Accepted Answer

Neuropathy?: Try Vit B complex and Vit E, Magnesium and potassium supplements. All available OTC. It seems you had whipple's procedure so you must be under doctor's close care. Please ask him/her who has all the other Medical information regarding your other medications and associated conditions .

Question 2

sharp like stinging pains in legs?? and deep like bone pain in spine and back i have scoliosis could this be a factor??

Accepted Answer

Possibly: What your describing could be due to nerve impingement in your spine, or narrowing of the spinal canal where the spinal cord is located.  I suspect your scoliosis might be a factor, but many people have similar symptoms without scoliosis.  Best to discuss this with a back specialist.  Ask your family doctor first and see if a referral is indicated.

Question 3

what causes localized sensation of sting in my lower leg ?

Accepted Answer

Skin or Nerve: Stinging sensation is often irritant or nerve related. If you don't have skin changes consistent with allergic reaction then it is likely a nerve problem. It may be nerve impingement or simply electrolyte imbalance that is causing you to experience this pain. Continue exercising and stretching regularly in addition to eating healthy.

Question 4

am on the menopause. stage but everyday am having terrible body pain and stinging pain in my legs and arms?

Accepted Answer

Pain and neuropathy: Menopause can cause a wide variety of issues, but generalized pain and neuropathy or tingling in all your extremities suggests that more is involved. Get checked promptly.

Question 5

what could cause sharp pains that come and go in both eyes? worse with eye movement. also have stinging feeling in both legs not allergic reaction.

Accepted Answer

See eye doctor: In meanwhile, try applying artificial tear drops (preferably preservative-free) at least 4x daily and see if this helps. Terrible pain may be associated with extremely dry eyes but you need to rule out a more serious condition.

Question 6

my son was running about a week ago and he felt a stinging pain in his leg. a "bruise" developed after that with blue veins around it. im not sure if it's a normal bruise or a blood clot. he says that it feels different and sore.

Accepted Answer

Bee sting?: If there is a stinger in the area, please see your PCP for removal, apply a cold pack and watch for signs of infection such as pus, swelling and redness.

Question 7

i have a bee sting like pain in my leg. does anyone know why?

Accepted Answer

Stung by bee?: Is it possible it is a bee sting? Or other insect bite? I would imagine if you injured yourself you would of mentioned that. Try putting ice on the area and see if pain subsides.

Question 8

i awoke this am with a stinging pain in my r leg.seems to b along side of my shin.no redness,swelling or lumps. normal gait. comes and goes.i dont run?

Accepted Answer

Different possibilit: Could be a pinched nerve, such as in the back, a strain or sprain of a muscle, ligament or tendon.  If it's severe, I would get it looked at ASAP.  If not so bad, try OTC med like ibuprofen or aleve, (naproxen) or topical medications like icy hot, or just ice.

Question 9

i got hit by a swinging sign today and i have scratches on my leg the scratches are hurting how can i make the scratches stop stinging and hurting ?

Accepted Answer

Possible infection: Your description of your injury makes it seem that it may be more than a superficial scratch. You could have an infection which could spread further without proper treatment. You may also have some tissue &amp;/or bone damage. I therefore suggest a visit to an Urgent Care Center or Emergency Room for an immediate exam. The sooner you are properly evaluated &amp; treated the better. I wish you well!

Question 10

can you tell me if there is something besides ice to help my leg burn stop stinging?

Accepted Answer

Take pain med: You probably have a 2nd-degree, or partial-thickness burn. Such burns can hurt a lot until they heal. You can try simple pain meds, such as Ibuprofen or acetaminophen. If you need something stronger, you should see a physician.
