I’m afraid I might have genital herpes. I have a reddish/white bump on the glans of my penis that’s a little touchy but doesn’t hurt much and has no discharge. I’ve been previously tested for herpes a few months ago and came up negative. What could this be and what treatment should I consider?

I have pain in my left jawline (below the ears) whenever I try to chew something or yawn, but it's fine otherwise. The pain started 2-3 days ago and is stable. What could be causing this ache, and what can I do to alleviate it?

I have a sharp pain in my upper abdominal area under my ribs that makes me feel nauseated. This has been happening for years and comes and goes. Recently, the pain has worsened, and I can feel a bulge. Is this serious, and what could be causing it?

I've been experiencing various symptoms including swelling, pain, decreased volume of ejaculation, foul-smelling urine, and tenderness in testicles. I've been on antibiotics twice and my doctor mentioned a slight rise in white blood count. I also had sores on my chest that looked like chemical burns and took over-the-counter medication for parasites. My regular doctor seems to dismiss these symptoms, and I'm unsure what to do next. What could be causing these symptoms and what tests should I consider?

I have had a sore throat and post nasal drip for 10 days with a very light occasional cough. I am a 30-year-old woman with no fever and have not seen a doctor. I also feel a slight pressure in my chest. I am getting a Covid test today.
