2. Will my whole body go into the MRI machine?
3. What should I wear to the MRI?

bruised
Posted Sunday February 3 2008, 11:00 pm
i was running downhill and tripped over a wire that was holding these two trees in place. i got a bruise on my shin that swelled up a lot but didn't really turn a color. if i showed it to someone they'd swear they couldn't see it at all until they realized it was swollen.
that was 4 or 5 weeks ago.
the bruise has faded entirely but the area hurts to touch still and even when i lightly brush it against something i get this seering pain, like if someone were to tap it with one finger i would nearly scream it hurts so much.
why hasn't it gone away yet? what should i do about this?

Frostbite
Posted Tuesday January 29 2008, 10:20 pm
Hey,
I live in manitoba, in canada, and its freezing here right now. Last week I was outside without a hat on and my ear got really red, and hurt alittle, but it stopped hurting after about twenty minutes. I was alittle worried about frostbite, so I started wearing my hat. Today it was super cold (-45C, I dont know what that is in F sorry :P) and I think that even though I was wearing my hat, I got frostbite. Last time the soreness went away right away, but its been about nine hours since I went out and it still hurts when I touch it. I know its not severe, but is there anything I should be doing to treat it, or will it heal itself?
Thanks for the help!

Does anyone know what this would be?
Posted Monday January 28 2008, 8:45 pm
I have an appt. on Wednesday to see the orthopedic, but I kind of want to know some stuff before I go. On my right knee, there's a knot on the left side of it (Not underneath it, so that crosses Osgood-Schlatter off the list). It's been there for two years & it's never really bothered till now. When I touch it, it hurts. The same happens when I simply walk, bend down, etc. Two years ago, the knot was so small that you barely even knew it was there. But now, it's gotten a lot bigger & it's started to hurt alot. Does anyone know what this could be?

hi 14/gurl/USA
Ok, I don't know why, but during classes at school my left boob itches. Like crazy. And it always is the left one. Praticaully, I don't know if it's from my period or what, but why does this happen? And of course I can't itch my boob in front of the whole class, and I can't always get a bathroom pass. What should I do?

Ouch!
Posted Friday January 18 2008, 4:09 pm
okay so 15f...i play volleyball, and i have flat feet. So its never really effected me, just that recently like in the arch of my foot, when i get up to walk or lean on the floor on my knees, at random moments like my foot hurts there. It feels like a sharp pain, like my bone is stretching my skin and gonna pop out or something (but not that that servere)Its my right foot. Here is the location: on your right foot, go to the left side of your right foot where the ancle bone is. Go all the way down to where you get to the bottom of your foot. It feels normal afterwards though.

Tiny Scar
Posted Monday January 14 2008, 5:09 pm
So i went to the dermatologist and they put me on acne medication adn told me it would make my skin bad for a few weeks before it got better. So my skin did get alittle bad but now its perfect. The only problem is i have left over scars from where i had acne. They actually arent really scars, they are just discolorations like a dark pinkish/tan. How do i get rid of these?

Sunburn.
Posted Friday January 11 2008, 7:01 am
15/f/aus.
Okay so I got a really bad sunburn on my shoulder today spending an hour to walk to the nearest 7/11 and back. It's been the first day I haven't worn sunscreen all summer, because I didn't think I'd get sunburned.
Anyway, it's a pretty small spot, luckily and isn't hurting that much. However I'm still applying moisturiser to help but moisture back into my skin. My question is: How often should I apply the moisturiser on the sunburn?
Thanks in advance!

leg wound
Posted Sunday January 6 2008, 10:57 pm
i'm writing a book and one character gets stabbed in the upper leg. it needs to be a pretty bad wound cause another character is a doctor and fixes it.
problem 1 - the book is set in a time where there are no hospitals. so this has to be done in a forest where they are camping.
problem 2 - i have no idea what the process would be for something like that. is it possible that anyone could talk me through it? like what has to be done to fix it and what excersises and stuff need to be done to make sure it heals properly?
thankyou so much to anyone that can help!

toothache..please help!
Posted Thursday January 3 2008, 9:52 am
for the past 5 days i've been having an awful toothache (or mouthache) that seems to come and go. they come for about 15 minutes and then they come back very unexpectedly. i went to the dentist and he took xrays and filled a cavity and also cleaned my gums, hoping that would solve the problem. he noticed nothing else that could be solving this problem. even after seeing him, i'm in the same amount of pain. i can't pinpoint a certain tooth, it seems like just the whole left side of my mouth. it throbs and is just a very very strong pain, like nothing i've ever felt before. advil doesn't help. if anyone has had a problem like this or knows someone who has, please help! i'm desperate! thanks!
