My throat is swollen all the way around and bright red. if I rest for a while the pain is low and i just feel like somthing is caugth in my throat. After moving my head around or talking for a while or swollowing food or drink the swelling gets worse and the pain becomes worse. I have taken several different antibiotics for this and it had been flaring up every few weeks for several months. I have no fever, but I am short of breath, my mind is cloudy and i have pitting edema in my ankles and i am tierd. I have already had mono. I also have psoriatic arthritis and aparently asthma. I have been to two different docotrs about this and both gave me antibiotis after looking at the reddness. I feel like the readness is only a result of the hard time I have swollowing. My voice has changes as a result.

I had surgery in my stomach yesterday and my Dr. prescribed Vicodin 500mg. Well, the vicodin, 500mg, alone, isn’t reliefing my pain. Therefore, I’ve take 2 (two) tablets at a time and again no relief. A friend said that her pharmastis said she could take 1 (one) Ibuprophen with the her Vicoden 750mg. This "cocktail" has helped her often, therefore, my question is: can I take 1 (one) "Aleve ARTHRITIS" 220mg with my Vicodin, 500mg, tablet?

im almost 13 & ive been walking and running recently during PE classes. I have huge pains in my right knee. It REALLY hurts. Whenever i walk and put pressure on my right leg, there is a sense of enormous pain. Any suggestions? ):

my son has juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and i am struggling just to make ends meet and keep up with his treatment cost, is there any financial assistance i may be qualified for?

OK, Im going to give a little history first, so here it goes.
Im a 32 yr old mom. I already have a diagnosis of Ostioarthritis, and degen. disk disease. I had surgery on my left shoulder because of sudden onset of severe pain and immobility, doc. removed a lot of inflammation and a bone spur along with some of the arthritis he found in there. Didnt help. in the mean time the same sudden pain happened in my right shoulder, still living with that. Among a couple of other problems. Now, today I was standing doing the dishes and my hip began to throb inside the joint, severe pain but it feels just a little different then my shoulders and back especailly considering i have pin and needle feeling running up and down my leg. I cant get comfortable, I can sit, stand or even lay down to get any relief. I have already taken pain medication and it isnt helping…anyone with any ideas PLEASE.

my 13 year old girlfriend has polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in every joint in her body. the medications she takes aren’t really working for her. does anyone know any medicines, foods, techniques, or anything at all that can help with arthritis pain? she’s in so much pain, all the time, it breaks my heart..

please please help us.
thank you so much in advance

My mam is 51, not working but signs on. Gets working tax credit because husband works but is there anything else she might be entitled to. She has rheumatoid arthritis in both hands and one knee so there are not many jobs she can do. She used to be a cleaner but can not do this now because of the pain she gets. Any help much appreciated. U.K

does anyone have experience with this in releiving arthritis pain on a shelty? she isn’t crying from pain but she is moving very slowly with hardness in her hips. she’s 9 years old. reputable and inexpensive place to buy the medication?

What are my choices for treatment?

Or is it diagnosed through symptoms?

But we moved after that first appointment, and I have never gone back to the doc sice.

Im 125 tops, and im 5′6.
Iv always just figured I had a high metabolism, and Im real a really active guy.
But I hate doctors and dont generally go.. Ever..
