I shaved my vagina on the 20th of October and got a razor bump and a cut. The cut seems to have worsened, and I'm unsure if it's herpes or an ingrown hair causing the bump. There's no burning sensation when I pee, and no other bumps inside my vagina, just on the lip. What could it be, and what should I do?

I have woken up with red, weeping sores and dry, itchy sores with minor lumps on my shoulder. My husband had similar sores on his legs two days ago, and my daughter has also developed similar sores after visiting. The only change in our household is a new kitten treated for intestinal parasites. Are these sores related to the kitten, and should we seek medical attention?

I have been experiencing various symptoms including stomach soreness, Barrett's esophagus, sore mouth/throat/jaw, numbness, tingling, and weakness for the past 8 months. My vital signs and blood tests are always normal, and some doctors believe this is mostly anxiety-related. I am concerned about the reflux issue, which is worsening despite taking Omeprazole, Tums, honey, L-glutamine, DGL licorice, and zinc supplements. I also have non-acid reflux and am considering whether to visit Mayo Clinic. How much of these symptoms are likely due to anxiety, and can anxiety cause all these symptoms? Should I continue with the current medications, including Baclofen, Omeprazole, ranitidine, and sertraline, and how can I manage dry mouth symptoms?
