Weird Pain

UnderDOGUnderDOG Join Date: 2003-04-05 Member: 15221Members
<div class="IPBDescription">from playing ns</div> Usally when i play ns, i rest my feet on my subwoofer (under my desk), and sometimes after ive been playing for a while, if i get up to get something,(i kinda have to twist my foot back and to the side to get it out from under the desk) i will get incredible pain in the arch of my right foot.

It almost feels like the muscle in the arch of my right foot was about to pop <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

anyone know what this is, and is my subwoofer cuasing this?

    Sounds to me like a muscle cramp. Nothing serious. It just requires extensive surgery and leeches. Lots of leeches.

    Ya, that happens to me sometime, it's probably just cause your muscles are really tense and you don't notice. It's like clenching your fists, only you can't do that, cause your hands are being occupied. This probably happens the most when you're in, say, a dark hive room...with little clicking feet noises all around...

    leeches, fool. helluva leeches. at least 5 pounds worth. get the bad spirits out and all.


    edit: thanks for that great setup, guys. and thank <i>you</i>, underdog, for helping it along.

    edit2: try sitting in your computer chair indian-style. that's a pleasant change from the usual stretched-out style i know, like yours.

    Trying sitting differently, if not, you might want to take a break from sitting at the computer and see if it's isolated to just that, if not, go see a doctor.

    Hi guys, I've been playing games for the past 3 years nonstop. My wrist hurts for some wierd reason! What may be the problem!?

    Anyways, since subwoofers tend to SHAKE a lot, that might be the problem. I've heard of people getting [namethis] syndrome from holding "vibrating" controllers, so I suppose the vibration thing might go for the subwoofer too.

    I try to sit indian style on my seat, but when I'm lazy I'll get in the uhm, "compact" position.

    No, no leeches.

    Intestinal cancer.





    Cured by lampreys.







    Just kidding...



    ...about the lampreys.








    ...seriously though? Carpel Tunnel syndrome maybe. Read the warning on your keyboard.

    good god! I thought I invented that position and was the only one who used it! I get made fun of at work constantly for sitting in it! they stare at me... like a creature in the zoo... I don't complain when they throw me peanuts though. I like teh peanuts......

    *scratches pit*

    edit: also, I used to mess around on the computer and watch TV, which is far to the right of the computer, at the same time. I would stretch my body to the left and watch TV, to the right... and I would have chronic neck pain and could never figure out why. I attributed it to bad sleep patterns. It took me months to realize it was from crooking my neck 95 degrees for hours at a time...

    Since you said that it happens after you have to twist your foot wierdly, I would say that sometimes you twist your foot too far, and your muscles respond by saying "omg WTH" by means of a charlie horse (really bad cramp).

    Try putting some leeches around your achilles tendon while playing games, that should fix it. Or just don't bend your foot that way.

    Your pain is being caused by demonic spirits living in your head who are sending evil wishes to your foot and causing maelstorms of negetive energy to twist it from the inside. You must find someone that has much love for you and have them carve a hole in the back of your head and coax the evil spirits out with soothing melodies.
