I have been having this acheing in my left arm and left leg but my right arm and right leg are perfectly fine this is very strange could this be peripheral neuropathy and I was also wondering could this be a symptom of HIV or could this just be a pinched nerve

I have a Sharp pain in my right shoulder blade area that I assume to be a pinched nerve. Pain ‘radiates’ around the spot and my right arm/hand is tingly/semi-numb. The pain started happening Thursday morning, it’s now Sunday afternoon an getting worse. Pain killers havent done anything… Doctors appt? Thanks!

4 months ago, I had a proximal humerus fracture on my left arm. I wore a sling for 2 months before being able to take it off. Now there is barely any muscle on it, when compared to my right arm because of the 2 months of inactivity.

What are some exercises that will help me regain muscles that I lost due to the humer fracture?

My mom says I have a pinched nerve around my right shoulder blade, it hurts like crazy to move my right arm or turn my head or move a lot at all. Everything my mom has tried hasn’t helped… It hurts! Any ideas?
@Rusty Bucket- Its 1 AM

I was rear ended and have pain in my back, spine, and half of my right arm. I am going to therapy and am taking a ton of prescriptions for my injuries. I have gotten an attorney to handle the case but am unsure about how much I should be getting for this type of injury? I did not ask my lawyer. What is the average amount of settlement to get from this type of injury?

I am pretty sure i have a pinched nerve in my left arm where my elbow is. i got this injury lifting weights in january and i felt numbness for about a week and a half. now i can only life 15 lbs with my left arm, but 35 with my right arm. what are the treatments to this? is this a pinched nerve? what should i do? i got my info from this website: http://www.ehow.com/video_6661_treat-pinched-nerve.html

was recently hit while riding my motorcycle. I live in Las Vegas, NV so everyone is sue crazy out here. Everyone tells me I should get a personal injury lawyer to get be a settlement check. The man stopped and his insurance is claiming responsibility. They have given me no problems and have been very nice. They’re sending someone to get an estimate on my bike Monday. The accident was simple. I was riding in the far right hand lane and his car merged into my lane. I slammed on my brakes but didn’t react in time and his back bumper hit my front tire. The bike laid over on it’s right side and both the bike and I went skidding across the pavement for about 50 ft. My injuries are: a twisted ankle and road rash on my right arm (light) and right knee (severe). I went to the doctor afterwards and the insurance company said to send them my medical bills so they can settle. What are the pros and cons of getting an attorney? Should I be sue happy or trust the insurance company? Please help
My bike has a lot of cosmetic damage to the right side and I’m pretty sure the front forks are bent because I have to hold the handlebars at an angle to drive straight. Also my husband says when I sit upright the back tire leans the opposite way that the handlebars have to be turned. The bike sounds horrible but that might be beacuse the exhaust pipe is dented and scratched up and is now out of tune. I’m guessing that the bike is totalled. It’s an 07 Ninja 250 and has just under 3000 miles on it. I’m pretty sure the cost of fixing it would be more than it’s worth. I’m definately not going to sign anything without legal advise but I hate people who are sue-happy and I’d hate to be a hypocrit. Good news though, if they total it out I can get a new ZZR600 or 650R like i’ve been wanting. Yes I’m stupid for wanting a bigger, faster bike after wrecking my old one but I refuse to give up riding.
Thanks for the ideas. I only missed one day of work (because I was in the doctors office) and I don’t think I have any lasting injuries. The only thing I could think of is I already have neck problems and this probably wont’s help those out much.

Im 16 and a Junior in high school. About a year ago I ran cross country and started having problems with my right shoulder. A few months later I started soccer and I turned my heads back and it popped. I couldn’t move my neck in any direction except to lay flat on my right shoulder. It was VERY painful to move it in any other direction. I also had to use a sling for my right arm because I couldn’t support it after popping my neck. A few months later my neck popped again and I had the same problems. I couldn’t even sit myself up in bed and it lasted for about a week until I had reasonable movement. After the second popping in my neck I had the same problem in my left shoulder like my right. I went to the doctor a month ago and he scheduled me for an MRI. During the time period from April to the doctor appt. in November it hurt to put my chin to my chest and when I did that I felt it in my lower back. About 2 months before the appointment I had a numb feeling from my shoulder to my elbow. A few weeks later it went into my other arm. I went to the doctor and like I said I got scheduled for an MRI. While I waited to get an MRI I got numb feelings from my elbow to my finger. I got my MRI and the results showed I had a bulging disc. He had me take therapy for my shoulders 3 days a week. I was told my neck would heal over the year. This was not good news because of soccer coming up. I kept going to soccer practices and had trouble putting my arms on my head to breathe. I lost circulation fast and had trouble breathing. Im still having these problems and my friend told me her doctor said that with bulging discs whatever your doing you need to stop because I was irritating it. I stopped socce for the past week and only have therapy 2 days a week. I took tylenol during practices and it wouldn’t help and I have to take tylenol at least 7 times a week for my back. Now im not sure what to do and my coach is telling me to play thru the pain, but it is VERY painful. Any ideas?

In 1998 I was T – Boned by another driver in another pickup truck. He hit me at approx. 50mph in a 40mph zone, I was crossing with green light at approx. 3mph. He got a ticket for running a red light. I had small pieces of glass in my right arm, and a goose egg on my forehead. But because I had seat and shoulder belt on. My back injury did not show up for at least 6 months. I went to a chiropractor and he xrayed my spine and said it was twisted in 2 places. I have problems with nerves getting pinched causing my legs to go out from under me. What I want to know is, how many years after an accident do I have to sue for injuries. At the time, I consulted with a free consultation from a lawyer, he said it wasn’t worth it because they would not be able to get at least 150,000.00. this was way before the back problem showed up. Now we have 1 – 800 – call Sam

i have burning and pain in my neck and shoulders and now going down my right arm.

I have been having severe pain in the right side of my neck for a few months now, and recently I started getting numbness and tingling in my right arm and hand. I have had headaches and lots of weakness. SO, my doctor had me get an MRI. The MRI showed a bulding disc in my cervical spine, but the nurse told me that the disc is bulging on the left side, so my symptoms have no known cause and no treatment. What does this mean? If my symptoms indicate a bulding disc, then is the fact that the pain is on the opposite side of the bisc bulge eliminate the bulging disc as the cause? I am really confused and I was hoping to finally be able to get treatment. HELP! What do I ask my doctor? What is causing my pain?
Thank you for suggesting I get a copy of my MRI for a second opinion. I made an appointment for about 20 minutes from now and I will ask for a copy of the results.

I was on a walk last Friday, swinging my hands, front to back, as I walked. About 10 minutes into my walk I felt my right arm getting heavy. I tried swinging my arms more to shake it off. After about 3-5 minutes the heaviness went away. I walked for about 30 min.
When I got home, I spent about 30 min cracking shelled peanuts with my hand.

A few hours later I felt a pain in my thumb area(palm side). The pain felt like it was starting to cramp. When I woke the next morning this thumb area was VERY sore. Cramping feeling. I could not grab anything or make a fist. I do have the start of arthritis in my hands my doctor has told me. I am 48 y/o female. My neighbor tells me it’s just arthritis but I think it’s more like a pinched nerve.

I made a doc appt for Wed., but this is killing me. I’ve done the ice pack but that only relieves it as long as I keep the ice on.
Anyone know any hand exercises I can do?
****I did see the doctor and he confirmed this is a pinched nerve. He got the same thing a few years ago and said he knew it was extremely painful. He said when most sleep at night they sleep with their wrist curved cutting off blood supply. This pinched nerve prolly happened when I was walking but deeply set in while sleeping. I am to wear a carpel tunnel wrist brace while sleeping for the next week. And take Aleeve for the inflammation. He also gave me some other pain meds for during the day. Thanks for any answers.

I have a bulging C5/6 disc was wondering what the chances are of having more lower down. My MRI and X-ray were of the cervical region only.
I have a lot of pain down my right arm wrist and elbow, left sometimes but right moreso, also alot of numbness into my fingers. Headaches, .
Sometimes i get a shooting pain down my left leg, this only happens occassionally.

I’m contemplating a spinal cord stimulator for RSD, and pain in my right arm. My doctor gave me some videos, but they’re really commercial. It doesn’t mention any of the risks. Thank You!
