My mom has little blood in her stool and feels some pressure in the rectal area. She passed stool 3 times yesterday, with only 2 instances of blood. Her stool is thin but normal in color, and she does not have any other symptoms or illnesses. She does not have blood on the toilet paper and feels pressure on the anus after using the bathroom. She is over 50 and does not feel pain when passing stool. Should she get a colonoscopy?

I've had a clogged ear for a week now, following a cold that is almost gone. The clogging is very uncomfortable and affects my ability to speak clearly as I am a public speaker and often on TV. I've been taking Mucinex D but it hasn't helped. Should I go to the ER, and what can I do to alleviate the clogging?

I like hitting my tummy when it's full but then I'm afraid of hurting what's inside. Can I hurt my intestines badly by hitting my tummy?

Hello Doctor, I experienced pain under my belly button after masturbating and had protected vaginal intercourse 9 days ago with a CSW. I'm concerned if this pain is related to masturbation or if it could be an STD. Additionally, I'm now experiencing a sore throat, itching in my mouth, and general fatigue. How can I overcome my fear and obsession about potentially catching an STD from the sexual contact?

I have been randomly getting dizzy, especially in public spaces like stores or at work, and sometimes feel anxious. I recently quit smoking weed, which used to give me anxiety, and now I get dizzy more often. My heart rate and blood pressure are normal, and I drink a lot of Gatorade. What could be causing this dizziness and anxiety, and what can I do to relieve the anxiety without medication?
