My finace has Chondrosarcoma in his spine and he is allergic to tylenol, ibuprofen, and naproxen. Is there anything out there that he can ask his doctor for, for pain? He’s tried tramadol and it really didn’t do anything for him. The cancer is located close to his spinal cord and he says he is worried that if it is removed he will be paralyzed for life and refuses to go through that. Any help??

Arthritis ?

Hey,
So, I’ve been playing the piano for about 10 year now, I’m 15 years old. Today, I cracked my knuckles, and my friend told me I had a larger chance for getting rheumetoid arthritis? I do it a lot… so, I was wondering if it was true.
