Tendon movement: Many times the snap of a joint is merely a tendon moving over the joint.  If there is not pain associated with the crack, it is usually not a bone problem.  You should get this checked by a  podiatrist to be sure.

Question 8

my 3 year old toddler is throwing up when i try to feed him.he throw up a couple of times and it is constant.he has no symtoms of a fever.?

Accepted Answer

Vomiting in toddlers: If your son is having trouble breathing, complains of abdominal pain, is  feeling dizzy,  or he shows signs of dehydration, like sunken eyes, cool hands and feet, or sleepiness, please take him to an emergency room right away.  If he throws up after every meal and then seems ok,  try feeding him smaller amounts or  eliminating some common types of foods from his diet – he may have food allergies.

Question 9

hi. i have shoulder, neck and arm pain. this radiates down to my hands. had mri and orthopaedic surgeon says all ok. pain is constant.five years.     ?

Accepted Answer

All is NOT okay!: It's all too common for doctors to imply that nothing's wrong when we can't find the cause.  Perhaps it's a condition that doesn't show up on MRI or it's in a location that the MRI didn't cover.  Perhaps something you do regularly is causing a repetitive strain injury.  Perhaps you have carpal tunnel with referred pain up towards your neck.  In any case, you need further evaluation.  Please!

Question 10

ive got a taste in the back of my throat its really unpleasant.it has got worse and more frequent. for the past couple of days its constant.i have tried to check for tonsil stones but none. i brush my teeth really well and its immediately back?

Accepted Answer

: An "unpleasant taste" can be cused by gingivitis (gum infection).  Suggest an appointment with a dentist, and follow with an ENT physician if the situation is not resolved for guidance.
