So, to re-phrase what I believe I read above, you cut your foot in South Africa and the wound was washed out. You are concerned that in this process you might have been infected with HIV. If I have summarized the events you describe properly, there is no risk to you from having had your wound cleaned. We get many questions about the possibility of HIV infection thought contact with open wounds. these questions, like your betrays a lack of understanding of how HIV is transmitted.
Well, the obvious thought on this would be a pinched nerve. We have all sorts of little bones, tendons and nerves in that area and something pinching a nerve could cause what you are describing. Those nerves can also become inured. You should see a doctor to find out what is going on so this doesn't get worse.
It's normal. Our joints are loose from the hormones, so our bones move more easily.
Six months later I was still having trouble with my ankle. The exact spot is on the top of the foot with pain in between the soft spot on by the ankle bone. Follow the little toe down and you will find it. At this point it is hurting when I sleep and waking me up at night.
This past Christmas I was talking the dog out to the bathroom and I stepped off the step wrong. I almost feel because I was in so much pain.
Conus medullaris is the terminal end of the spinal cord. It occurs near lumbar vertebral levels one and 2. The nerve roots at the ends are called cauda equine. The terminal nerve root tail is the filum terminale. Conus medullaris syndrome and cauda equine syndrome are complex neurological disorders manifesting as back pain, unilateral or bilateral leg pain, paresthesias and weakness, perineum or saddle anesthesia, rectal and urinary incontinence. Hope this helps.
about 6 years ago i was a work one night and felt an excruciating pain in my foot and had no idea what it was.my foot became very swollen almost instantly and i noticed an egg shape lump on the top of the foot.since then i have been going to the doctor frequently and was even referred to a rheumatologist which i saw every month for almost two years.
I tried standing on it with pressure, rubbing it, flexing it. The pain was unberable. I was about to wake my husband to take me to the the hospital when the pain suddenly started to become milder. This happened several more times during the night. Then several nights in a row. Then it started happening to my other foot. NOW it is happening to both of my hands an part of my right arm, and has happened to the left side of my neck.
It sounds like you may have either had a serious sprain or broken some of those tiny bones that are in the foot. You definitely should see your doctor and he will probably order an X-ray. That sounds painful. I twisted mine before by missing a step, and the hospital put on a cast and this relieved the pressure on my foot and made it feel a lot better. Mine was just a sprain.
I pulled almost all of my own teeth, myself, so I could afford false teeth. On the bottom of my foot, I once had this giant callous on the pad of my foot, below the middle toe. I determined, myself, to remove it at any cost, and so I dug, and dug, and dug. It had an enormous root! going clear to the bone. It is gone for good, now. I removed an unacceptable growth from near the corner of my nose, and I lanced a huge boil from my ear lobe.
I went to urgent care got x-rayed and have a broken foot. The Dr. there refused to set the bone even though they were extremely slow that day. Seems the orthopedic drs. In town don't like them setting the bones. They want to set the bones themselves. That's ok but I'm sitting here in extreme pain for 5 days trying to get in to his office to get my bones set. I am planning on giving the dr. An ear full Monday morning, but there should be a law where this is not allowed.
My doctor informed me that I have a condition where the bones are "too good". I'm not sure if that means I have too much calcium or not but I asked if I should discontnue using calcium and she indicated that I should continue to take them. I though she said the condition was called "osteoporisis" but am not sure and I'm unable to find anything with that title.
This material may sort of be squished out from in between the two bones; this is called a herniated disc. The disc may push on surrounding structures, namely the spinal cord and/or the nerves exiting from the spinal cord. Most often, it is the nerves that are pressed on, and not the spinal cord itself.
In most people, the pain of a herniated disk resolves over 4-6 weeks. The most severe pain actually eases up within 1-2 weeks. Only a minority of people every require surgery.
Have you ever met any patient had the same problem like me? I went to my foot doctor again, and he said the arch in the bottom of my feet are not strong enough to carry all my body. That's why whenever I stand up, the bones in the bottom of my feet just collapse and some bones go to the wrong position. Also it has been too long since my feet start hurting. Then the doctor made me a thing to put around my feet to support my feet, pull up the bottom and get the bones in right position.
After removing the callus I noticed a hole in the bottom of my foot that bled (not caused by me removing the callus too deep) I had severe pain in my little toe that seemed to be attached to this hole in my foot. For years the callus would grown and there would always be a little speck of blood underneath. I still have pain in this area when ever I stand. Could this be an exposed nerve? What can I do about it?
