Question 1

sholder pain while i am slerping?

Accepted Answer

Ligaments: Middle-age persons suffering with shoulder pain while lying on sleep surface likely incur pain generated as the shoulder girdle torques; as a result of sleep surface ground forces inciting chronic tendonosis &amp; ligament strain-pain generators. An Osteopath can diagnose for such things as tendinitis, ligament injury and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, TOS.

Question 2

can i treat swoller glanda with bactrin?

Accepted Answer

Bactrim?: I don't recommend treating yourself with an antibiotic, unless there was a good chance that this was caused by a bacterial infection. Bactrim (trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole) is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. What you do mean by the word gland? Lymph node? Tonsils?

Question 3

does dr. scholl's freeze away work for facial warts?

Accepted Answer

Not well: I do not recommend self treatment for this.  The diagnosis of verrucae should be made by your dermatologist as not everything that looks like a wart is in fact a wart.  The possibility of pigmentary alteration or scarring from self-treatment of the face is possible.

Question 4

how in the world do i clean my stroller? it's filthy!?

Accepted Answer

Carefully...: Most modern strollers have the ability to remove the fabric components and easily put them in the washing machine; refer to the instruction manual, or contact the manufacturer for additional information.  If not use a wet, soapy washcloth using whichever baby soap you utilize for your 'passenger' and just wipe it down.  Avoid home cleaning products like window cleaners, etc.

Question 5

how long do dr. scholls comfort fit orthodics last effectively?

Accepted Answer

Variable: It would differ in a skinny guy versus a heavy guy would it not? Also, the level of activity would make it variable....

Question 6

i've been having sholder pains. what are some remedies to relieve the pain?

Accepted Answer

Rest and motion: Try to figure out what activities cause the pain and try to avoid those for now.  A trial of nsaids (ibuprofen/naproxen) will help decrease inflammation.  I would encourage you to keep trying to move your shoulder to avoid a frozen shoulder which can be very painful. Ice will help with some inflammation and it has a temporary numbing effect.  A steroid injection is also a possibility in the future.

Question 7

i have had my dr. scholls custom inserts for over 2 years and they are in good condition still even though i use them daily. should i replace ?

Accepted Answer

INSERTS: Company recommends replacement every 6-12 months.

Question 8

what is a jogging stroller for my 5 year old?

Accepted Answer

Tough one.: This is a tough one! She is getting too big for the small  kid jogger.   I'm not aware of any specifically for older kids as you request.   Try a bike attachment that can go on the back of your bike.   Transition to play with your child at the playground.  You can do stair steps while she is sliding down the slide, play games. kick the soccer ball and Jump on the trampoline together.

Question 9

can a torn tindon in the sholder heal on it's on?

Accepted Answer

Tendons: Do not heal on its own if it is torn.  If it is completely torn, there is no hope for improvement without surgery. Sometimes surgery is not possible or advisable if it is too far gone.  If is is partially torn, surrounding muscles can sometimes take over its function and your symptoms might improve with physical therapy.  Consult your orthopedic surgeon for details.

Question 10

hey my thoart hurts when i swoller and i have a cough?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor to make sure that you do not have strep throat that requires antibiotic treatment.
