Why does Dr House use a cane?

I BELIEVE HE USES IT BECAUSE HE WAS SHOT BY ONE OF HIS PATIENTS AND HE GOT AN INFECTION. HE USES DRUGS BECAUSE IT RELIEVES THE PAIN FROM HIS LEG. ^^ Incorrect. He was shot, but that is another matter. He had an aneurism that clotted, and caused an infarction in his leg. This caused muscle death, && whole lotta pain, so he uses drugs to relieve the pain. He walks with a cane, because his leg still hurts despite the narcotics he takes.

Whats an acupuncture?

Accupuncture is an Asian method of healing. They use thin needles and puncture your skin at certain places. Like, if you have pain in your shoulder or leg that's where they put them. Some doctors, make the needles vibrate other doctors hold a candle near the needle to make it hot. If you have a hearing loss, they put the needles behind your ear. These needles are not like a sewing needle or the ones a regular doctor uses to give you a shot. They are extremely thin. Only the tip of the needle pierces the skin. It doesn't go in very deep. There's no pain involved. You won't even notice it, unless you're watching. A treatment takes about fifteen minutes. The best part is, it works! It takes pain away and you'll be amazed.
