Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I'm 6+ weeks & I've been suffering with shoulder strain for days now!!! My own fault for refusing to put my heavy shopping bags on the floor of the train during rush hour.. Next day left shoulder was killing me and now virtually no lateral movement, doctor recommended shoulder exercises which have helped but I can barely use my left arm, wrist feels numb and tingly, left shoulder stiff..
Avatar f tn He is currently on prednisone and theophylline. For the past couple of weeks, his belly has been very distended and hard to the touch. This is making his breathing more difficult. He is slightly overweight, so I have cut down his food intake. He drinks about the same amount of water that he always did, even thought the prednisone is supposed to increase his thirst. He is releiving himself regularly. His last checkup last month the vet told me that he had a good heart.
Avatar f tn Let us know what the doctor said. My jaw also hurts along with neck and back pain and also the front of my neck is under muscle strain constantly. Just had the C4-C7 fusion and didn't help jaw pain at all. Would like to hear what your doc said. Thanks!
Avatar m tn I do know of people with low level gallbladder issues who have watched their diet for years (low fat) and have done very well, except for a few twinges. But if you're having problems with exercise and movement it's possible that you have a low-grade inflammatory reaction going on and you're feeling it because of the way the organs are packed together.
Avatar m tn I was wondering if you could actually pull or strain a throat muscle through getting choked like how you would get a dead leg when struck or pulling your hamstring running too hard.
Avatar f tn I am interested in Parkinson's research on the use of Prednisone to treat symptoms. My husband has had Parkinson's for about 10 years and recently took 5 days of 20mg. Prednisone tables twice a day for a pinched nerve. It completely removed his symptoms; he was tremor ... [More] free, clear thinking, strong voice, no walking problems, no slowness - NOTHING! It was like a miracle. He is now done with the Prednisone, and is back to where he was before.
Avatar n tn t feel like that) or muscle/tendon strain due to the migraines. I already deal with a diagnosed generalized anxiety disorder which after several health scares has become more and more health related anxiety. So my anxiety can cause all sorts of symptoms, and I've definitely been under a lot of it. My question is about the chest X-ray and wondering if the return of the pain there could warrant something more than a chest X-ray.
Avatar f tn The argument over use of oral prednisone is long-standing. The answer is yes, use of oral prednisone definitely predisposes a person to new infections, both viral and bacterial. That being said, once a given strain of flu is defeated natural antibodies prevent re-infection with that exact strain. It's like getting a vaccination. With oral prednisone the problem is risk vs. benefit. Prednisone affects different people in different ways.
Avatar f tn I did not have headaches at the time but had horrible headaches before the prednisone anytime I would bend over, cough, strain, etc. The flow study was normal and my herniation is only 4 mm, so doctors don't think surgery is an option. The headaches are returning and I'm not sure what to do. I have other symptoms as well like dizziness, vertigo, and tingling in legs and feet that all get worse the more I move.
1580703 tn?1651904887 High blood pressure, that is not controlled, for example. If you need eyeglasses, or have old eyeglasses, eye strain can lead to headaches. There are different kinds of primary headache syndromes. Headaches could be a sign of a serious condition. If prednisone is relieving your headaches, you may want to go see a neurologist.
1446980 tn?1286838538 hi selma, i am in the same position as you, foam rolling causes me neck strain. it is very hard for me to do but it does help. i mainly foam roll my back. i use tennis balls to roll my butt, legs, and neck. i find that the more i loosen my butt, back and legs the less pain in my neck. for the neck i would suggest standing up against the wall using the tennis balls. roll the area around your neck (or whatever is easiest to get to) and hopefully the muscles will at least loosen for you.
Avatar n tn the Doctor did suggest a muscle relaxer and I took for one day and was too tired and no relief...I am too @the point of might having take a Medical Retirement from the US Merchant Marines (which I don't want- I have 23years) ..any ideas, suggestions would be greatly appreciated....Oh yea- I'm in the NY/NJ area and you would think some one can gives me a definitive diagnosis...and I've been too all the major hospitals..
Avatar m tn There are almost 6 months I have muscle Strain as described below and I can not do physical activity normally and I can not strech easily that muscle. The diagnos is: 'Strain ranks 1-2 of the myotendinous confluence of m. dexter rectus, with distorcion, edema / hemorrhage intra / peritendinous at this level.No evidence of muscle indrawing / tendin or collection / hematoma at this level'. What to do to retrieve back in order to do physical activity?
Avatar n tn Doctors have tested me on this and I have passed all the strength and muscle tests. There is nothing cutting off the circulation. This pain has been going on for seven months now and only recently have the headaches overlaped. Oh and I have this annoying metallyc taste in my mouth. I did have two head traumas in June and July and had just moved to the area, so i did not have a set Dr yet. The one I had an appointment with did not encourage any treatment at the time.
Avatar n tn He ruled out urinary problems and also hernia. He suspected a muscle strain and prescribed me alleve for next 2 weeks. After this the discomfort had been intermitent for following 6 weeks. The symptoms did also change. In this period I started to feel the discomfort get into the left inner thigh. I would call these discomforts (rather than pain) pulling sensations. But I had these once in every 2 to 3 days.
Avatar f tn s an intercostal muscle strain. Hurts to move certain ways and with deep breaths... on top of all my other pregnancy pains!!! Anyone else experience any of this?
Avatar m tn Yes it's most likely to be a muscle strain of some kind and NOT appendix problems. But there's also the possibility of anxiety believe-me. The fact that you are anxious about this might indicate that you worry too much or actually have worries and concerns right now that are causing you to have what is known as a 'gut reaction'.....be comforted if that's the case...it will pass....
Avatar m tn I was wondering if one of the meds I was on could cause it? I have been off Prednisone for 7 days. The Dr put me on Zanaflex nightly and I take at bedtime (for the past 3 nights) which has not helped. Any help or thoughts is greatly appreciated. Also, I'm 36 years old and in pretty good health, also have Hashimoto disease.
Avatar n tn Pain on the back of your thighs suggest muscle strain and a red anus and testicals suggest tight pants and penis swelling after masturbation suggest an injury from the act itself.
Avatar m tn Similar pain returns again when I become extremely erect, but only when extremely erect - not just partly erect or not erect at all. The pain is internal like a muscle strain or damage and not a skin irritation in any way, which would explain why this only happens when I become very erect. This happened about 2 weeks ago and is still occuring when I become fully erect, although the pain seems less (although still there.) Is this muscle strain or damage? What should I do about this?
Avatar n tn Now is you consider it to be a strain like staining a calf muscle or something like that, then I suppose it would be very difficult to (by yourself) "strain" the eye in that manner in which actual physical harm was done.
Avatar f tn m on insulin plus pills, but my question really has to do with prednisone, 20/mg daily, which I have to take for Polymyalgia Rheumatica, an extremely painful muscle disease. Without the pred. I literally cannot walk. My sugar has been in the 300's & 400s no matter what I do - I've heard prednisone can wreak havoc with diabetes and I'd like to know if perhaps this is why my sugar level is so high? Thank you.
Avatar n tn The amount of discoloration will be a good indication of the severity of the strain. Also, for a severe strain you will be able to feel the gap in the muscle where it tore. A visit to a doctor to get a referral for physical therapy would be helpful for getting going as quickly as possible. Until then, continue RICE, massage it to work the junk out of the area, wiggle your foot in circles of all sizes and directions without causing pain. Add strengthening and stretching very cautiously.
