i have hip pain. it came on suddenly and at times is a burning feeling. tylenol (acetaminophen) didn't help. can't walk, get up from a chair, and hurts when inactive.

Question

What are some alternatives for hips and knees hurting? Tylenol (acetaminophen) isn't working.

Answer 1

Hip pain.: Hip pain could be from the joint itself, or from the surrounding tissues bursa, muscles and tendons. If the pain is bad enough see your doctor for physical and may be a xray. In the meantime you try an anti inflammatory medicne like advil or aleve (naproxen).

Answer 2

Too many : Nonspecific issues to give you an answer, so i would suggest you discuss each of these with your primary care doctor. They do not seem to be related to each other.

Answer 3

Stool softener: Keeping your stool soft by taking fiber and water may help. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods.

Answer 4

Neck pain: This needs to be checked to assess the severity if no significant pathology anti inflammatory meds and muscle relaxants may help as will exercise and pt.

Answer 5

Several things : First, try sleeping with one small pillow and use tyjenol or Ibuprofen or Naproxen if no contraindications. If a smoker, stop. Try heat applications and some gentle stretching in a hot shower. Avoid activities that aggravate your neck and avoid prolonged positions. If no better, get evaluated for further options based on findings.

Answer 6

Myofascial Therapy: Think flesh not bone! wellness is vital to controlling any headache or pain issue. Magnesium is also vital. It will help relax the associated muscles, decrease stress, stabilize sleep and help other meds and therapy to work efficiently. Self or profess massage, chiropractor, yoga, heat, stretching all are needed. My favorite in my practice is acupuncture and myofascial tissue release.

Answer 7

Allergy: May be allergy to gloves used ( i.E latex).See your doctor if persists. It may also be a new infection (yeast).

Answer 8
