Why does my son have sensations of crawly skin? He thinks it is bugs and has been crying a lot. He saw a bug yesterday and started crying, but we do not see any bites or swelling, no shortness of breath, no fever. He has been very scared of bugs before but never where he has had sensations of crawling with bugs. I do not know if it is a phobia or allergy or what.

I'm a male experiencing lower abdominal pain and bowel movements that are hard and dark. I took a laxative over the weekend, which helped a little, but the pain is worse this morning. I also experienced gas. My wife suggested I consult a medical professional, so I'm reaching out for help. What should I do to alleviate the pain and be able to go to work this evening?

I have had squeezing pain in my chest from my throat down across my shoulders and sometimes in my back. I just had an angiogram and my heart is in very good condition, so it's not that. I have a large hernia with 50% of my stomach above the diaphragm. I have had terrible stress for the last year and a half. What do you think the pain could be from?

I have a diagnosed case of mononucleosis (mono) and my worst symptom is severe throat pain from tonsil swelling. I've tried drinking tea, taking Tylenol/Advil, and sucking on lozenges, but they provide little relief. What can I do to really ease the pain in my throat?
