Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. Recently, I have found how to calculate BMI using metric units from short tutorials.com
I have calculated my bmi rate based on my weight and height. Is this the only way to calculate BMI or do we have any other method to calculate body mass index?
I took a puck off of my right index finger and didn't really notice any immediate pain. Over the next couple days I noticed that I couldn't form a fist because my finger was very swollen and hurt to bend that far. Upon further observation I noticed that my first finger knuckle had become very wide, but the rest of my finger remained regular size. It is also very sensitive to touch.
Back in March I was holding a little girl that was standing on my lap and she lost her balance and squatted down. My hand was behind her knee and my right index finger popped and then hurt really bad for awhile. I assumed it would go away and it didn't. A few days later I went to urgent care. They took x-rays and saw nothing and told me to take ibuprofen and continue to use it like normal.
I am a 56 years old female and in relatively good health. I take one medication for hbp. Recently the middle joints of my little fingers are very tender, red and tend to be very itchy, if that makes any sense and I've also begun noticing some tiny red nodules at the first joint of my index fingers and little fingers. Some times the nodules are a little more pronouced than other times.
I am having hand weakness in both hands but the pain in my joints of my left index finger and pinky the most. The main knuckle of my index finger constantly feels pain like a sharp stabbing or too cold or hot sensation like a toothache. I have not tested positive for RA but it seems like the symptoms I have most align with that. The findings of my MRI are as follows:
There is diffuse disc desiccation and mild disk height throughout the cervical spine with relative sparing at C2-3.
I had surgery the following day and had 2 pins inserted into my index finger. I had those pins in my index finger for 4 weeks (just had them removed on 1/10/11).
I haven't been able to move that index finger for 4 weeks since the pins were still in there, as any movement in that finger caused extreme pain...but now my index finger seems to be stuck in that same position (slightly curved, as if holding a cup).
Pain from neck down right arm and constant numbness in index and middle finger (3 weeks now) and numbness sometimes spreads and when this happens the pain in arm is excrutiating. Xrays revealed loss of disc height at C5-6 and C6-7. Straightening of cervical lordosis thru this region. On left there is bony foraminal narrowing at C5-6 and C6-7 relating mostly to uncovertabral osteophytes. On right mild bony foraminal narrowing at C2-3, C3-4 and C5-6 also related to osteophytes.
My index finger has chronic pain when it is exposed to cold temps. or if my circulation is lessened in that arm. It's just that finger and only at the finger nail, cuticle area. The feeling is similar to getting it smashed into something. Also, when no pain is present, if I hit it ever so slightly on something, it might as well have been smashed in a door, the feeling would be the same!
During foreplay with my partner, I used my middle finger to stimulate my partner but am worried that with my index finger in close proximity to the vagina, a pregnancy is possible? If a finger that came into contact (actually touched vs grazed) with the wet spot on my jeans cause a pregnancy after stimulating my partner?
Arthritis?? Have skiers thumb for about a month. Woke up in morning and index finger on my dominant right hand was swollen and painful when bending. Does arthritis have flare ups or is this permanent..I have a history of psorasis and was wondering if it could be psoriatic arthritis?? Should I keep it exercise or immobilized??
