I had unprotected sex with a girl on New Year's Eve, and she told me five days later that she has HSV-2. I am concerned about my chances of contracting HSV-2 and what steps I should take to protect myself and my wife. I have a small dot on my penis, but no other symptoms.

I have neck pain and am taking meloxicam 1 pill per day. My pain is slightly reduced since I started taking it but I don't know what causes this neck pain. I can hear popping noises when I turn my head a certain way. Do you know what causes neck pain? I'm 83 years old but in pretty good shape.

My ear was pierced a long time ago and about 3 months ago, the back of my ears got swollen, with one ear being more swollen than the other, feeling like a tiny ball on my ear. What could this be and what should I do?

I'm suffering from a stomach infection with H. pylori since May, and I've used antibiotics like amoxicillin, flagyl, tetracycline together with nexium, but they didn't help. I also have insomnia and stomach problems since June, and I'm using a lot of antidepressants, sleep pills, and anxiety medicines. I'm experiencing unexplained stomach and abdominal pain 24 hours a day since September. Please advise.

My recent blood work showed Albumin at 4.4 (normal) and Globulin at 1.5 (normal), but my A/G Ratio was 2.9 (high). Why is this, and what does it mean?

I have gone from a lazy colon to one that is not working at all. I have been prescribed Relistor and Movantik, but they eventually stopped working. I have been taking Magnesium Citrate for over a month, but the results are small, watery, or flakey. My colon has not worked for three months. What can be done to avoid losing my colon to surgery?
