I have been experiencing brain zaps, headaches, pressure, scalp itching and burning for over a month, which started after receiving Botox. The headache is mainly at the top of my head, behind the neck, and sometimes behind my ears. I have been prescribed Norgesic, which caused nausea, and now Sirdalud is recommended. I am experiencing nausea and weakness. Could this be a tension headache, and could it last this long and cause these symptoms? Should I consider an MRI if the medication does not help?

I had a colonoscopy yesterday and now I'm experiencing shortness of breath, chest pain, and a fever. Have you received any sedation or anesthesia during the colonoscopy?

I am concerned about the risk of STDs, specifically HIV and Hepatitis C, after cutting my hand on a cardboard box in a work office setting. I made contact with dried blood. Am I at risk, and should I get tested?

I recently had Covid followed by an exacerbation of my asthma. I have a week or two in between each illness. The most recent symptoms are a stuffy nose, swollen glands, crepitus, and wheezing in my throat. I have had this before and was diagnosed with traceitis. Treated effectively with a round of antibiotics. I do not have a prescription currently. I am 62 years old with mild hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and asthma. I take Symbicort 2 puffs twice a day and Singulair daily. I got COVID on January 16th, went on Paxlovid on the 17th, and after a week felt well, then asthma started a week later. Well for about a week, then this started about 3-4 days ago. I used Alvesco when Symbicort at its max of 8 puffs a day isn't working to control my asthma and it is very effective. This is definitely localized to my throat. Crepitus and wheezing. My nose is very stuffy. I have been unwell for months, having what was probably RSV in November, Norwalk before Christmas, then COVID, asthma, and now this. Very frustrating. I have a dear friend newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, should I avoid her?

I received oral from a sex worker approximately 17 hours ago and noticed a small sore in my genital area. I'm concerned about getting an STD. Should I be worried, and would herpes sores typically show up this quickly?

I have recurring conjunctivitis with severe itching in one eye, redness, swelling, and puffiness. The symptoms went away for two days after thorough cleaning but returned. My nose on the same side is also runny. What could be causing this and what should I do?
