I was walking when suddenly I felt as if a bat hit the back of my leg (calf area). I had an ultrasound and it was determined that it was negative for blood clot. The pain has lessened but the calf is still tender, slightly swollen but not discolored. My ankle area started to swell a few days later and is slightly discolored but has no pain. What could be the cause of these symptoms and what should I do for recovery?

I have LPR (Laryngopharyngeal Reflux) and occasionally spit out small spots of blood. I have health anxiety and need reassurance that this is not something sinister, like anemia or internal bleeding, and that I should not worry about it. I had a colonoscopy in March which was fine. Please help put my mind at ease.

I'm very concerned about my periods. They've been coming every second week for the last 3 months, lasting either longer or shorter than usual. Most of the blood is red, but I've been seeing a lot of black blood during my periods. I'm worried this could be a sign of cancer. What could be causing this and what should I do?

How can I manage my diet to control both Type 2 Diabetes and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) while also addressing a thrombosis hemorrhoid, given that low-carb, no-sugar diets for diabetes can exacerbate IBS, and high-fiber foods for IBS can raise blood sugar levels?

My husband is experiencing stinging pain in his stomach and lower esophagus that has not eased up for the past 6 hours. He has tried various remedies like Pepto Bismol, Rolaids, ginger ale, candied ginger, herbal tea, and induced vomiting, but nothing has helped. What could be causing this pain and what should we do?
