-y stabby pain in my neck shooting up to the back of my ear. What gives?

Sometimes, not very often, I get a sharp pain in my lower back, and when I lean up against something, the pain instantly moves to my stomach, and stays there until I take pressure off of my back, and it returns to its original location. Has anyone else ever experienced this? And does anyone know what causes this?

I have been diagnosed with RSD after 2 knee surgeries this year. Today I am going to my first appointment at a pain care center. What can I expect? Will they mess with my knee or just ask questions?

I am a Lupus patient. Every now & then I get a sharp burning pain in one of my toes. This is usually something I can tolerate, & then it disappears within a week or two. For the past couple weeks I have had intense excrutiating pain on the ball of my right foot, & in my right toes as well as the left ones. It's a burning pain coming from within. The areas are red, appear swollen, & the discomfort I feel is relieved by squeezing my foot. if I stay off my feet for about 30 minutes, the pain goes away but as soon as I move around again I'm in tears because it hurts so much. What is this? This has been going on too long & I am irritated that I am suddenly so immobile.

I woke up this morning with a killer headache. No other symptoms. I had a tiny hangover the day before, but afaik hangovers only last a day. This morning i took 1g of acetaminophen with 130mg of caffeine (branded as excedrin tension headache). I don't think i have any migraines. I'm a 19 year old male. It's been about 2-3 hours since I took the medication.

Any ideas?

I have a pain above my right ear, the pain spreads into my right eye and check. The pain in my eye is more of a pressure type pain. I can feel the pain all around the eye ball. My check is like a numb feeling. The pain stops if I put my hand on my head or lay my head down on that side. Pain seems to be worse by the end of day. I can take a hot hot bath with the steam relazing the pain and pressure. I also sleep on a heating pad. Morning time pain is almost gone, but soon returns the more I am up. The doctor treated me for an inflammed temple over a month ago. It did sooth the pain, but it has not completely gone away.

my husband has been addicted to painkillers for over a year. he doesnt need them at all, it was just something he got into! which i cant tell you how much that enrages me to think about, but thats neither here nor there. he is so dependent upon them now and he says that they are what make him not depressed. but i cant stand the side effects: drowsy, irrational, impulsive, mood swings ranging from high to low and he has ocd so it makes his ticks worse. he never was like this till he got on them. now the only thing is that is good is that they somewhat control his seizures. he has temproral lobe epilepsey. i find myself constatley annoyed with him, with the actions he takes, the money he is spending and i just dont know what to do at all anymore.-mommy b

It doesn't look bruised or anything. It itches alot. But everytime I itch it, it hurts. It hurts to touch anything with it. I hit my foot on the side of the door (not like stubbing my toe just tapped it)and it hurt really bad. What is this?

Well my muscles seem fine so i didn't bruise or pull the pectoral. But I have this pain when i breathe (DEEP) inside my chest and it's not like other peoples. I feel very small cracks (kinda like cracking knuckles on a very very small scale) when i breathe deep and my heart beats. It's been going on for 5 days already and it doesn't hurt as much. Lower left (back) abdomen also makes sends when i go to touch my toes... weird but doesn't hurt or anything. Pee is kind of cloudy (maybe it was the coffee?) Mostly this is just annoying and I can do everything normally. Before i had a bruised or inflamed sternum and was kind of like now but more centered. Pretty sure no broken bones and it's not a heart problem (my left arm is fine...). Any idea? This just confuses and annoys me rather than worries me.
SORRY for the long paragraph detail but I figured it's better to be thorough to distinguish this from other arbitrary symptoms/injuries.

Had this for over 10 years. I am 37 years old.

My lower back is sensitive to the touch. It feels swollen all the time. i tried chiropractor and theropy and nothing helps.

I tried several medications from doctors and nothing helps. I tried acupunctor and that didnt help.

I want to be normal again. My back specialist (sports injury doctor) didnt help. Is there any other type of doctor i could see that could pinpoint what i have?

I've recently gotten back into playing the guitar. I'm not that great, still consider myself as a beginner. However, my finger tips hurt a ton when I play. I know I'm supposed to eventually get over the stage and develop callouses. but the problem is that I think my strings are way too tight. I have to exert a lot of pressure especially on the first fret.

I'm not sure what the problem can be, other than that I'm out of practice. Did I change my strings the worng way?

By the way, I'm using the lightest bronze strings and since these are one of the softest, I really feel like there is something wrong.
