Wondering if anyone has any advice for a 30 year old experiencing pain in both hips and lower back? I sleep on my stomach which puts pressure on my lower back, and my hips ache and feel tight after sitting. It doesn’t really seem like something to visit the doctors for so does anybody else have any recommendations please?

Can someone please explain to me why this is happening or give me advice on how to make it stop. The inside of my ears are itchy multiple times a day, I don’t want to damage my ears!!

It just...it just never ends, you know? It's just one crisis after another, one wound after another. It never stops. It just...it never stops. I can't remember the last time I was happy when medication wasn't involved.

I'm so tired. I'm so fucking tired. Of all of it. Tired of the bad luck. Tired of things always going wrong. Tired of one ugly surprise after another. My life literally feels like a jack-in-the-box from Hell. Just one more atrocity waiting to pop up.

I don't want to die. I really don't. But gods help me I need the pain to STOP. I need something to CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. I can't take this anymore and yet I do day after day after day and I just.. 💔

I injured my neck over 2 months ago at my workplace and it started with a epidural hematoma and a scan showed fluid in the spine. Then I had a second scan and was moved to another hospital for a week where the neurosurgeon found severe chord compressions in the spine. my c6 and c7 a and b have less than a 3 mm gap. Then i was sent home with gabapentin and tramadol and then after a week and severe pain I was put on dilaudids. I have followed up with the neurosurgeon in his office and he said we just need to wait a 2nd month and then another MRI. I am told not to twist, bend, lift or pull or drive.

So fun times, he said i cannot do physio or chiro and although its a WCB claim, my prognosis isn't great. I asked about surgery but he said i could end up not being able to walk or talk or be in a wheelchair , so at 42 years old i am told to binge watch netflix, get my kids to help out and put a ton of burden of cleaning our house and cooking .

If i do too much i am in agony the next day for 2 days and can barely move. Its not way to live. I can do walks and that's about it. I use both heat and ice but nothing helps much other than the meds.

I am looking into a surgeon in spain who apparently will do any spinal surgery needed. If i get another "rest for 2 months " at my next surgeon appt I will look at the route of going to spain.

it's just a real pain in the neck ;)

Should I be concerned?

Hello I am a 14 (f) and I’m saying that cuz it’s maybe it’s relevant to my health and here’s like quick summary of my health check my past posts for more details. I have heachaches when I’m like over thinking and stressed and might take a long time for them to fade even maybe after I stop over thinking but it’s like my whole head to like my left, right, front and like base(like back of head). And idk if that’s normal. I’ve been having like stomach aches and sometimes I can feel throbbing of like small 2 balls if I like lean forward or just laying down or droning something to like walking. I soemtimes get small fevers that maybe last 5 minute and then go away throughout the day. I vommited around 2 days ago. I’ve always probably been a gassy person but now it’s like very bad I’ve burped a lot and farted. Some days I don’t poop and soemtimes hard to fart. And I thought about soemthing else but I forgot. I also be forgetting things. Oh nvm I remember I felt and saw like a vein go like over my bone like on my bone and I touched it and messed with it and put it back in place maybe and my like hand, wrist and arm been hurting since then.

I recently just turned 20 and I’m having severe pains in my hips knees back and shoulders (shoulder left side I have injured recently) but the rest idk where it has come from I am going to note i enjoyed boxing and lifting weights which i only train my legs due to the 9 month long injury right now

all the people around me tell me im not gonna cope at 30-40-50 if im in this much pain at 20 not being able to get out of bed some days and most people dont believe me due to my age

I’ve added a reference photo where the line is is where my pain is. Just randomly started a week ago. Hurts with walking and stretching it the most.

I have been having discomfort and pain on the right side of my neck and it comes and goes but I feel it when I swallow sometimes or when I lean to pick things up (when I move my neck). I've noticed I've had palpable lymph nodes on that side for over a year now and they seemed large so I've gotten an ultrasound done but they said they're just benign and reactive. However, a year later I still feel this pain and it seems like I have one lymph node in particular that seems pretty solid and not very moveable. It's located near/behind the SCM muscle but it's definitely deep as it's further back on the front of my neck. Any ideas on what this could be, could it be something else other than a lymph node? Here is image of location of lump:

Please don't just say ask a doctor. I'm on a waiting list, and I also waited years ago and got fobbed off, has been going on 6 + years. I play guitar a lot and believe it's some kind of carpel tunnel due to amount of pain. It's really bad right now and I have to wait half a year at least just for a basic appointment.

I use tiger balm right now, it feels good, but I suspect it's just a cover up. Is there much i can do to make the pain less?

I have been having dull pain in my right knee for about a month and it keeps getting worse. It gets much worse during night or at rest and sometimes it hurts while walking. Now along with the dull pain I am getting sharp deep aching pain in my knee. The pain is under my knee, on the sides, above my knee and ontop. I've tried ibuprofen, panadol, celecoxib, and Voltaren which don't work, I also tired tried tramadol but it doesn't take the pain away completely. I had no injuries prior to this am I am moderately active. I have no swelling or redness, only change I've noticed is that right under my right knee it looks alittle fatter compared to my left knee. I also getting pins and needles in my knee and i have had alittle bit of numbness above my knee that lasted for a couple of minutes. I've had an xray and it's come back as normal. What could this be and has anyone else experienced something similar?

Has anyone else dealt with pain in their lower leg area, specifically the peroneal tendon? I've been dealing with this pain for over a year and don't know what to do at this point.

I've been going to physio where they use ultrasound and shock wave therapy but I'm still not healing. I don't have any pain when I flex and move my foot around. The pain is very localized.

I feel like I should get a second opinion. I'm tired of dealing with this pain. I got an ultrasound done recently and thankfully it didn't show anything.

It's affecting my mood now. I'm sad that it hurts to walk and even stand sometimes. I'm not old at all and just so frustrated by this.

Hi, Jay this side, 22M. I have pain in my knees specially in my right knee when I sit on chair for doing work, or apply pressure on it, mri showed nothing...I earlier had vitamin d and b12 deficiency which got exposed by blood test after that I started taking tablets for it and the pain which in my left leg earlier went away but now it has moved to right knee my orthopaedic doctor said you might be having inflammation ( arthritis) even though my blood report showed normal range of RA factor, pls help what's happening, my right knee which is hurting right now clicks alot special when I stand up, I do cycling and exercises but it's not improving pls help me out

7 weeks ago I randomly got a cramp like feeling suddenly in lower left abdomen. Over time this has moved to flank pain in waves and worse with movement. Sometimes burning sore feeling in stomach then skin feels sore. Also skin leaving red marks from gentle pressure. Bowel movements can do from orange musus to dark small balls and on and off blood mixed in stool. Blood tests all fine, apart from very high IGA. Had colonoscopy which was clear. CT scan shown lesion in liver and ultrasound shown small kidney stone in only 1 kidney.

Any one had this or know what this could be please? Lump also found in cervix but told this wouldn't cause the symptoms I have been having.

I have herniated discs in my neck and back and that’s as far as I know from my problem of my causes. But my symptoms are that I have unstable ankles, wrists, elbows, knees, neck, shoulders, lower back. It feels like all those areas are weak and it feels like no matter how much I try to move them they don’t get any better and only get weaker or more painful. I’ve been trying to do physical therapy exercises for several months and I seem to be getting worse, my nerves feel like they’re being pinched more every day.

I take anxiety medication and meloxicam for inflammation, but it still seems like I can’t walk more than a couple minutes without my feeling like they’re about to fall off or my lower back feel like my disc is pushing on my nerve

I don’t know what to do. If anyone has any advice, please let me know ,

Thank you.

Has anyone taken gabapentin while doing physical therapy and actually felt pain free once PT was done and stopped taking the meds?

I just started taking this in hopes that it will allow me to gain strength in PT and fix the root cause of my back pain. Right now I am unable to move much without debilitating pain. I don’t want to be on this medication long term.

I am worried that I will go through weeks of medication and PT only for pain to still be there when I taper off the meds.

What has your experience been?

Headache like all over my head

Hello I am 14 years old but I have like headaches that hurt not so bad but it’s mainly my left side in a specific side like pretty near my eyebrow it feels like its tight and it hurts and like a like more to the middle left of my head (not top of head) it might feel like something is moving and it caused me discomfort. And on top of my head near the left where the like coming is it hurts like if I were to hit it. The right side it might just randomly hurt like if soemone hit me. The back left of my head also sometimes hurts maybe the most pain but it can be random. The front of my forehead to the left also like hurts soemtimes too. Note that I use to have like religious OCD maybe like 2 years ago which probably caused me a lot of stress and over thinking and my head might of hurt then. And it might of come back again a year later but maybe a lot worse and I still am a worried person even if it’s not religious accioated like I might be scared to get caught getting on my phone a lot and I’m a pretty paranoid person over all so that could cause headaches. Expect this time these headaches are maybe a whole lot worse even if I’m not even thinking. Like maybe a few months ago I got a be headaches all over my forehead but that kinda went away now if it does hurt it’s just my left side probably. PS I might heard fluid like blop blop blop and I don’t know if it came from my head or the juice and Gatorade next to me but I don’t even know if moved them.

How does one move forward when trauma in the past always worms back, creeps in reminding you that everything you do no matter what you do or where you go - others are still in control, we are never truly free,… Wish there were low cost places that offered Tai chi classes… self defense …… in pain .. fibromyalgia, insomnia, fatigue.. . when jobs pay you less because of being a women… L

I keep getting this pain in my neck when I turn my head too fast or reach too far. What’s wrong with me? Who do I go to?

Der Wunsch zu sterben legt sich wieder in mein krankes Gehirn.

My mind is racing right now, three days grace inside my head but the rage is uncontainable.

Paragraphs of pain but expressed into nothingness, left with nothing but pure hostility and fuel; maybe my intoxication has got the best of me but why do feelings of pain persist inside of normal individuals.

Dramatic messaging, powerful pressing of keys, who decides what is right or wrong?

Pain persists, pain persists. Pain, persists. Pain is persisting. PAIN IS PERSISTING. WHY IS THE PAIN PERSISTING.

Maybe we aren't whole; maybe we are only fragments of ourselves.

PLEASE SOMEONE STOP THE PAIN FROM PERSISTING

Maybe, maybe.

Maybe we are powerful but we aren't practical.

F16 I hate this shit. Why, as an artist, it's the hands that have to suffer constant pain. I can't take it anymore. You wake up and it feels like you've been skinned. I haven't started drawing in a long time because it's painful to hold a pen in my hands. I'm so tired of this pain coming and going in waves. I can't even understand where it's coming from. It's like it's everywhere. But tensing my arms is the worst thing I can do during these periods. I'm tired of fighting it all. It took me a long time to even type this. I'm so tired, but without vent, I have no other healthy way to deal with it all. I just want to cry all the time.. You're just walking with a friend, holding hands and bam, weakness takes over your body and your friend has to help you not to fall to the ground like soggy bread. I'm not even talking about climbing stairs.. It's just that, looking at the energy fields of my peers, I feel like... a loser. Like... who needs a helpless one like me anyway.

Hey Yall- College student here and my toe hurts. Basically the pain is usually in my big toe or the two toes next to it, stemming from the area around the joint (point of articulation begween second right metatarsal and proximal phalange of the foot) in my toes. It hurts mostly when I walk. If i stand on my tippy toes or put weight on my toes while sitting down, it’s the worst. I’d rate the pain somewhere along a 4 5 or 6. It’s been hurting for about two weeks. Not really any bruising seen on the outside of my toe, and I don’t recall hitting it on anything. Lmk if yall think I should get it checked out. It’s not severe pain but i’m just worried why it hasn’t gone away or gotten better.
