I recently returned from a trip and experienced a pressure headache and dizziness, which has progressed to severe spinning sensations when standing. I have a history of a heart attack and am currently taking medications including aspirin, Norco, metoprolol, pravastatin, and atorvastatin. Should I go to urgent care or wait it out?

I have a left ear problem with fluid and irritation, possibly a sore at the outer ear. The irritation has been on and off for a few months and has been getting worse recently, affecting sleep. I am 64 years old and currently taking medications for blood pressure and aspirin, but nothing for my ear. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am experiencing stomach bloating leading to pain in my pelvis and vagina, feeling mildly constipated, and having abdominal pain during urination. I am 25 years old, currently ovulating, and had my last period from May 8-12. I took Tylenol for general discomfort and have used a hot pad and hot water to alleviate the pain. The pain worsens when I walk. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
