Doctor said that after they put neck back together and get the bones off the spinal cord, we can wait to see if any feeling comes back. Is this really a possibility? Related to motorcycle accident and brain is in good shape.

I was struck on my motorcycle by an unisured motorist that ran a stop sign, breaking a total of 9 bones, I’ve had 4 operations and I still have 1 more to go. My bills have hit over $ 300,000 the woman that hit me got less than a 00 in fines and is already driving again. I think it should be a $ 2000 dollar fine and they lose their auto to be sold at auction and drivers license for a year. The fine and money gained from the sale of their car should go into a fund to pay the victim’s. Once they are hit with a fine and loss of their car and license maybe they will think twice about getting behind the wheel and not having insurance. Because let’s face it, if you can’t afford insurance you cant afford to drive.

No swelling in my sacrum, no discoloration, bones look intact and feel intact, I am able to sleep, there’s no pain without pressure, there is pain with body weight while with each day the injury is better (three weeks have passed since injury), and the pain is on the side facing the inner tissues away from the epidermis of my lower back.

A week ago something happened to me with my back and ever since then, my right leg hurts. But, my lower back hurts in one spot. Does that mean my Siatic Nerve is pinched and I may have a slipped disc in my back? I was told that a siatic nerve means you have a slipped disc?
Please help on this.
It hurt like H*ll when my back went out on my last saturday. I could not sit or stand.
I do have arthritis and a some narrowing between two bones in my lower back region.

I suffer from sharp pain in my feet sometimes. Specially the arch and ankle. I dont have sprain or anything, nor have i pulled any muscles. But i read somewhere, if you have a chronic back pain, or herniated disc then your feet or sometimes leg can have pain. I have Xrayed my back, the bones are fine. I am going for an MRI Scan next week. How true is this theory i dont know.

For example: Men have it easier because they dont have to go through childbirth.

I notice a lot of this attitude and Id like to know why that is acceptable justification for anything for a couple of reasons:

1. Women’s bodies are adapted for childbirth. You are anatomically prepared for it, its not like men just decided we didnt want the responsibility.

2. The most painful experience in life is being born! Giving birth you have soft tissue injuries, but when you are born your bones bend and your head is crushed. So I have experienced more pain than giving birth.

3. Nobody forces you to birth a child. When you decide you want a child, you also agree to deal with everything else that comes with it.

For the stated reasons, I find it ridiculous that giving birth be justification in any intergender discussions.
I didnt suggest that it doesnt hurt. Im sure it does.

Im suggesting that it isnt a trump card the way many women like to use it.
I still have not seen one logical answer that doesnt include a fallacy.

Inordinate amounts of pain seems to be the most common response. Apparently everyone responding is aware of that at this point in time. Yet, it is overlooked at the point of conception. That is to say that nobody seems to want to aknowledge that it was something they knew about ahead of time. Whether planned or unplanned it is a risk that is assumed.

Back Pain!!!?




Since two years ago, i have had major back pains. (around my right upper back the muscle part not bones). I don’t know what it from. I have gone to the doctor and he said it’s nothing and it should get better by itself. But it hurts almost everyday!! i have gone to massages which only give temporary relief. I think it is b/c of my Bag i carry on my back, but u put it over both shoulders not just one. I feel like i have tried EVERYTHING!! i am a regular swimmer, and i do warm ups and everything!! Do u think this is serious (like lead to arthritis or something), or do you think its just b/c im young and it will get better when im older??? What should i do?

I have a herniated disc and my friend said it was because I wasnt drinking milk enough,plus we used to play basketball often in the park with my friends.He said that milk makes your bones stronger.
Can drinking a lot of milk help a herniated disc heal quicker?
