My sister is 15. She’s a catcher for a competitive softball team. She hurt her knee, not bad enough for surgery but still enough where she can’t play for an extended period of time. Our dad is pushing for her to get cortisone shots in her knee so she can play. Good idea or bad idea?

I’ll try to make it short. I got into a really bad accident about two months ago — I was driving through a green light, car comes from the opposite facing lane and makes a left turn right in front of me and didn’t yield, we crashed, my airbags came out, injured my left hand and I went to the hospital.
I’m 20, I have a car, have car insurance, a license, go to school, and almost done with a major.

Turns out..he has NO license, didn’t own the car, underage, no insurance, and STOLE the car from a family family. The kid got arrested, and a ticket.The car he was in had insurance but they said since the car was not driven by the insurance holder/person, they are not liable and are not paying for anything at all. basically..screwing me over.
Is this right???? I spent 18 days in therapy for my hand getting burned, my car was totaled, my family has been under so much stress lately, MY insurance had to cover everything and now it looks so bad on my family’s insurance. I never wanted this to go that far, or screw the other person over, but come on… this is just wrong…

My brother got me a lawyer and they are planning to sue the other person’s insurance.
I’m so afraid . what’s going to happen? will I go in court? is it a bad idea that my lawyer wants to sue them? it wasn’t my choice. I just want this to be over..but I’m afraid.

I’m a 21 year old female
yesterday I was doing deadlifts and I used too heavy of weight, I jumped up by 10 lbs when I was previously using lighter dumbbells… bad idea! My lower back hurts a lot today. While it heals should I use ice or heat?

thank you

My wife and I were in an auto accident in Feb 08. It was in our 1993 Chevy truck. The other driver ran a red light and hit the driver side. As a result my head broke out the driver side window. I did not go to the ER in the ambulance we drove after the report was filed with the police. I went for neck and low back pain and wife sustained buises to her right arm and right knee. They did a Catscan that ruled I had severe whiplash and for the back pain they told me to folow up with a chiro. I recieved 2 month of treatment from them for my back. I actually stopped going because the visits started hurting. After not going for a week or so. It still hurt a getting out of bed and every now and then it would remind me. I am a police officer and light duty is not an option. Anything can happen at anytime. About a month ago I woke on a day off and I couldn’t walk without have back pain and shooting pain around my ribs, breathing hurt.I thought it was the way I slept. cont.
The pain persisted all day. I decided to sleep on another bed. All night and the next morning PAIN,PAIN,PAIN. So I went to the ER I couldn’t even made it from the car to the door. After 7 hours of getting my pain under control.|The ER doctor advised that I have a herniated disc and gave me a week off work. So in bed on my back for four days pain lets up enough to return to work. I followed up with my doctor who gave me more pain medication and sent me for x-rays. Now at work I have to get out of my patrol car periodically because my legs go numb. |I have stopped wearing my bulletproof vest because it helps a little. BAD IDEA I know but what do I do Find a new career. Still have to go back to see what x-rays showed but I am wondering what to do about the injury settlement. We already settled the vehicle part. The damages were 00 to the vehicle totalling it. Considering the truck was worth 00.
All help from claim personal would be great!!!!!!!!!
MORE INFO medical bill so far are @ 00

i still have minimal pain. can’t drive,walk or stand for length of time. they are offering 30. i’m uncertain.
i had used this lawyer before for a neck injury. he got more money for me when they offered 25. how do i go about getting another lawyer; would present lawyer still get paid along with a new lawyer? Is coming out with 20 good? I do think its unfair. Also I have appt. with a doctor in oct. its more like a 4 hour test to see what i can and cannot do. is waiting to settle a bad idea? could they offer less then I’d have to accept?
