I have a 4-month-old boy who I suspect has RSV, especially since his older brother, who contracted it from daycare, has it. My infant has started coughing, which sometimes makes him gag, and during coughing fits, he seems to struggle to breathe with a faint wheezing sound. He is fussier than usual and seems agitated when taking a bottle. How should I proceed, and should I take him to the ER?

I had protected vaginal intercourse with a commercial sex worker and had an 18-hour-old scissor cut at the base of my penis, which was not covered by the condom and was exposed to vaginal fluid. Am I at risk for HIV from this, and do I need to get tested? Would you consider a 2mm deep cut to be superficial with zero access to the blood stream?

I wanted to know if something looks like a cold sore. How long have you had the soreness? Is this stable or getting worse? How old are you? Are you currently using any medications? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

Is the fee covered by OHIP? I have a medical report that I would like the doctor to interpret. My mother died of leukemia, and I want to prevent it. What steps should I take?

I have a cut tendon in my pinky that I never got looked at, which happened about 3 years ago. It's been causing pain, and now my middle finger has been experiencing pain for the past three days. I'm 33 years old and not using any medications. I also experience tingling sensations in my pinky and middle finger, but no wrist pain, forearm pain, neck stiffness, or swelling. I use my mobile for about 2 hours a day. What could be causing this and what should I do?
