Avatar n tn Ive also had several sports massages on my knees which really helps for a week or so and then the problems return, so it must not be treating the underlying problem. I haven't run since the injury occurred. I've played football (soccer) a few times, but not for over a month now and there isn't much of an improvement. What can I do about this? I love sports of all kinds but can't do anything at the moment. Is it just an injury that takes a long time to heal?
700000 tn?1231287536 t lose any strength in the arm but did lose ALOT of flexibility. I still was able to go on to play college Division 1A football as a defensive end for another 5 years. The only problem I have is that it is kind of a bummer in that without the flexibility in my wrist, some of my basketball and martial arts activities that I participate in currently are limited. I still live a normal life as an engineer and go to the gym 5 - 6 times per week and never feel any pain except on REALLY cold days.
Avatar m tn My mother is a nurse who disagrees with me that you need a structured diet and fitness program from a doctor to truly lose weight. She is giving loads of grief because I want to the lose weight but I have not done any exercising till I have seen the specialist concerning it. I told her I wanted to make the appointment but told me to pretty much run 3 miles and eat whatever I want. I am not a nurse but that does not sound correct to me.
Avatar n tn Vigorous low-impact exercise is beneficial – for your joints, as well as for cardiovascular, pulmonary, and other systems in your body. If you can't do vigorous exercise, try walking, tai chi and yoga. If you're overweight then you need to diet. Drink concentrated tart cherry juice. it contains anthocyanins and bioflavonoids, which help support a healthy immune response for your joints. Make sure you're getting your vit. D, omega-3 fatty acids from krill or high quality fish oil.
Avatar m tn s uncomfortable to sit even for short periods of time as there is a dull pain from my glutes down the back of my legs. I have been to a spinal PT and I temporarily felt better but not much. He focused only on my spine and said my movement was very limited for a 27 year old. I had an X-ray taken in December that my Internal Med. Physician initially said revealed dehydrated discs around the S1 area but later said they looked fine. I have been doing yoga 3-5 times a week the past 1.
Avatar n tn So, heating pad for 10 minutes, then ice pack (bag of frozen peas works great) for 10 minutes. Continue to alternate for as long as you want. you don't want to go longer than 10-15 minutes for either since irritated muscles can actaully increase in spasm activity if you leave them for too long. The heat will help relax the muscle and slow the spasms and the cold will sooth and reduce inflammation.
Avatar n tn My son was injured in a football game when he was 17. He had back surgery at that time. (In retrospect, probably a mistake) He is now 26 and has been on some type of opiate for 8 years. He is now taking 40 mg of Oxycotin twice daily plus Oxycodone (dosage unknown). I recently discovered that he was injecting the Oxycotin. After many long talks, he says he is now ready to detox. A facility in Nashville has described their program as a 4 day inpatient detox.
Avatar n tn m sorry, but something seems amiss here. If she has a diagnosis of SB and CP, then that is a reason for her to not be able to run and any doctor would be able to see that. Medicine does not always have the answers, it is and never will be, an exact science. Doctors do the very best they can.
Avatar n tn At home we continuously tell my new 6th grader (only) child not to talk in class and in the hallway. But we receive notes and oral comments from two teachers that he talks in class and in the hallway after being warned. What can we do at home to encourage him to be quiet and obey when told to be quiet. He's in a Magnet program and you must keep a B average in all subject areas including conduct.
Avatar n tn Hello, I play football in highschool, and have been playing football for 5 years now. My problem is, even though ive been working out for 5 years, I am extremelly out of shape. I have increased my stamina ever so slightlly over these years. I am barelley over wieght, yet I still am in the back, running with the 300 pound guys. I am even active outside of football practice, playing football with my freinds, and walking around my block often.
Avatar n tn They consist of stretching and holding different joint and muscle groups for 10 to 30 seconds each. Stretching improves flexibility, and daily stretching is the basis for any exercise program. Strength exercises involve working the muscle against resistance. This can be either with or without weights. Resistance training strengthens the muscle and increases the amount of activity you can do pain-free. Conditioning exercise, also called aerobic exercise, improves cardiovascular fitness.
990988 tn?1249273779 Hello, I am currently using www.Totellwellness.com as an emotional eating program and so far it has worked well even with out a diet. Is it true that you can loose weight with out traditional "gym" excercising and by overcoming your attachment with food? My program says to just move for 20 minuets, like taking a walk or playing with kids. I did so the past two weeks and have lost 3 pounds, this was with getting rid of all the foods I identified as addictive. thanks for you insight.
Avatar f tn I am 228 lbs although some of that is most likely from joining football and a crossfit athletic program a year ago. I would ultimately like to be more fit and more agile. I love lifting because of the crossfit program (which I am no longer in because of school and other activities). I have access to the school weight room. I have a horrible diet probably because of my huge despise towards veggies (absolutely can't eat them) and my somewhat addiction to soda.
Avatar m tn CONGRATS!!! Keep going strong..As for the football season deal with that when it comes just keep in today and don't make a reservation for yourself!!!!!
Avatar f tn t know where you are, but our community college in Portland, Oregon has a diploma program that would be perfect for you. You may consider a "homeschooling," online, or college-style program as it would afford you more flexibility to be with baby more, and give you more time in between classes. If you continue with your regular school schedule, that will be several hours a day you can't nurse or pump.

Avatar f tn As the presidential campaign unfolds, the differences in approaches to Medicare by President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney have taken center stage. But what is getting far less scrutiny: Romney's plans for Medicaid. He would convert the health care program for the poor, disabled and elderly into a block grant to the states and sharply reduce funding over time.
Avatar n tn Fold forward over your straight legs to stretch your hamstrings. Maintain each stretch for 20 to 30 seconds. Perform your flexibility exercises every day.
Avatar f tn Last Thursday, the Department of Health and Human Services announced that it would grant states waivers from work requirements under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program, in order to let them “test alternative and innovative strategies, policies, and procedures that are designed to improve employment outcomes for needy families.” The move rankled conservative intellectuals, who questioned its legality and lamented that it leaves the law toothless.
