My knees hurt and I'm only 13.?
Like the majority of the muscles you have in your body, the muscle that controls the kneecap has a tendon on it and it can become shortened, especially after it has had trauma put to it such as in falls. When that happens you can hope that mother nature will step in and release them for you or you can do it yourself. You have to keep a very tight grip on this to work, I have had to help some others when they wanted to do it because they couldn't get enough pressure on it to work. It is important for that pressure to be there especially when you are pulling your leg back and under the chair. When your knee is making the bend is the most important time of all, it is stretching the most there. Here is the method to use: Kneecap: (Use a chair that has no cross members on it.) While sitting start with your leg out in front of you extended out to a comfortable length. Wrap your hands around it so you have a good two inches working area. Place your thumbs about two inches behind your knee and press into the top middle of your leg hard and hold. Relax. After 30 seconds, slowly slide that leg back until it is pulled up under the chair as far as you can make it go. Then release the pressure but hold your leg there for one minute longer.
Knee pain!!!?
Ok so i'M 15, A girl, and a runner. Iv'e been running for more than a year now. The pain has been going on for a while. Sometimes it goes away for a day or two and when it comes back it really hurts. I went to my doctor, who took X- rays and said that my bones were fine. But when I run, It really kills. My shoes have good cushions and sometimes I wair an ace band. AT FIRST IT USED TO BE JUST ONE,BUT NOW IT'S BOTH. i CAN'T JUMP OR SKPI FOR MY LIFE I can't even do striders any more and I can't run bare foot either.Ifeel really severe throbbing and pressure.Nothing is swollen though.What the heck could this possibly be? My doctor is a mexican retard and hasn't really told me anything.
My St Bernard has torn ligaments in both knees, and I can't afford the surgery. Is there anything to help?
My friends own a St Bernard, and because their father passed away two years ago, they are financially tight. There is a surgery to repair the torn ligaments, but the vet seemed to indicate that sometimes it doesn't work. Is this a usual problem in St Bernards, and is there a recognized probability of success? Also, as the surgery is about two grand per knee, and though friends may be able to provide some money, that may not be entirely feasible. Is there any form of financial aid available? I know there's no such thing as a free surgery, but foundations, organizations, clinics-- is there anything set up to alleviate some of the cost for those who can't really afford it? Thanks

Knee popped out of place, then went back.....?
Last night I jumped on my bed, and as i did, somehow i twisted my knee and the knee cap popped out of place, then popped back into place. It was extremely painful, so much to the point where i was screaming(and I never scream when i get hurt). The pain only lasted about a min or two then it was just slightly throbbing. Today it still hurts a little bit, but I am able to walk. Why is my knee still hurting? Did I tear a ligament? I don't think I did because I read that you are still in a lot of pain when you tear a ligament and the pain in my knee today is very little.
I'm scared to have knee surgery?
I have to have my bone broken and moved over and a ligament fixed. I've never had a surgery before and I have to this summer. What's it like? What will happen from walking in the door to walking out?
My ex wife invited me to dinner tonight, I still love her should i go?
Okay. Being divorced from my high school sweetheart after 14 years together (this was nine years ago so I have a pretty clear picture of things these days) I can give you this advice. She's being nice. She's being nice to the father of her children and trying to build a friendly relationship with you since one way or another you will always be in each other's lives. Now for the smack upside the head. You're codependent. You need to get over it and move-on. Right now you are so blind by hurt and codependency that you don't think there will ever be anyone else for you. She seems like your only salvation. I can guarantee she's not. She doesn't love you in the husband/wife kind of way anymore. She cares about you lots, she doesn't want you run over by a bus or anything, but she doesn't want to be with you in a husband/wife relationship anymore. For her, there is too much bad water under the bridge to repair it. My wife and I got back together and tried to work it out. It was terrible. Everyday was spent worrying if she was still carrying-on with her coworker (whom she eventually married and divorced a couple of years later). Everyday I was worried she was going to leave me again. I worried myself down 40 pounds. By the time we finally called it quits it was like a huge weight had been lifted from me. I worked on myself. Got my self-esteem back. And two years later I married a wonderful woman. Now looking at this relationship I can clearly see how dysfunctional my first marriage was. The problem was we grew-up together, but in reality we stunted each other's growth because we never developed who we were before we became a couple. Our identities was the couple, not each of us individually. We never became our own person before we became a couple. Should you go tonight? I would respectfully decline. Otherwise you are just torturing yourself, which is another symptom of codependence and martyrdom.
Can I masturbate with a swollen sprained knee?
I injured myself 3 days ago in a motorcycle crash. Now my knee is all swollen. Not discolored, just a swollen knee. It might be a torn ligament, but I won't find out for a week or two, and the symptoms exactly match those for sprained knee. All the muscles work but just a little bit, they're getting better every day. I know that masturbating creates involuntary muscular contractions, and I know that if I try to use my leg muscles in any significant way they'll painfully seize up. However, I usually ejaculate once a day, and now that I haven't in a few I'm getting annoying erections and precum all the time. What do you think?
Can you feel pain in two places at once?
Well, my friends and I have argued about this for quite some time, I've tested this many times on myself by BITING my arm while pinching my other arm. The bite registers as pain and the pinching as pressure. If I pinch harder then I bite the opposite happens. I've googled "Can you feel pain in two places at once?" and came to an article on wikianswers that says you CAN, but has no proof. As crazy as it sounds, when I get hurt I'll start overloading my nerves by hitting myself in certain nerve bundled areas, which most of the time cancel out the pain I feel, but if one pain is too much, it's pointless. The pain that hurts worse is the one I feel as pain, everything else as pressure. My question is, is there any scientific way to prove pain can NOT be felt in two places AT ONCE?
I was diagnosed with bipolar two years ago and haven't seen a doctor since. My symptoms are worsening. I am hesitant to take medicines and see a new doctor. What can you advise me to do?
First, take a deep breath. You are not alone in your diagnosis or your anxiety regarding seeing a physician.My wife has Bipolar II among other mental and general health diagnoses. She is taking lithium for her Bipolar disorder, without it her moods are out of control. Her symptoms worsened over time prior being medicated, eventually requiring two nights in a psychiatric unit (voluntary).The lithium (and the other medications she takes daily) is not without its side effects, particularly weight gain, and requires occasional blood tests. But her life has improved significantly once her psychiatrist found the right dosage for her.As for me, I have general anxiety disorder, depression, and undiagnosed but textbook PTSD stemming from childhood sexual abuse. I have made progress but to this day become very anxious having anyone that I do not fully trust touch me or put me in vulnerable positions. I bet you can guess where both problems manifest themselves the most!I was a Paramedic for around a decade and have many physician friends. I have no fear of doctors but avoided seeing one for years because of the before mentioned anxiety. I finally pushed myself to see one, with my wife by my side, and was placed on an antidepressant.It was a life changing moment and I wish that I had done it years before, there is no telling where my life could be now if I had. I experienced my share of side effects (mostly sleep and sexual) but my psychiatrist found the sweet spot on the dose and I am doing great now.I still experience anxiety and depression from time to time, my wife still experiences the occasional mood swings. But it's like the volume has been turned all the way down, the symptoms are there but easy to overcome and with a short duration.Try to make an appointment and stick with it. The hardest part is making the call (I had my wife do it for me) and the wait.Doctors and nurses want nothing more than to help you, when I came in they were extremely understanding and patient with me. They can do the necessary blood work (unfortunately, that's a guaranteed part of the visit) and get you started on some medication. Ultimately, you will need to be under the care of a psychiatrist.Please feel free to message me. Good luck, you got this!
