I have a small, flat freckle on my leg and noticed a tiny bit of blood on the toilet paper after wiping, which stung a little. I also have varicose veins and minor scratch marks in a reddish area. What could these issues be, and do I need further testing or follow-up?

My 4-week-old daughter, who was born 1 week early and is currently on cow & gate milk for colic and constipation, is experiencing symptoms that make me think she might be lactose intolerant. Her symptoms include projectile vomiting, belly cramps, inconsolable crying, trapped gas, constipation, missing feeds, and a red rash on her chest and cheeks. I've been using Infacol in her bottle for the past 3 days, but it doesn't seem to be helping. What should I do?

I have herpes and recently got a COVID-19 vaccine. My symptoms have worsened, particularly in my ears and hands, and I've also experienced blood in my urine. I'm on valclover medication and have had these symptoms for about 3 weeks. What should I do about the inside of my ears and my hands, and how will this affect my second vaccine shot?

A woman is refusing care and is obese with bedsores. She won't let anyone clean her leg, and her living conditions are unsanitary due to her using diapers instead of getting up or using a bedpan. What should be done to help her, considering she is of sound mind and can refuse assistance?
