I have a baseball-sized area on my leg that is hot, hard, and itches. It may be bulging slightly and has a throbbing pain. I'm not sure if it's red, but a friend says it is. I've had it for over two weeks and it's starting to hurt more each day. What could this be and what should I do?

I am a 76-year-old man with a history of BPH, who has experienced blood in the urine after sex for about 3 months. I have had a PVP, Greenlight Laser treatment in 2009, and currently take Lipitor, Fosamax, and some herbal products for liver, kidney, and prostate health. My family doctor suggested the blood could be from tiny tissues inside the penis breaking during intercourse. What could be the cause of this issue, and are there any new treatments for BPH?

I have been experiencing random and sudden localized pain that can occur anywhere in my body, including my tongue. I also feel like my throat is being strangled, and my hands sometimes seize up, making it difficult to relax my fingers. This has been ongoing for five years and is becoming more frequent and affecting more areas, though I do have periods without pain. Additionally, I experience sudden fatigue, dizziness, jaw ache, lock jaw, and sinus pain. What could be causing these symptoms?

Why have I suddenly developed jumpiness in my legs after completing a gradual reduction of morphine prescribed following back surgery? Is it a late symptom of withdrawal from the morphine, or could it be due to another reason?
