I'm having some pretty intense pain in the lower side tips of my toe joints, and it's really strange because there's no swelling at all. It seems to flare up every time I start walking after resting, especially first thing in the morning. What could be causing this? Do you have any insights or suggestions on what I should do?

This type of pain in the feet fingers and joints, especially when starting to walk after rest, could be due to a condition called plantar fasciitis. To help relieve the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) or naproxen (e.g., Aleve) to reduce inflammation and pain. Additionally, you can also try stretching exercises for the feet and calves, wearing supportive shoes with cushioned insoles, and using orthotic inserts to provide better arch support. If the pain persists, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with this constant pain in my ribs, on both sides, but it's worse on the left. It's been going on for the last couple of years, and the pain comes and goessome days it's really bad, and others it's not there at all. I'm 31, weigh 104, and I'm about 5'7". I'll admit, I don't have the healthiest lifestyle, and I used to smoke. I've done some tests like a 2D echo, a stress test, an endoscopy, and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure is a bit high, and I have thyroid issues, but all my other blood work looks good, except for some cholesterol issues. I'm just trying to figure out what might be causing this rib pain. Any ideas on what could be going on or what I should do next?
