Head injuries
I fell 2 months ago, and the neurologist fond small cracks on my brain. He went in and cleaned it up, but one side healed and the other side didn't. I am in so much pain and I have to wait until the end of December for more treatment. I just need to know what can I do for the pain until then.

Concussion to Suicidal, a scary thing!
I know depression is common with
head
injuries
. I am really struggling and having suicidal thoughts daily. I hate it. It's not ME! I am normally happy go lucky! This stuff is so hard! I have reached out to 988 a couple times and they have been so helpful.

RLS and epilepsy
She’s had no
head
injuries
but has suffered migraines since being a child. As RLS is a neurological disorder I’m wondering if there is a link?

Bit old fashioned...
I discovered that a castor oil pack really helps with knee pain. It's horrible sticky oil, but it works topically (for me at least). I have bad memories of this stuff from my childhood. Any hint of sickness and out came the bottle. I would not recommend injesting it! 🤮 it's better than the deep heat

Can anyone help?
I have purchased some Deep Heat muscle rub thinking it would help my aches and pains, but on the leaflet enclosed it states that people taking anticoagulants should not use it owing to the ingredients interacting with this medication. I take Warfarin. Does anyone know if there is a safe lubricant that

Calf Pain and PAD
Hi, I wasn't sure if this should be posted in a Diabetes forum or on here, after thinking about it I think that this BHF site is the better option. So Peripheral Arterial Disease. I had both Iliac Arteries 'bored' out with balloon angioplasty in May of this year (Left leg fully occulted and Right leg

PMR and Pfizer Covid Vaccine
Within 5 days of my husband and I receiving the first Pfizer Covid jab, he started getting pains in his legs and shoulders. He took paracetamol & used Bio Freeze, similar to deep heat. He got progressively worse, a GP diagnosed Frozen Shoulder over the phone, prescribed Co-Codamol & Naproxen. Within

Actinic Keratosis
Good morning from the US of A, Yesterday I received notification from a scalp biopsy I had done last week that the sore on the top of my head is Actinic Keratosis. In researching it I found it is due to ultra violet ray exposure and it is pre cancerous. I mentioned to the Dermatologist that I have been

Intractable head injury
I do not feel that I am unique in experiencing these symptoms, bearing in mind that regrettably hundreds of people suffer
head

through falls, road accidents and the like.

10k training run
Hi folks 🤗 just thought I'd update you on how my training is going. Today I'm up to 6k run I could pinch myself as never thought I'd get to do anything like that again!! Feeling good though wee bit knee trouble now and then. But nothing a pain killer and deep heat can sort. I'm joining a park run group

Stressing
I've been a bit quiet for a while but that doesn't mean to say I've stopped running. I've been ringing the changes with my runs and really enjoying them. Our park run was cancelled last week as part of the course was flooded but I got on the treadmill instead. I've also been going to my alternative

European Masters Championships 2023 Pescara, Italy 21/09-01/10, Intro and 100 metres
I’ve decided to split my report into sections as it covers three events and quite a few races. It’s also getting unimaginably long 😬 and I don’t like to keep folk waiting. This is the first instalment which sets the scene and covers the 100 metre event. Make yourself a nice cuppa tea and maybe even

ibuprofen gel
Currently unable to contact a pharmacist or doctor. Does anyone know of a topical pain killer gel I can take whilst on anticoagulants? Apparently, ibuprofen gel is a no-no. Thanks Thanks everyone, pharmacist confirmed I can use Deep Heat, Heat Patches and or, paracetamol.
