Question 1

why does my chest feel pressed down every morning!?

Accepted Answer

Could be heart: Increasing the work of your heart by running increases the amount of blood the heart needs. If you have coronary artery blockages then your heart can't get enough bloodvandvhe result is angina pain. This can feel like pressure in the chest and may include difficulty breathing, pain into the jaw or down the left arm. Pain like this that doesn't go away with rest should prompt a trip to the er.

Question 2

does novacaine come in a pressed pill form? please, need some answers?

Accepted Answer

Nope: Lidocaine is an injectable local anesthetic.

Question 3

is it normal for some people to feel slight pain when certain areas of the spine are pressed down on?

Accepted Answer

It can be: If it is bothering u see your PCP for evaluation and advise.

Question 4

what would cause a sensation of warmth on my back? it feels like i have my back pressed against a heater.

Accepted Answer

Nerve: If the sensation is only on one side an irritable/slightly inflamed superficial nerve could be causing this sensation. I assume there is no skin discoloration which rules out skin inflammation as a cause. If symptoms persist see your physician for evaluation.

Question 5

i fell from my bike. my chest portion pressed on the ground and since then i have pain in my chest. feeling the pain as i bend forward and sideways?

Accepted Answer

Trauma: Your accident has caused to have your muscles and bones hurt. Could have a broken rib. Wait about 6 weeks for natural healing. See an orthopedic doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Question 6

i have small swelling on my back for many years, secretes white foul smelling sticky substance when pressed, and gets painful then. what it could be?

Accepted Answer

Most likely: a sebaceous cyst  warm compresses and good hygiene will help keep it at bay

Question 7

have a bump in the top middle of my back that feels like a big marble & is visible, has been there for yrs, only hurts when pressed. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Not uncommon: Sounds like a sebaceous cyst. It forms when the hole that sebum comes through gets covered over yet the gland keeps making sebum. Fast forward years and you have this lump.  Sometimes they burst and they have the grossest stuff in it. I opened one up in clinic and the inside hit the ceiling. They recurr if drained so taking them off is the only absolute cute. Hot compress can help if it's sore.

Question 8

my clitoris has been feeling tingly and orgasmy like something is being pressed against it. its constant and theres no relief. it's been 5 days. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Infection?: This could be an infection such as a STD

Question 9

can a lymph node feel spongy when pressed?

Accepted Answer

Lymph node.: Lymph nodes can feel spongy, which usually suggests that they're benign.  On occasion they are rock-hard, like a little pebble, a quality which may suggest that they're more concerning medically-speaking.

Question 10

do angiomas sometimes not blanch when pressed on?

Accepted Answer

Angiomas: Angiomas are benign lesions composed of dilated tiny blood vessels(capillaries) and most turn white or blanch when pressed. However, cherry angiomas don't blanch. A dermatologist can evaluate and validate the diagnosis if you have concerns.
