  • Why do my hips ache from standing, and 'pop' when I walk.?

    Pain & Pain Management - 14 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I stand for about two hours at a time and my hips just start to ache really bad, sometimes my knees too. I have decent support in my shoes. I do sometimes have a problem too when I walk, my hips almost 'pop' but not 'crack', kinda like the pop out of joint a little or something but it only starts to ache after about 15 mins of walking like that. Sometimes I can make it stop if I walk differently (stiff-like). I am only 23 and this has been happening for quite a few years, since I was 16 probably. Should I be concerned? Is there any certain vitamins or supplements I can eat more of or take to help with this? I haven't had any injuries in the past that I know of that could have caused this.

    It's a pathetic question, I know. But, seriously. I have two younger brothers who are horrible to me. They will call me fat, talk about tampons, call me ugly, and stupid to my face. It's terrible, and it's really hurting me. Honestly, it wouldn't be so bad if they didn't do it where they do it. I'll be walking to the bus, and they will put down the window and yell in front of EVERYONE, "Hurry up fatty!" Or, "Run, bitch, run!" It's embarrising. How can I stop it form hurting me so much? I have come home crying the past two days, and I'm stuck. I don't know what to do. Please help me :(

    STDs - 1 day ago

    Additional Details

    I've got HIV and Hep C from idu, infected in 2006 diagnosed 2009. My CD4 count is 450 and T8 ratio is .33 unknown VL (they've continually screwed up the tests as results are time-limited and the nearest lab that can handle it is over an hour away) I want to start treatment on HAART immediately as from every study I've read & from talking to people I know who are similarly afflicted that guidelines are about to change at a CD4 count of 500 soon. I live in a rural, conservative area, and the specialist is no different, to her if the book says 350 then treatment should be withheld until it reaches that point,. Knowing how I feel physically and from symptoms that have begun to appear I think it's best to begin right away. Do I have the right to insist on treatment regardless of what she thinks?

    yes.walking is the most efficient way for some ,like me, to lose the pounds AND the walk always makes me feel so much more energetic after,and seems to make me want to eat more fresh fruits and veggies instead of my old habit of jumping in the car and buying a KFC lunch pack. Boy,just the walking for 1/2 to 1 hour daily instead of driving or using the TTC ,combined with no more KFC (except on the odd occasion -- which i now eat without the skin on the chicken for 1 piece and leave it on for 1 piece so i don't lose the KFC flavour completely) has helped me lose over 10 pounds in this summer alone. And I didn't feel deprived of good taste at all, and didn't miss the weight I lost at all.

    During the warmer seasons, I like to jog late at night to look up at the stars or early in the morning when the beautiful sun is coming up over the mountain horizon. I also do cardio, yoga, and I just bought myself a pair of women's pink boxing gloves as I also box and practice self defence moves.

    I use 3 different types of machines to target my arms, legs, abs, and butt 1 hour a day, 5 days a week. Listening to my MP3 and having a bottle of water handy keeps me from getting bored and dehydrated/hungry. I never eat past 7:30 PM, and I control the portions of food I eat per day. I also try to eat from all food groups, and I've eliminated chips, pop, and sweets (except chocolates OCCASIONALLY) from my diet. I don't starve myself because then I won't have the energy to exercise. The most important meal is breakfast to keep you alert and strong.

    I swear by walking. I walk 1hr per day except Sunday where I go for long hikes with the dog. I eat only whole grain bread, skim milk only, whole wheat pasta, and I don't eat past 7pm. I lost 30 pounds, and toned up in just under a year and I feel great.

    Thin maybe in, but, Fat is where it's at. SAVE THE PLANET, LET THE PEOPLE GO, SAVE THE TREES, PLANTS, ANIMALS, & INSECTS !!! There is too much talk on health. Being healthy is really not a good thing for the planet. Humans should not be permitted to have the fruits, vegetables, and vitamins. These items are hazardous to the health of the planet, as they will cause a prolonged life span in the human, thus causing a healthier human to live longer, and pollute more,and use too many of the planets resources.This will have an adverse effect on trees, plants, animals, and insects. Don't eat meat of any kind, instead load up on any and all snack foods, eat cake laced with sugar.Try not to do any more exercising then moving from the couch to the fridge,try not to strain your fingers as you change channels using the remote,if you strain your fingers you won't be able to put more food into your mouth. Try to become as fat as possible, you will then be doing your part to save the planet, as you will pass on sooner, but you will be replenishing the earth. If you stay fat or even get fatter, then you won't need the following health tip below,as you won't be around long enough to reap it's benefits. There is a natural way to stay viral free, and that is to smoke about 10 cigarettes a day. The toxins from the cigarettes will coat your lungs and stay there, providing a protective coating that no drug manufacture could come up with. Then when you breath in something like swine flu, the virus gets into your lungs, then the toxins from the cigarettes that have coated your lungs will kill the virus. Now granted cigarettes will eventually kill you, but that is ok, because you will die when your in your 70's or 80's , and that will be planet friendly.
