A friend and I went on an amusement ride. At some point during the ride I seen her cover her ears. We thought that her ears just "Popped" (like on an airplane). After several hours, she chose to seek medical attention and went to the hospital. That’s when she was told that her eardrum had ruptured.
Is there anything that can be done to help her? She is petrified of having surgery done. I don’t blame her. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I worked for Wal-Mart. I was assaulted and battered by the store manager. She is on probation for it. The same day, I was unloading a truck in which the freight was not secured and I received a head injury that resulted in a stroke. The manager was informed prior to the accident about the condition of the truck. She took no action to secure my safety. She did not offer me any medical attention and I had to drive myself to the hospital. Wal-Mart subsequently fired me for missing time due to being ill from my work related injury. I have a voice recording of the interim manager stating that he is terminating my employment for missing time due to my illness. I have since then been denied the ability to purchase toilet paper at the same store. An associate directed me to leave the store immediately because she will not serve me.

I believe that I have been wronged by Wal-Mart and need to know what my rights are. I live in Massachusetts. Is there a lawyer out there that can help me?

I was in an almost head on collision yesterday. Yesterday, my knee and my shoulder were aching. Today, the back of my neck hurts very bad. I can’t really turn my head too much. My knee is bruised black and in pain. My upper back has suddenly started aching a little today.

I received medical attention yesterday and the doctor prescribed a medicine for me along wtih painkillers and compresses. How long should this last? And is this factored in as I’ll probably have to sue the (uninsured) driver who caused the accident. What is next please? Thanks.

On July 23, 09′ on I-84E in CT I was in an accident, my car was totaled, the other driver was found at fault. My car was towed to a local shop and the police officer gave me a paper with the information to obtain an accident report. Following the accident I heard nothing from the other Ins. company I finally tracked down a phone number for them (Safeco) and started the process. I was told to get a rental and asked briefly about getting medical attention to which I received no clear answer long story short I still have not received medical attention because no one will return my calls. What should I do, my insurance company has already tried calling them with little more success? Today is August 14, 2009

i pulled muscles on my back weight lifting the other day and the morning after my testicle started to hurt not big pain more like if i had blue balls on one testicle, as the pain on my back dies out i still have a slight soreness on my testicle mostly on my right one sometimes switches to my left one however my back injury was on the left side. anyone know why what has happened or can relate please give me advice before i seek medical attention thank you.

Does this condition require immediate medical attention or can it wait until my July 23 appt. My doctor is hard to get an appointment with
Well it seems to help if I take hot showers and acetaminophen. So thanks for the answers.

A couple of years ago I was performing my duties on the job site when I slipped and fell down a flight of stairs; injuring my hip and lower back in the process. My supervisor at the time did not provide me with any physical documentation (no paperwork) as to who to contact with a claim. The entity that I was employed by has now dissolved and my claim I feel should be filed against the property owner (the employer (or leaseor) to the work environment of MY employer) for – an unsafe work environment due to neglect. I feel that this injury (to my hip) will require more medical attention if not surgery in the NEAR future. My hip is killing me! Can someone help me?

I was injured in an automobile accident when my daughter & I were out on Mother’s Day (2008). The other driver was faulted for the accident & I was the passenger in my daughter’s little Kia Spectra. We were T-boned on the passengers side & my head was slammed into the seat belt adjusting mechanism as well as my back was twisted (I later found out that I had an annular tear with few treatment options if any). I was promised by my attorney that his firm had a doctor who would see me with or without insurance & he later said that the doctor no longer accepted patients w/o insurance. My injuries were never treated (after I left the ER) but I did keep an accident journal of what the injuries caused me on a daily basis. When I asked my lawyer if he had received the updated copy of my journal, he said "YES". How could he, I never sent it?
He also made the settlement proposal without first discussing it with me, he asked for the ,000.00 Med Pay that was available on my daughter’s insurance coverage, why not the Med Pay coverage from the person at fault? My lawyer also became a doctor over night & told me that he felt that further medical attention for my injuries would not help my case due to the fact that I had a previous condition (brain tumor) and that this would more than likely be used against me. It didn’t matter that I was honest about that fact up front & it didn’t matter that the side of my head that was slammed into the seat belt adjusting mechanism, was on the same side as the surgery to remove that tumor and that since, I have not had a day where I I haven’t had to take prescription pain medicine just to try to dull the pain. The injury site was right on the plate that is in my head.
Throughout all of this, I continued to care for my terminally ill mother & she was hospitalized on the 21 of January (2009) & passed away on the 25. Believe it or not, it was during this time that my lawyer called me to let me know that the insurance company of the man at fault had submitted an offer & I was strongly advised to take it. I felt as if I didn’t accept this offer, I would be compensated at all. This, based on what my lawyer said to me.
We met today and against my better judgment, I signed papers and One of them was the ,000.00 Med Pay check made payable to me from my daughter’s insurance provider, my lawyer said that it was to go to pay the medical bills & that he would pay them. Am I out of luck just because I signed those papers? Is there anything that I can do go after the lawyer for misrepresentation or misconduct or something? He never sent me to a doctor and he lied about receiving the updated journal & he made proposals without consulting with me and he advised me (indirectly) against further medical attention and he went after my daughter’s Med Pay instead of the one who was faulted for the accident.
What can I do now? Do I continue with my accident journal? Help!
I honestly feel as though my lawyer has taken advantage of the fact that I have just lost my mother. He never once called me, I always had to call him. His call finally came the day after I lost my mother and I had called to check the progress of my claim. After he found out about my mother, I had a settlement offer in 2 days. does this sound suspicious?
My daughter just reminded me that my lawyer also failed to contact Kia due to the fact that the side impact air bags did not deploy. I did inform him of this in our initial meeting.
Maxmom56,
I can appreciate your response to my situation but can you appreciate the stress of the situation that I was in at the time in which he finally contacted me? I was the sole caregiver for my mother, responsible for 2 households, a full time college student, constantly in & out of I.C.U. with my mother while trying to survive college & life and then I had my mother pass away. I am aware of the reputations that many believe lawyers have earned and many would say that I found the "cream of the crop" in the one I ended up with, but is there nothing that one can do when they have been taken advantage of in such a disrespecting manner?

Like when Cena fractured the disc in his shoulder.

Does the other wrestler just do his finisher so he can get the match over with and get the wrestler medical attention?

And how does the other wrestler know that they’ve suffered a legitimate injury?
