Is there a splint for elbow for ulnar neuropathy?
After I was diagnosed a few years ago, my doctor sent me for physical therapy and the therapis made me a hard splint to wear while sleeping. The absolute BEST part was the sleeve I had to wear over my arm before putting on the splint. It was a flesh colored sleeve, like the lining of a cast, and it had a squishy gel pad built in which rested over the outside of the elbow and prevented any ZINGS while my nerve was trying to heal. I wore that thing OUT and have just made my own version. DON'T laugh ... cut the toe end off an old sock and slip it over your arm. Now tuck a travel-size pack of tissues (maxi pad works well also) inside the sleeve and cover your outer elbow with it. It REALLY protects you, and with a long-sleeve shirt no one will know what it's made it of!
What is the worst kind of pain that a person can have?
The worst kind of pain that a person can have is the pain caused to them through their child/children. IE if something happens to them, if they are separated, if the child/children turn against the Parent(s), when a Mother suffers for, through, because of her child/children. The Virgin Mary experienced this pain when Christ was crucified. Personally, I would give my own life if it meant saving my child's with absolutely no hesitation.
What are appropriate sports for back pain and kidney pain?
If you suffer from back pain or kidney pain, you may want to try sports that don't rely on your back or lumbar region. Perhaps riding recumbent bikes, weightlifting for other parts of the body, perhaps walking, running, or jogging, and perhaps kayaking (depending on how your back pain works). A doctor can examine you and help you determine what sports fit with your physical limitations.

Will you be able to play the piano with a sprained wrist?
It depends how bad the sprain is. I suggest taking it easy and keeping it iced until the swelling goes down. Take pain meds if necessary and with your physician's approval. It should start to feel better within a week or two and you'll be back to playing piano.

Where is the most painful pressure point?
It depends on the person as each person has a different Pain Threshold. A pressure point that might incapacitate you might not even bother me.
Generally though, pressure points in the arm, hand and wrist are most effective for "compliance" of someone you wish to control. Body pressure points are primarily for incapacitation and are used in a group or a pair rather than a single point.
The elbow pressure point (where the ulnar nerve is) can be very painful for most people, though it must be remembered that pressure points, while in the same general location, aren't in the exact location for each person. That's why Martial Artists train for many years to study different people to learn how to find a pressure point quickly as a means to disarm or render an attacker harmless. Despite how it might seem, it is not that easy to learn. As I said in the beginning, each person is different, and will react differently to any given stimulus on a given pressure point.

Are you sure you have not re-injured the knee in some way? If the fracture you mentioned was years ago then perhaps it didn't heal properly or like I said you may have re-injured it. Do you do any stressful exercise or anything that might re-aggravate it? Obviously a doctor will know more. It sounds like you are doing all the right things, maybe try some different shoes.
During the menstrual cycle, a specific chemical causes the ovaries to contract, temporarily cutting off the oxygen supply to the tubes. This is what causes cramps. If pain is very severe or is due to something other than the common menstrual cycle, it would be best to seek immediate medical attention.

What could it mean if you have pain in your left side when you walk and slight vaginal bleeding?
Any "out-of-the-oridinary" vaginal bleeding, whether heavy or slight should be checked by your gynecologist. If accompanied by pain on either side, there's the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is when a fertilized egg has implanted somewhere outside of the uterus.. usually in a fallopian tube and can be very, very dangerous (even fatal) if not caught before the fallopian tube bursts.
