I had a severe case of food poisoning from mussels and took magnesium citrate. I felt great after pooping all day yesterday. When will I get back to my regular normal stools? I'm usually very regular, but I haven't pooped today. Is this normal? I'm not in pain, but since I'm super regular, I'm starting to get worried.

I injured my ankle a week ago and was told it was a severe sprain with a flake fracture. I was told it will heal in three weeks, but I'm skeptical due to the initial pain and swelling. Is three weeks enough time for recovery, and should I be concerned about the location of the flake fracture?

I have been experiencing light-colored stools for approximately 6-8 weeks, but I am completely asymptomatic otherwise. I take medications including lovastatin, metoprolol, spironolactone/hydrochlorothiazide, and Taztia XT, and I also take various supplements. My routine labs from February were normal, except for slightly elevated cholesterol. Should I be concerned about liver or gallbladder disease? Should I speak to my doctor about changing my statin medication?

I have headaches that started 3 days ago, and over the weekend, I woke up with a swollen face, feet, and hands that lasted 3 days. I've also been experiencing lower right side pain in my lower back that is starting to spread to the left side when I walk, get up from bed, or even from a truck. It really hurts, and I'm scared and don't know what's going on. The headache is daily, and there is no nausea. I have no other medical history that the doctor should know about.

My eyelid is always a little droopy but today seems more so. Like I can feel it today. Would this be from a tumor or something? Does this look like a droopy eyelid from a tumor on my left side?
