:sl: brothers and sisters,

I hope you are well.inshAllah.

Since yesterday, I have encountered the most dreadful pain ever. The pain was in my hands,wrists up to my elbow. I could not sleep the whole night.
Then, today, the pain has become so much more worse, that when I sit on the floor and try to get up. My knee caps feel really weak and produce so much pain.

My mom says it may be the childrens version of artheritis (sorry about the spelling). I think I may have a lack of iron, but my mom again thinks I have a lack of everything.

The doctors are closed on a saturday and was wondering if anyone has any idea what the pains may mean (i.e:Arthiritis etc).

My hands can no longer hold a tight grip. I can barely walk much.

oh no inshallah you'll get better sis, do you not have an emergency number for the doctors? arthiritis can be caused by many things, i hear people say you get it if you crack your knuckles so much i dont know if its true, it maybe that you have a lack of iron, see if you can have a word at the local pharmacy they might be able to give you something:mmokay:

Get better? Yes, possibly once I am 6 feet underground. The pain is too much. I don't crack my knuckles and even so, it doesn' explai the pain in my knees.
Pharmacy? They are closed in my area.

You should try to drink some diuretic tea. That could help you and its not harmful for your health. Also, keep in warm water your hands.
If do you have at home some anti rheumatichal cream would be great to use it.

I would not advise you to try alternative therapies. They are either outdated and have little effect compared to conventional medicine, or are completely fraudulant, as in 'reflexology'. Some will do more harm than good.

I think you should find some good doctors. The NHS usually has an emergency advice centre open most of the time.

Remember to make dua. If He wills, Allah can cure any illness.

Ita an herbal tea made from Equisetum Arvense - thats the latin name or Field Horsetail -the english name.That you should drink it. If you can make more tea, what remain put to your hands. Will help the pain to diminish and also, you don't have any problems with your kidney?

Oh sis I'm really sorry to hear that. May Allah give you shifa - ameen.

Is the pain in your hands worst at night? Is it accompanied by numbness/pins & needles in your fingers, pain in hand and arm? If the answer is yes, then it may be a condition called Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

The carpal tunnel is a narrow tunnel formed by the bones and other tissues of your wrist. This tunnel protects your median nerve. The median nerve gives you feeling in your thumb, and index, middle and ring fingers. But when other tissues in the carpal tunnel, such as ligaments and tendons, get swollen or inflamed, they press against the median nerve. That pressure can make part of your hand hurt or feel numb.

However there are other reasons that may be causing this pain such as arthritis.

Now a few questions about your knees? Are your knees red or swollen or both? If Yes - do you have a fever with the swollen joints? If Yes, you may have rheumatic fever, or infection of the joints or bones. I know it's the weekend hun, but you can call out and emergency doctor.

I'm going to ask a few more q's. Soweee.
If the answer to q's above was no, then did you knees become painful/tender over some period of time? If yes, this could be due to arthritis - such as osteoarthritis.

If the pain suddenly came on and there is swelling in the back of the knee, the pain maybe due to a cyst.

God forbid it is anything serious sis. But for a proper diagnosis and of course treatment you need to a doctor, especially if your symptons are accompnied by a fever.

But whatever the diagnosis darling, please please please don't worry. Once you are diagnosed then I can recommend herbal/homeopathic treatments as well as ayaahs to help your condition inshaAllah.

If the pain in ur wrists/hands is due to Carpal Tunnel, plz don't worry as it's easily cured. Whatever you do, do not agree to surgery. Only agree to surgery as a last resort. InshaAllah you won't need it. I suffered from it a few years ago and alhumdullilah I'm completely cured now.

I pray Allah grants you shifa and that it isn't anything more serious. Ameen.

But plz, plz, see a doctor as soon as possible.

wa'alaikum aslam.

Salam,

Oh brothers and sisters, may Allah reward you all for your kindness.Ameen.

No, the pain has not yet gone. Yesterday, I was in the car and my eyes,teeth,jaw and head began to hurt very very much. I began to feel drowsy but did not fall asleep.

I have the same problem today. My arms have been aching alot and it is taking its toll on my eyes. my nan told me 'yesterday', that I ought to drink milk. I have also been told that since the last time she saw me, I have become very thin and have the life of 'a bird.' It is 11:30am and I a feeling hungry yet when I look at food, I feel sick and drowsy. (I am not pregnant).

Muslimah sister, you are such a darling. My knees hurt sometimes but the pain trvales all over the body. When I aim to massage the painful area, the pain worsens.

May Allah bless you all for your help.

Ameen.

JazakAllah

Wasalam

The pain in your hands and arms sounds much like Carpel Tunnel syndrome. It is quite common among secretaries and other people that spend much time typing. It can also be arthritis, which is something I am personaly very familiar with. Both problems can usually be readily treated and provide much
relief from the pain. See a Dr. ASAP if you had not done so. The pain can be treated and without dangerous or haraam drugs.

Here in the States the American Indians would make a soup out of willow bark for pain and chew willow leaves for tooth aches. I can not hink of anything else that was used for pain.

For Carpel tunnel syndrome the most common tratment is the use of arm splints to inhibit movement for a few weeks. For athritis, it depends on what form. with some forms of arthritis a low cholesteral and fat free diet can help.

Oh sis :( Firstly I've pasted some duaas below that your mum can read over you inshaAllah. Nothing is more powerful than duaa sis. InshaAllah I am confident that Allah ta'alaa will relieve you of the pain you are suffering. Ameen.

I also looked up causes of pain that you've decribed. The pain in your head, teeth and face can be caused by a sinus headache. But without proper diagnosis and tests it's difficult to tell as some conditions have similar symptoms.
Alhumdullilah it's Monday tomorrow so you can see your GP then. And whatever happens, don't let him fob you off with pain killers. Because pain is not an illness but an indication that something is wrong. Insist on being referred to a specialist and even exaggerate if you have to.

Fibromyalgia can also cause pain in joints, ligaments and muscles. This also causes severe fatigue. But there are other conditions which can cause these symptoms too, so self-diagnosis is only useful to try to understand what is going on. What you really need is a proper diagnosis so that you can receive proper treatment.

You can still read about fibromyalgia here:http://www.fmnetnews.com/pages/basics.html

For self-diagnosis:http://familydoctor.org/x2546.xml

and - http://www.ecureme.com/emyhealth/symptoms/games.asp

Self-diagnosis is good in the sense that if your GP doesnt take you seriously then you can arm yourself with info and say well these symptoms match mine, it is possible that I may have this...

About 4-5 years ago I suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I had all the tests done but all came up negative. I researched the net for my symtpoms and kept coming up with M.E, now known as Chronic Fatigue Symdrome. I went back to seemy GP and was told that there was no test for M.E and all my tests were negative, then I should assume that I have CFS. There is no cure and the condition can go by itself. Some docs even deny it exists. Hmmm, they should've been in my shoes. Alhumdullilah I'm much much better, but I still have to take it easy. I had similar symptoms as you too. And exercise made me worse.

Lol, sorry I do go on a bit don't I? :embarrass:


General Du-a’as

For every illness, ache, fever



Dua’a 261

To relieve pain in any part of the body (if Allah wills) recite surah al fatihah 70 times (or 7 times), keeping the mouth nearest to the forehead of the sufferer. It is a sure cure of every ailment except the deadly disease (through which death has been decreed).

Bismillaahir Rah’maanir Rah’eem

[In the name of Allah. The beneficent. The merciful.]


And at the end of every du-a’a

Say:

Allaahumma S’alli A’laa Muh’ammadin wa Aali Muh’ammad

[O Allah send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad.]


When there are instructions for writing du-a’a or ayat write.

Bismillaahir Rah’maanir Rah’eem

[In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful.]

Before the text of the dua’a or ayat. You inted to use as a tawid or for drinking after washing it with pure water.




Dua’a 265

Whosoever writes surah Muhammad and keep it as a ta’wid’ on the body,. Remains safe from every kind of illness.



Dua’a 266

Whosoever recites surah Hadid and Mujadilah in every obligatory salat, Allah, if He wills, will not allow any detestable disease to afflict his/her body.



Dua’a 267

To relieve pain and suffering in any part of the body keep the written text of surah al Mujadilah on the body.



Dua’a 268

If surah al Quraysh is recited over the food, before eating, it will not only be rendered harmless but also act as a healer of any illness you are suffering from.

As I said before, I would definitely avoid alternative medicine. While it may appeal, it is either very weak compared to conventional medicine, or has no scientific merit whatsoever.

Systematic reviews conducted by the Cochrane Collaboration found insufficient evidence that homeopathy is beneficial for asthma, dementia, and induction of labor. They also found no evidence that homeopathic treatment can prevent influenza, but reported that it appears to shorten the duration of the disease. Systematic reviews conducted by other researchers found insufficient evidence that homeopathy is beneficial for osteoarthritis, migraine prophylaxis, delayed-onset muscle soreness, or symptoms of menopause.

Some techniques, such as the ones that you mentioned, are benifical, but nowhere near like as benifical as modern medicine. Modern medicine often contains the active chemicals from traditional medicines.

Other techniques, such as reflexology, rely on pseudoscientific mechanisms, like 'energy channels', and thus have no benifit.

I understand your concern bro. But from personal experience, I can assure you that homeopathic medicine is safe and effective. It also doesn't bring forth the many side effects experienced with conventional drugs.

Although some homeopathic medicine may counteract with conventional med.e.g St Johns Wart with warfarin (blood thinning drug).

Yes, most definitely. Also what I find appealing is that, homeopathic remedies are prescribed after an in-depth interview which involves lots of questions relating to one's health. So two people going to a homeopathic doctor with a normal headache will be prescribed two very different medicines depending on their state of health and other symptoms present.

Don't shy from alternative medicine. It can work in cases where sometimes conventional med fails to.

Ironically you can do some hand exercises to alleviate the pain ... most doctors just give various predinsone shots... I don't understand why you won't seek the help of a doctor? I don't think all doctors just sit on their desk ... if you are deficient in any vitamins or minerals the doctor needs to run a CBC (complete blood count) and Chem 7 or 13 to see how your
Albumin: 3.9 to 5.0 g/dl
Alkaline phosphatase: 44 to 147 IU/L
ALT (alanine transaminase): 6 to 59 IU/L

Uric acid: 4.1 to 8.8 mg/dl
blood count and minerals run compared to the base line as seen above... it might seem like a simple blood test and that she is filing her nails ... but that is how many docs determine if there is an organic cause to your ailment ... along with other methods of course ... sister, brother woodrow is right ... you need to seek the help of a professional...

SubhanAllah, I am feeling so much more better today. My legs still feel a little painful but not as much as before. Yesterday, Mommy made some really protein and energy high food and this time, I ate every last bit. I was astonished (at myself). Mom said that all the pain was probably a virus. When I woke up for Fajr (today), my hair was literally wet and my face was all greasy. Maybe, this was the virus taking its last toll. I don't have anymore sharp pains, though I did have a horrible headache. I had some tea and biscuits for breakfast and the headache has gone.Alhamdullilah.
InshAllah, when I feel hungry again, I will not run to junk food. I have cheese potato pie in the oven:) . So, from now on. I will be eating good food.
It is amazing how Allah opens ones' eyes.

Think about it...

I was so ill, pain in my arms, legs..etc.
I ate some good food yesterday and today, I am feeling well.Al hamdullilah.
So, Allahs way of saying: Eat good food.

The aim of this post is also to thank everyone else who has helped me, emotionally. Today, I am smiling and able to make everyone else smile too.:statisfie

JazakAllah.

Are they pains in the muscles of your legs, or the joints?

It sounds like a pinched nerve, perhaps in your neck. An injury that you may have brushed off? This is not a joke; but, your feet has a lot of nerves that extend to all parts of your body. So try and massage your feet, if you feel a tender spot, this is where you should rub, or have someone do the massage for you. Thats all the help I can offer. May I pray for your speedy recovery.

^agreed!

SubhanAllah, even illness has it's rewards.

Patience During Illness


There are many hadith which explain that sickness expiates evil deeds and wipes out sins. Of these, some are given below:

Abu Hurairah narrates that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "When Allah wants to be good to someone, He tries him with some hardship."

Abu Hurairah also reports that Allah's Messenger, peace be upon him, said: "For every misfortune, illness, anxiety, grief, or hurt that afflicts a Muslim -even the hurt caused by the pricking of a thorn - Allah removes some of his sins." Ibn Mas'ud said: "I visited the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, while he had a fever. I exclaimed: 'O Messenger of Allah! You have a high fever! ' He said: 'My fever is as much as two among you [might have]. ' I asked: 'Is it because you have a double reward?' He replied: 'Yes, that is right. No Muslim is afflicted with any hurt, even if it is no more than the pricking of a thorn, but Allah wipes off his sins because of it and his sins fall away from him as leaves fall from a tree'."

Abu Hurairah said: "The Prophet, peace be upon him, remarked: 'The example of a believer is like a fresh tender plant; from whichever direction the wind blows, it bends the plant. But when the wind dies down, it straightens up again. (Similarly a believer is tested by afflictions to strengthen his faith and heart, and he remains patient and firm). And an evil person is like a pine tree which remains hard and stiff until Allah breaks it whenever He wills."


Anyone suffering from an illness should remain patient, for there is no reward better or more enriching than that reserved for those who endure in patience.

Suhaib ibn Sinan narrated that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "How remarkable is the case of the believer! There is good for him in everything, but this is not the case for anyone except for the believer. When the believer receives any good, he is thankful to Allah, and gets a reward. And when some misfortune befalls him, he endures it patiently, for which he is (also) rewarded."

Anas narrates: "I heard the Prophet, peace be upon him, saying: 'Allah says: "When I afflict a servant of mine with respect to his two most beloved things (meaning his eyes), and he endures it patiently, I grant him paradise in return'."

'Ata ibn Rabah related that he heard Ibn 'Abbas say: "Shall I show you a woman of Paradise?"I said: "Yes, indeed." He said: "A black woman came to the Prophet, peace be upon him, and said: 'I suffer from epileptic fits, and because of these, (at times) my body becomes uncovered. Would you invoke Allah, the Exalted One, to cure me of this disease? ' The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: 'If you wish, you can be patient and you will attain Paradise (for this suffering). But if you prefer, I will pray to Allah, the Exalted, to cure you of it?' The woman said: 'I will be patient,' then added: 'I become uncovered (when I have fits), so invoke Allah for me that I do not become uncovered. ' So the Prophet, peace be upon him, prayed for her."

To Complain of One's Illness
It is permitted for a patient to complain of his pain and illness to a physician or a friend, provided he does not do so to express his or her anger or impatience. It was mentioned earlier that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "My fever is as severe as that of any two of you." Once 'Aisha complained to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, about her headache, lamenting: "O my head." He retorted: "Nay, rather (I should say) O my head!" Likewise it is reported that 'Abdullah ibn Al-Zubair asked his ailing mother, Asma bint Abi Bakr, "How are you feeling now?" She replied: "I am in pain."

A patient should thank and praise Allah, before talking about his distress and complaint

Ibn Mas'ud said: "If one thanks Allah before complaining about his pain or disease, then it is not considered impatience. Indeed, to refer one's complaint to Allah, is quite lawful." Jacob (the prophet), said: "I complain of my distraction and anguish only to Allah." The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, himself prayed: "O Allah! to You I complain of my weakness."

A Sick Person is Rewarded for All the Good Deeds that He Would (usually) Perform in a State of Health
Abu Musa al-Ash'ari reports that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "If a servant (of Allah) falls sick or goes on a journey, he (continues to be) rewarded for the good deeds that he used to do when he was healthy or at home."

But saying that, its amazing how much extra work you can do when your body has been fueled with food.Amazing!I always ate littel and worked alot. That was wrong!

Well, jazakAllah and thank you to all who have helped me get through the pain,emotionally and literally. Emotionally, everyone told me to be strong. I tried.Literally, I was advised to read surahs (Muslimah sis posted) and it worked.

Everynow and again, I do feel a horrble pain in my bones and I do encounter chest pains. But, I believe it will go soon.inshAllah.:)

Oh Gosh! sho sweet but I'm sorry I don't really know much about health disorders.
However a large number of disorders/diseases can cause chest pain. Sometimes it can be due to a serious illness but it could also simply be stress, hyperventilating, anemia and thyroid disease & panic attacks.

I do think anemia can safely be ruled out as there'd be other symptoms such as shortness of breath (upon exertion) and tiredness. Only tests can rule out/diagnose other causes. I don't really want to mention anything serious for causing unnecessary worry.

I will talk to Ameerahtul layl in pvt. :)

Osteoarthritis is a type of arthritis that is caused by the breakdown and eventual loss of the cartilage of one or more joints. Cartilage is a protein substance that serves as a "cushion" between the bones of the joints. Osteoarthritis is also known as degenerative arthritis. Among the over 100 different types of arthritis conditions, osteoarthritis is the most common.

Osteoarthritis occurs more frequently as we age.
Before age 45, osteoarthritis occurs more frequently in males.
After age 55 years, it occurs more frequently in females.

All races appear equally affected. A higher incidence of osteoarthritis exists in the Japanese population, while South African blacks, East Indians and Southern Chinese have lower rates.

that's all i can remember (i'm so sorry if i am a bit off details). i'll see if i could share another facts (off course i have to read first), hahahaaa...

hmm...how can exercise prevent osteoporosis? Muscle pulling on bone builds bone, so weight-bearing exercise builds denser, stronger bones. The more bone mass you build, the better off you will be during the years of gradual bone loss. Exercise can also help you maintain bone density later in life.

The best exercises for building bone are weight- or load-bearing exercises. These include weight-lifting, jogging, hiking, stair-climbing, step aerobics, dancing, racquet sports, and other activities that require your muscles to work against gravity.

helpin enough?

Weight bearing exercises and a good diet can help strengthen bones. menopausal women should eat plenty of soya as it's rich in Estrogen - the hormone that helps maintain bone density.

Smoking cigarettes decreases estrogen levels and can lead to bone loss in women before menopause. Calcium supplements plus vitamin D (to help absorb calcium) are beneficial for healthy bones. But only if there is a deficiency. For people with some types of kidney disease, too much calcium can cause problems. So best to ask doctor before taking it.
