I have been concerned about an STD for a week. I am 20 years old, not using any medications, and have no significant medical history. Earlier this month, I noticed something that was not painful, almost went unnoticed, never changed in appearance, and disappeared in under a week. I also have dead skin when I wipe and noticed a few tiny cuts between my vagina and anus. Does this look like herpes, and what could it be?

I experienced a visual migraine with symptoms including blind spots, difficulty reading, and numbness in my left hand that spread from my thumb to my fingers. I napped and the vision issues subsided, but the numbness persisted. I am concerned about the numbness and whether it is related to the migraine. What could be causing this numbness and should I seek further medical attention?

I have been experiencing digestive issues for the past 5 months, including constant nausea, diarrhea (3-5 times a day), excessive bloating, and a sudden 20-pound weight gain without changes in diet or exercise. My mother had colon and cervical cancer at a young age, and I have also had issues with dark red to almost black blood. I have seen a doctor and am awaiting a specialist appointment, which has been delayed for 4.5 months. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do in the meantime?

I have a prescription for Stilnox as I suffer from severe insomnia. I am moving from Australia to Qatar for a job. Can I take this medication with me to Qatar, and do you know of any clinics in Doha that I can contact?
