I just had open heart surgery 7 days ago. Today, I noticed my stool has a good amount of red blood/liquid and my weight has increased by 5 lbs in 3 days. I am 57 years old and on multiple medications, including Warfarin. Should I be concerned about the bleeding and weight gain?

I have a cyst on my left shoulder that has been there since 2006. It has slowly grown in size and recently became painful, red, and swollen after an injury at work. The cyst is slightly itchy lately and I am 43 years old, taking only vitamin C. I recently started indoor tanning again. What should I do?

My son stepped on a screw about a month ago, which went through his shoe into his foot. He received a tetanus shot and it initially healed, but now it's hurting again with slight swelling and no redness. He soaked it, and the scab over the puncture site softened, but the area is still sore. Should he get an X-ray, and how can we determine if he needs antibiotics?

Hello. I just tested positive for COVID-19 with very minor symptoms. I have access to Ivermectin 4 mg tablets. Should I start taking them now? Additionally, how long should I quarantine and should I get a PCR test as a backup?
