I have a recurring dark spot on my tongue filled with blood. It is a little sore and sometimes swells up when I eat cold foods like mint chocolate chip ice cream. What could this be and how can I treat it?

I am 27 years old with a 6-year-old son. My period was about 6 weeks late, and I have been experiencing severe nausea all day long, even to the point of almost vomiting. I am currently on my period, but it is very light, and I don't even need a tampon. Could I be pregnant?

I am a 26-year-old vegetarian female with chronic lower abdominal pain on my lower right side, lower right stomach, and lower back. The pain has been ongoing for almost 3 years without a diagnosis. I have had kidney/bladder infections, kidney stones, and various tests including a laparoscopy, colonoscopy, HIDA scan, CT scans, and ultrasounds, all of which have come back normal or inconclusive. The pain is moderate to severe and constant when it occurs, but it comes and goes. I see no relation to meals or foods, but I have noticed some relief after eating. What could be causing this pain and where should I go from here?
