I am experiencing pain on my vagina that feels like a scratch and occurred after using coconut oil as a lubricant for sex for the first time. I have a history of chlamydia in 2012 and syphilis in August 2020, which I was treated for. Could this be a herpes outbreak or just an irritant from the coconut oil?

I believe I have the intestinal flu and have been babysitting my grandchildren. Is this contagious back and forth? I've had it for a week, I'm 68 years old, female, and experiencing diarrhea and cramping but no vomiting. I'm generally healthy with painful arthritis. I'm constantly washing my hands with hot water and soap, keeping my clothes and bedding washed, and my house is mostly germ-free, but I'm frustrated that this won't go away.

For the last month, I have been experiencing severe anxiety, which includes intense nausea due to a fear of being sick. This has led to a significant loss of appetite and weight. I take escitalopram 10mg for anxiety, but I haven't tried any specific treatment for my fear of vomiting. Do you have any advice on how to deal with this issue?
