I am 65 years old with osteoarthritis, sciatica, and a slipped disk. I am used to pain but lately, I have had trouble sleeping due to the pain, especially in my left hip and leg. I take medication for high blood pressure. Is it alright to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a few days to manage the pain?

I had 3 teeth pulled today and am taking Percocet for pain and Ibuprofen for swelling. I also have panic attacks and was prescribed Xanax for those times. I am currently having a panic attack and am unsure if it's okay to take Xanax along with the other medications I've already taken. What should I do?

I have a blister on the inside of my left lower eyelid that has been present for about 3 weeks. The outside of the eyelid is slightly swollen, and the blister bled about a week ago but has not resolved. My eyelid tends to stay in a pulled-down position when I try to view the blister. I am diabetic, but I'm not sure if that is related. What could this be and how should I treat it?

I have been experiencing body twitching, pain, and muscle spasms in my hand muscles 24/7 for over a year. I had an EMG two weeks ago which was normal, but my neurologist diagnosed me with anxiety disorder. Yesterday, while playing the trumpet, I felt weakness, severe twitching, and shooting pain. Additionally, I feel noticeable but not visible twitches in my feet and calves. What do you think based on your experience?
