Why does using fastum gel make my lower left leg hurt even more? My doctor recommended it for my muscle pain, but it seems to be causing more discomfort. I'm curious to know why this is happening.

While Fastum gel is generally effective for relieving muscle pain, it might be causing irritation or heightened sensitivity in your case, especially if your skin is already inflamed. discontinue use and consult your doctor for advice on alternative treatments. They may want to reassess your condition to ensure the best approach to managing your leg pain.

View allI'm really worried about this ongoing chest pain and difficulty breathing thats been happening for 5 months, and now theres talk about a potential autoimmune disease. It seems to have been confirmed by both my GP and a Pulmonologist, and theyre suggesting seeing a rheumatologist next. The latest episode was really tough, lasted 12 days with fevers around 100.9 to 102, night sweats, and I've lost about 15 pounds. I'm just trying to understand what might be going on and what to expect moving forward. Any insights?

I recently got my blood and urine tests done for insurance purposes, and the results are a bit concerning. The report says my ESR, which I believe stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate, is high. Plus, there's some abnormal protein showing up in my urine. I'm not quite sure what all this means. Could you help me understand what's going on and what steps I should take to bring these readings back to normal?

I've been having this pain between my shoulder and elbow on my right arm when I wake up in the morning. It's been happening for the past month or two. I usually sleep on my left side, and I've had some fractured vertebrae diagnosed in my mid-upper back along with osteoporosis. Most of the time, the pain lessens after an hour or two, but today it was really bad. Could this be related to my previous back issues or osteoporosis? What should I do about this?
