Hi I gave birth 8 months ago and I have since had pain during intercourse. The pain is felt deep inside not where I would have any scar tissue and I also get a tightening/cramping sensation that is painful on occasion in and around the vagina after sex.
I had a first degree tear with no stitches required and I am a first time mum with no complications during birth and a normal vaginal delivery.
I am in a long term relationship and we are both clear of any STIs.
Hi there, just over a year ago i had a disc removed ( L2), I’m fully aware of any side affects which have been slightly improved with physio, pilates and general fitness regime, however, the pain in my lower back – central and left to right has never improved,. I’ve bee back to the GP and had another ultra scan on the initial operation point but nothing found ?? no attempt was made to scan the other areas in pain. I’m not on any type of medication although i do have lots left over, morphiene, co-hydracodiene, napraxin etc. I’m in constant pain and would really appreciate your thoughts on why I’m still suffering with pain !!
Last year I had unprotected sex and a few weeks later my testicles became sore. I went to the doctor and told my girlfriend and we both got put on anti biotics (they said it was probably chlamydia) The urgent care center lost my urine sample so I never got a confirmation on what i had. They gave me doxycylcine and the symptoms went away… for about 8 weeks. The urge to urinate frequently never really went away.
Then I began feeling a burning sensation in my bladder like a pocket of something stinging was in there. I went to another doctor they gave me a white blood cell test told me i didnt have an infection and sent me on my way.
months progress – THe burning sensation in my bladder comes back off and on – now with minor itching of my urethera and minor stinging. No discharge (ever)
Convinced I have something I go back to another doctor and they give me the same white blood cell test – they conclude I do not have an infection and send me on my way.
Now one year later I still have the same symptoms – slight burning in bladder (on and off) stinging when I pee (on and off) and the frequent urge to urinate. Except now, my kidneys have started to throb and sting. (left side then right side, sometimes my bad but the pain isnt consistant)
SO, i went to another doctor requested a full std test and urine test.
Neg to chlamydia, gonnorea, vaginosis, and even Myco Plasma Gennitallium.
The doctor looked at my kidneys from an ultra sound and said they look normal.
My doctor calls me and says there is nothing wrong with me. Fine.
WHY does my bladder feel full when it isnt, I have itching in my urethra and sometimes stinging when I pee, burning sensation in my bladder, and my kidneys still hurt on and off during the week. I now also get head aches constantly and some minor nausia (this never happened)
Could all of these doctors be missing something? Could I have a fungal infection? I promise I am not crazy and the symptoms I am feeling are real but no one is taking me seriously because the objective results on all of the tests.
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at the beginning of last year. A1C was 7.0. I was prescribed Metformin and Lisinopril. Since then, thru diet and exercise, I lost 20 lbs. and reduced my A1C to 5.5 and staying at those levels… without taking ANY of those drugs. My blood pressure is and always has been perfect. I’m 60 yrs. old, 5 ft. 6 in., and 175 lbs. My question is, is there any need to be taking these drugs if I am maintaining normal numbers without?
my son is 5 years and unable to express himself;i have seen an orthophonist for three months exercise but no positive result and i have seen an ENT specialist which he says the child has no problem but he can’t speak clearly but make sound.He is very active and plays alot;very intelligent in actions
3 days ago I had a 3kg bag drop onto my head from about 1 metre. Since then I have had a non stop headache, vomiting, constantly feel dizzy and this morning pasted out while vomiting for approximately 10min. I am having trouble with talking to people and can’t look up at them while talking due to light making the headache worse. I have seen my gp all he said was to basically cheer up and I will feel better straight away. I have not been able to keep down any liquid or food since it happened. When it first happened I lost consciousness. I was taken to hospital but all they did was have me stand up and move my head told me I had a concussion and let me go home. My neck has been hurting non stop and moving my head makes me feel more dizzy. I also feel like there is someone pushing on the back of my head non stop too
49 y/o female, right hand was crushed/squeezed in a dog leash. Hand was swollen and bruised with limited motion to right ring finger and hand. A few days passed with no improvement. Had X-rays Dr. Says yes 4th metacarpal is broke. Took weeks to get into orthopedic hand Dr. He views films from initial visit and says no it’s not broke. Still pain in hand. Motion is resuming.
I’m a 19 year old girl and my medical symptoms are not letting me live a normal life. Unfortunately, even though I’ve seen many doctors and took (and am taking) different medication, no one is able to tell me what’s going on and no of the medication is really working.
Everything started around 8 years ago, when I started getting something that is called Tinnitus. I can’t listeen to loud sounds of any kind, because instead of any sound all I can hear is a combination of crackles and sizzles, similar to electricity, plastic bags and sparklers. This is not my main problem right now as I got used to it, was it only marked the beginning of problems with my ears, sinuses and teeth (which as my dentist told me can all be connected).
I’ve been experiencing severe post-nasal drip for more than a year now and that’s what is bugging me the most. Everyday after waking up I have to spend 10 minutes in my bathroom to cough the yellow mucus, which I can see is appearing on my throat from sinuses. During the day as I take medication I can also have the feeling of not being able to breath because of this disease. I’m really depressed because of it and it makes my life horrible.
The last issue concerns my jaw. It has changed its’ location about 5mm to the right and now my chin is not under my nose. My face is also assymetrical, which is very visible on photos. I’ve had this issue for a year now.
I know it’s hard to tell me anybthing without seeing me in person, but every advice is so important for me as I’m very desperate and I want to be finally cured.
Ps. I’m from Poland and currently I am taking medications such as Pronasal, Clatra and Erdomed

i recently got lasik.. well i got my 3rd Surgery (enhancements) and now they claim i have -0.5 astigmatism in my right eye and +0.25 farsighted in my left. They claim that its a success.. however i feel my vision is very off balanced! I had to leave school because reading is difficult as the words are a bit fuzzy.. from far things are fuzzy to.. it comes from my right eye more. As soon as my eye are open i feel CONSTANT eye strain! I have daily headaches because of it. Its been 4 months since my last surgery.. when I finally went to see my surgeon about this she said “you have dry eyes.. i can see from here you have dry spots on your cornea. Thats whats causing your vision to be blurry and feel unbalanced.. and giving you a hard to time to see fine print on words in books.” Could they be right? Can dry eyes do that!? I mean my eyes dont even burn! I dont feel dry..

I caught flu 5 days ago. Most symptoms are well under control except for a bad cough and mild headache and fatigue. I am not 100% recovered yet. I have to fly tomorrow (Los Angeles to san francisco) and I am scared that my ears will hurt. I have already had my right ear drum rupture during descent in a flight once. I made a trip to a urgent clinic doctor just now and after checking my ears, he says I should be OK to fly. I am not so confident as he didn’t guarantee that my ears will be 100% OK. He just said everything looks like you will be fine. Shall I take the risk and fly tomorrow? Please advise.

When standing, blood pressure falls dramatically. I have passed out several times. Heart dr.

19, female, no medications, I was in a car accident about 5 months ago, and injured my leg. I didnt have it looked at while I was in the hospital, because I dont have insurance and assumed it would heal over time. The pain happens when i get up from sitting for a while, or bend my leg after standing for a while. The pain is in the back left of my knee, and is really sharp and spreades throughout knee and then fades after walking for a bit. Theres no swelling or anything, so I assume there are no tears and fractures. But the pain is worsening. Since I dont have insurance, is there something a doctor could definitely do?
