Concussion?
Posted Tuesday March 13 2007, 9:50 pm
Well, I'm a klutz. I whacked myself in the head pretty hard with a piece of exercise equipment. I've got a nice bump and a big bruise on my head now. Nothing a little makeup can't fix.
My problem is, how will I know if I have a concussion or not? I walk into things and fall over for no reason already, and I have almost daily chronic migranes (I've been diagnosed by a doctor AND the balance issues are related to the headaches).
So, how will I (or a doctor, for that matter) know if I've suffered a concussion?
thanks in advance.

Keloid from cartilage ear piercing
Posted Wednesday March 7 2007, 8:36 pm
I got my ear cartilage pierced a year ago in december. Well I kept it in for a whole year and it didn't cause me any problems. It completely healed. But the past 3 months or so my piercing got sore and and inflamed and formed a hard bump. It feels like there is a hugs pimple under the skin. But it surrounds the hole. I researched it and I'm guessing it is a Keloid. The hole is still there, but is it safe to keep wearing an earring in the hole? Or should I let it alone? Will the keloid go away? I saw some pretty disturbing pictures on the internet...it isn't going to spread is it? I'm quite worried.

MY BACK HURTS!!!
Posted Wednesday March 7 2007, 3:37 pm
I have scoliosis in my upper back and I have torn ligaments there as well. It have gone to physical therapy for my upper back and everything is running smoothly again. But now, something is wrong with my lower back. I actually think I pulled a muscle and it's KILLING ME!!! I can barely stand and it's hard to focus in class because it hurts so bad. I have tried alternating ice and warmth on it but it doesn't work. I take three aleve every morning and it doesn't work. Does anyone have any other quick fixes for back pain? Anything OTHER than a doctor's appointment perhaps? (I'm not stupid lol I know I can go there if nothing helps.)

I have a toothache, only when I chew on the tooth. If i press on a certain part of the tooth, it hurts. I've come to the conclusion that I have a cavity forming. Is there any way to treat it before it turns into something big? I despise the dentist.

Shoulder pricks
Posted Friday March 2 2007, 5:07 am
For the past two days I have had this little prick on my shoulder which I thought was cool because my muscles get stiff sometimes when I don't strech properly. Put this one felt like a sting every time I moved. It's kind of on the lower shoulder a little towards my back and moderately close to my neck.
So I had my friend try to massage the crink out. He was doing it and all of a sudden I started getting dizzy and felt faint. I thought it would pass but it didn't so he told me to lie down on the floor on my back. My ears were ringing very loudly. I closed my eyes until the feeling passed but my ears still rung for another twenty minutes.
The crick is still in my neck/shoulder/back and I don't know what to do about it. It's pain...

tailbone
Posted Monday February 26 2007, 9:21 pm
I have NO idea why, but my tailbone (or the hard flat bone thing right above my butt) has been hurting reallly bad lately. It especially hurts when i sit down and then REALLY bad when I stand up. I haven't don't anything to injure it lately like any type of exercises and I haven't fallen on it. I don't know what to do because it seems like sitting makes it hurt worse but I have to sit all the time at school. The whole area and one specific spot in the middle just feels VERY sore! What should i do??

Should
Posted Monday February 26 2007, 8:48 pm
I play softball(fastpitch) and I have been basically my whole entire life. I have always had a sort of side armed kind of throw and recently on my permadent move to the outfield my high school coaches have been trying to correct my throw. My throw is getting alot better but now I am having alot of shoulder problems because of this (my coach said it would happen) its like a sharp jolt of pain all down my arm right after i throw. I have been taking pain medicine, icing it and using icy hot before practice and it has slowly been getting better. I am now at the point where I do not have any pain unless i throw it hard at a far distance.
I am happy with the progress I made but the thing is next monday are our tryouts and I am goin...

A few days ago I had a hard fall outside. I was wearing shorts and now I have some bad cuts/scrapes and wounds on my shin. They're not bad enough I have to go to the hospital or anything. But they're really ugly and now I can't wear skirts/shorts because it looks icky. What things can I do to make it heal really fast? Anything in particular?

Wrist
Posted Thursday February 22 2007, 4:15 pm
I'm not sure if this is the right category but...
Today we were playing soccer in gym and I was the goalie [and I'm the least athletic girl you'll ever find] and we weren't using regular soccer balls since the last one got kicked up onto the rooft -- dont ask-- and so we were using one of those hard, rubber dodge balls filled with air and this girl that just happened to be very athletic kicked it and I tried to block it with my hand (didn't work by the way) and the ball bent my wrist way back and I had ice on it for the whole day in school.
It's a little swollen and I can't move my wrist without it hurting [I couldn't pick my violin up, write, tie my hair, hold onto stuff, etc--I can move it a little but it hu...

Getting Very Sick From MORTIN.
Posted Wednesday February 21 2007, 3:23 pm
I've been taking Motrin for the past five days. I'm female, in my high teens. I have not seen a doctor, and seeing a doctor is out of the question. I'm taking Motrin that was left over from my brother's war injury. Each pill is 800 milligrams. I take about three Motrin a day, plus about 4 Ibuprofen a day, but I do not take Motrin and Ibuprofen at the same time. And I never take any pills on an empty stomach.
The medicine eases my crippling back injury, but I'm sick as a dog. I looked online for signs of an overdose and then common side effects.
At the website:
