Diffuse pain : You have diffuse pain. Probably need to see a rheumatologist and have blood work done in addition to imaging of your spine at least.

Answer 2

Pain all over: The causes of your pains can be multiple. Those may be physical but can also be mental. A thorough history and physical examination is needed to get to the root of your problem. Us throwing guess won't be nearly as effective.

Answer 3

Multi-layer dressing: Use sterile dressing and antibiotic ointment over the exposed skin to prevent infection and promote healing. Use a second layer of dressing or gauze. In between the first and second layer apply a lubricant such as vaseline or petroleum jelly. Secure those layers with a roll gauze and tape. All of this goes under your sock and should prevent pain when walking.

Answer 4

Cover the part that : Peeled with a bandage. Elbow band-aids are great for covering large areas.

Answer 13

No: Ice and elevation. Over the counter Ibuprofen every 6-8 hours will help with the inflammation.

Ouch!: Remove stinger by scraping along edge of skin with a credit card. Clean with soap & warm water. Apply ice in 10 minute. Increments; alternating 10 on & 10 off.
