I had a condom break during intercourse with a prostitute, resulting in a bleeding wound on my penis. I tested for HIV a week after the exposure and the result was negative. However, I've heard that I need to wait at least 4 weeks after exposure for an accurate test. I'm concerned about the possibility of HIV infection due to this incident.

I have recently been put on trintellix and I'm going to have surgery next week. Is tramadol okay and should I take it the day of anesthesia? Additionally, how do I taper off trintellix if I've been on 10mg for two months and my surgery is next Wednesday?

I am a 20-year-old female with a swollen clitoris, white discharge, and soreness in the genital area. I have never had a pap test or pelvic exam and am sexually active with condom use. What could be causing these symptoms and what treatments can I try?

What could be causing a thumping sound in my head that I hear several times a day and is becoming more frequent, despite being diagnosed with Alzheimer's and taking medication for it?

I have been experiencing high blood pressure readings, with the highest being 171/118, and symptoms such as headaches and blurred vision. I have a history of high blood pressure, including preeclampsia during pregnancy, and my usual blood pressure is around 148/92. I am concerned about these high readings and whether I should seek immediate medical attention.

I have been experiencing abnormal bleeding for the last 4-5 months, along with symptoms like excess body hair, food sensitivities/inflammation, and irregular cycles. My last pap test was in June 2019 and came back normal, but I have noticed discolored discharge and unusual smells lately. My periods were regular until the summer of 2020, but now I have frequent spotting and light, painless periods with a strong foul smell. I am 23 years old and have gained 15 pounds during quarantine, which has also led to a resurgence of excess body hair. What could be causing these issues and what should I do?
