I have been experiencing pain in my triceps for a week now, which has been getting worse. The pain occurs when I stretch, twist my arm, or use muscles around that area. I lifted heavy boxes last week, and the pain started the morning after. I have noticed a small bruise on the inner triceps and feel numbness more often. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do to relieve it?

I had unprotected sex with my girlfriend who was on her period, and I got blood on my penis. I'm concerned about the safety of this situation and whether I need to get tested for STDs. How do I go about getting an STD check without my parents knowing, and what do the tests usually involve?

I just pooped and noticed bright red water in the toilet and a blood clot on my toilet paper. I have a history of anal fissures and hemorrhoids. Could this be related to those conditions, and what should I do?

I am a provider with an uninsured patient who is a 31-year-old female experiencing random episodes of headache, tongue numbness, double vision, and motor skill slowing. She has had normal full blood panel, CT head without contrast, EKG, and eye exam within the past two months. She is athletic, takes no medications, and has no known health issues except for these episodes, which make me concerned for MS. Her family has a history of diabetes mellitus. What tests should I order to determine if she needs an MRI and if she has MS?
