I really love dissecting in biology class and I really want to do it again.

It is present in his left arm and he has extremely minimal rotation of his hand and wrist. This has limited him in performing daily tasks without help and also with lifting heavy objects. He has been teased about it all his life. There was no pain present at a young age, but when he started maturing pain started increasing. I took him to see an orthopaedic surgeon when he was 15 years of age. The doctor told him lies and that my son would have to just deal with it for the rest of his life. After the incident of consulting this doctor, he was sent to physical therapy to gain strength in his left arm. He participated in this for several months until there was similar strength compared to the right arm.He would love to have the surgery done. For Christmas this year he has asked for treatment for his arm. I wish there was a doctor that would help make this happen. If anyone could help that would be a great thing.

They say that I have too much curvature in the bottom of my spine, but that I can fix it with the therapy. If I get it back to normal, can I still join the Marines when i’m older?

My mom goes to these physical therapy sessions for her arm because she says there’s a lot of pain in it. The problem is these physical therapy sessions are like 100 dollars our of our pocket each time. Shes been there like 6 times and shes got a shot, but nothing works. She uses very hot water all the time. Washing dishes, bathing, everything. She uses STEAMING hot water. Every time I touch water that hot it shocks me.
So I’m wondering if using all that hot water is causing her nerves in her arm to cause her pain?
By the way, shes just too stubborn to try not using hot water. I know, its annoying.
