Question

I'm dealing with a neck spasm and shoulder muscle pain for the past couple of days, and there's a slight swelling near the right side of my jaw. I've already tried applying ointment and taking painkillers, but its not getting any better. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

Question

I've been dealing with a sprained ankle for about 18 days now and there's still some swelling. I saw an ortho who checked the X-rays and said there's no fracture, just a sprain. He gave me Dolanzen and Lormoto for two weeks. The pain's better, but I'm still having trouble walking and there's some swelling left. How long does it usually take to fully heal from a sprain like this? Do you think the meds I'm on are okay? What can I do to get rid of the remaining swelling?

Question

I've been noticing that when I squat, my knees start to vibrate, but everything seems normal when I'm just walking, sitting, or standing. It's a bit concerning because there's also a popping sound when I bend my knees. Is this something to worry about, or could it just be normal?

Question

I'm really concerned about this back pain I've been having around my waist area for about a year now. It hurts whenever I stand or sit in one spot for over an hour and it gets worse if I lift something heavy or bend over to do stuff for like 10 to 20 minutes. The weird thing is, it eases up when I rest or lie down. I haven't had any injuries or medical conditions that I'm aware of, so I'm not sure what's going on. Could this just be a muscle sprain, or is there something else I should be worried about?
