Why would sneezing cause sternum popping and pain?
They may result from trauma, such as when a driver's chest is forced into the steering column of a car in a car accident. A fracture of the sternum is usually a comminuted fracture. The most common site of sternal fractures is at the sternal angle. Some studies reveal that repeated punches or continual beatings, sometimes called "sternum punches", to the sternum area have also caused fractured sternums. Those are known to have occurred in contact sports such as rugby and football. Sternum fractures are frequently associated with underlying injuries such as pulmonary contusions, or bruised lung tissue.
What is the treatment for arm and hand pain?
That usually is indicative of a cervical disk pressing on a nerve, usually at the C6/7 disk if you're feeling it in your fingers. It depends on the severity of the problem; if it's a full herniation with little chance of recovery, then a fusion at those vertebrae is the most common procedure. If it's mild enough, they'll try a facet injection with steroids to try and reduce the disk inflammation enough to reduce pressure on the nerve.
Either way, anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, and pain meds, along with no heavy lifting and keeping your neck from being strained will be included in the treatment.
What is the strongest pain relever?
I'm going to say it's a tie between aspirin, acetaminophen and ibuprofin. A lot of marketing has gone into comparing millgram dosage and painkilling effect -- that is to say that advertisers like to note it takes less millgrams of a given painkiller to produce a similar analgesic effect than that of another painkiller. To me, this seems a little disingenuous, as the patient is not really concerned with the millgrams taken as they are with the painkilling effect achieved. All three meds I listed have very similar properties and present similar hazards as well. I'd advise you to read up on them when you get the chance, as there are contraindications. That said, you can achieve a similar level of analgesic effect with each of these meds.

This isn't normal but it is reasonably common. Many women experience bleeding in the early part of pregnancy. Often it will settle and the pregnancy proceeds as normal.

What does it mean if the girl has pain during her periods?
Nearly 50% of all women suffer from Dysmenorrheal, the medical name for menstrual cramps. In fact for some women these cramps are so severe that they have to take bed rest and stop doing their daily routine for a few days. Most girls enter puberty after they have completed their menarche or their first monthly menses and this continues for women till she starts her menopause which indicates the end of the menses.

For some people menses is often occupied by symptoms of headache, dizziness and even nausea. This makes them want to find answers to the question http://www.howtogetridofmenstrualcramps.net/
How do you get rid of painful spots?
Spots are such a pain...
Whatever you do, don't squeeze them!
The best way to get rid of them is to use spot cream whenever you can. I recommend the spot treatment product: Clearasil. Use their pads and cream daily. Not only does it gets rid of spots, it prevents them. Good Luck!
A DENTIST!!! All of the over the counter products or pills may not be as effective as seeing your dentist...I strongly advise you see them if you are having problems.
If you have no access to a dentist, try clove oil from chemist/ drugstore. Failing that, a drop of whiskey or brandy swilled around the tooth also helps.

What diet is best for gallbladder pain?
After suffering for years myself, the first thing I would suggest is to remove eggs and coffee out of the diet completely. Pork is also a common culprit. Try to choose lower fat meal options and avoid creamy type foods, like ice-cream or mayonaisse, etc. This should be a good start.
Between your middle ear and your throat there is a passage called the eustachian (say: yoo-stay-she-un) tube. The eustachian tubes (you have one on each side) keep pressure from building up by letting air move in and out of your middle ear. When you were young, especially before you turned 3, the eustachian tubes were very small and less able to keep germs out.
The eustachian tubes get longer and usually work better in older kids, but they can still cause problems. If you have allergies or catch a cold, the eustachian tubes can get blocked up and let germs get in the middle ear. Then the number of germs can grow inside your middle ear and cause an infection.
You do not catch ear infections from other people, though you might catch a cold that then leads to an ear infection. If you have an ear infection, you might have ear pain, a fever, or trouble hearing. If you have any of these problems, tell your parent so he or she can take you to the doctor.
You might be talking about ear piercing infections, or just a regular ear infection, but I will try to answer both.
For ear piercing: MOST PEOPLE DON'T CLEAN THEIR HANDS BEFORE TOUCHING OR DOING ANYTHING WITH THEIR EARRINGS. That's how most people's earring holes get infected, so always wash your hands before doing anything with your earrings! Also, some people might have sensitive ears, and you get the wrong type of earrings when you get your ears pierced. (That's what happened to me). Or, when you are allowed to take your earrings out, some people will like keep only the cheap earrings in, which is not the best idea if you have sensitive ears because those are not hypoallergenic earrings.
General Ear infections: to much ear wax in your ears without cleaning it out can cause an ear infection, but that's the only reason I really know of...sorry!
Ear, Nose and Throat have a very close relation. Moreover, they are interconnected either directly or indirectly. So, infection of any one of these may lead to the infection of others.
VolkanAkkurt wrote: Use 50% white vinegar and 50% Rubbing Alcohol mix. Use 1-2 drops before the infection starts.
Why is there a sharp pain underneath my knee?
This is not an answer but more information about my problem. I've been on crutches for about 2 months and 2 weeks. I haven't used my left leg much (the side with the knee pain). I got the go to use my boot so I started walking in my boot about a week ago. The first 3 days I had no pain whatsoever then come the next day I got a sharp pain underneath my left knee. It hurts when it bears weight or when it feels tension but feels relieved when I bend it. Is it because the muscles underneath my knee are weak, is it growing pains?? I'm also 15 years old, athletic, healthy, not overweight, and still growing.
