Back Neck and Spinal Pain

You ought to see your regular physician/PA/NP first and let them determine if you need to see a specialist. What they will do is examine you and get the right lab tests, Xrays/MRI/CT scan, etc to see if you really do need to see a specialist. It would be a shame for you to go to an internal medicine doctor, then find out you should have gone to a surgeon or cancer doctor.

The most common cause of nerve endings to the shoulder results from a proximal humerus fracture. Running circumferential to the proximal end of the humerus is the axillary nerve. Injury to the humerus such as fractures or subluxation can directly injure the axillary nerve resulting in possible sensation loss or muscle weakness around the deltoid, teres minor and triceps muscle.

Other causes of injury:

- Injections (for e.g. cortisone) and vaccinations: if given too high in the anterior (front part) aspect of the deltoid, may result in the rupture of the axillary nerve

Lumbarization of the s 1, or top segment of the sacrum, refers to a birth defect where the sacrum is not fused to the rest of the spine properly. Experts believe it is simply something that happens inside the womb, and very rarely affects a person's health.

Well panadol and nurafen are the same but they do different jobs. panadol goes to the pain and covers it so the messages from the brain cant get in. Nurafen goes to the brain and covers the place where the brain is sending messages to the pain. Same thing but go to different places

Pregnancy - especially in the beginning - does not cause physical pain. You're experiencing residual effects from your mentrual cycle. Use protection and you won't have to ask this question again.

Although no protection is ever 100% guaranteed (so the comment above is a bit misleading and unnecessary)

First of all, numbness in the legs is a symptom of a problem. It could be anything from poor posture restricting the blood flow, to vitamin deficiency, blood clot, multiple sclerosis, tumor and many other things. You need to go see your physician. Do not rely on advice form others, especially from the Internet.

Back pain can range from a dull, constant pain to a sudden, sharp pain that makes it hard to move. It can start quickly if you fall or lift something too heavy, or it can get worse slowly.

If you get heavy pain means you can put some ice cubes or ice pack on that place, so that some what you can get pain relief.

If you're interesting in nursing and phlebotomy, getting a degree online is possible but difficult. You can take the tests to get certified online through an accredited local university, but you will still have to spend time doing your physical residency.

It depends. It is actually better to exercise as much as you can - just stretches and walking, nothing vigorous. However, if standing or walking is too painful, try sitting and stretching with a heating pad on the sore spot. If that doesn't work, lying down is the last resort, but it actually makes a sore back worse according to the latest evidence.

yes

I've been having lower back pain and tender breasts for a couple of days now, it got worse today, and from my calculations and observations, I ovulated today. I also had a raise in temperature and felt slightly feverish. Discovered egg-white mucus today.

Put your palms flat to the wall, your feet on the floor and flat together. Push against the wall as you push yourself against the wall as if doing a push up against the wall.

If you find gentle excercise not to be effective, try a relatively hot bath or a hot water bottle applied to the lower back.

There are many natural ways to relieve lower back pain. One of the best ways is to use a heating pad, or by soaking in a hot bath or a jacuzzi. Other natural ways include using herbs or plants with pain-relieving qualities such as Dong Quai and Fo-ti. Both of these herbs are used by people to attain pain relief.

The best medication to take to relieve lower back pain is Tylenol or Advil. Non-medical treatment options include limiting bed rest, maintain good posture, apply ice and heat, and relaxation techniques.

The short answer is No (although you may have pain on the front side of your thigh from the "femoral or subcutaneous femoral nerve" (or othter spinal nerves). You may also feel "referred" pain, in the lower front portion of your leg from another spinal nerve (such as L3-4). The longer answer simply involves knowing where the sciatic nerve runs. Taken from another answer : The sciatic nerve is the largest and longest nerve in the body. About the thickness of a person's thumb, it spans from the lower back to the foot. The nerve originates in the lower part of the spinal cord, the so-called lumbar region. As it branches off from the spinal cord, it passes between the bony vertebrae (the component bones of the spine) and runs through the pelvic girdle, or hip bones. The nerve passes through the hip joint and continues down the B A C K of the leg to the foot.

You could have accidentially jammed it. I have done it before playing basketball. It hurts. You could try wrapping it or using a splint to put pressure on it and prevent it from getting hurt worse. A splint is just like a metal finger cast with foam on the inside that you can sorta shape around your finger.

Start with your primary care provider, who can do initial screening and referral to determine the most practical specialist and to get some of the initial testing done before you see the specialist.

You are probably just dying !

lol your probly coming down with summic. If it gets worse go to doctors and see if they know.

Yes, it can be a sign of pregnancy. Take a test

Did you have unprotected sex within the last 28 days? If yes then there is a chance that you could be pregnant. The best way to find out is to have a pregnancy test 4 weeks after the event of unprotected sex. But a miss period and some stomach aches are not the only symptoms of pregnancy. Missed periods and stomach ahces also come from stress. The more you stress and panic about the possibility of being pregnant the likely hood you may just skip your period for that month, thus worrying you even more.

So take the test or go and talk to your local sexual health clinic, or do both. As getting stressed out doesn't help anyone, especially you.

Could be a kidney infection. Also some venereal diseases have similar symptoms. Hope you have a health care plan.

Any abdominal problem can aggravate a sciatic problem, but sciatica is generally caused by the L4/5 disk pressing on the sciatic nerve. The pain is unmistakable, as it travels down the back of your legs into your feet. Essentially it feels like you've been stabbed in the lower back by a gnome from the inside that's twisting the knife around and enjoying it.

Since Crohns can affect how a person sits, walks and lies down, it can affect a person's overall posture and pressure on the lower back, and thus the sciatic nerve, making any sciatic problem worse.

yes it can cause back and chest pain.

You need to see a doctor for a diagnosis and treatment of a strep throat.;

Well, i don't know how to completely heal a sore throat, but this will help:

Sweet tea, or unsweetened (your choice, both work well) it can be cold or warm.

Add A little bit of fresh squeesed lemon juice, leave the lemon in if you prefer, if you swallow any part of the lemon it could irritate your throat, though this is unlikely.

Vics Vapor rub will help break up chest congestion. ibeprophen will help sooth the pain, follow dosing instructions.

Stay away from salty foods. Ice cream helps and its tasty

gargarl salt water :)

It could be a sign you are going to miscarry. It could also be a sign you chose the wrong thing for lunch!! The only way to know, really, is to wait and see. Unless you have a doctor who is willing to send you for an ultrasound this early, which mine never were.
