I have been on 5mg of escitalopram for 6 days and experiencing bad side effects. Do I need to wean off or can I just stop taking it?

Had a clavicle surgery 3 months ago. X-rays show a small piece of bone not completely connected in the middle (triangle). Concerned about the need for revision surgery and the potential risk of the bone piece causing future issues. Is surgery necessary, and could it be the surgeon's fault?

I am concerned about my bowel movements. My symptoms include narrow stools, inability to fully empty bowels, diarrhea, constipation, and flat, bent stools with grooves. I'm 16 years old, male, overweight, have asthma, diagnosed anxiety, and have been using a hemorrhoid cream for a few days. I'm really stressing about colon cancer. What could be causing these symptoms and should I be worried about colon cancer?

Can someone help me determine if I have a UTI, kidney stones, or both, given my symptoms of moderate blood, positive nitrates, lower back, flank, and groin pain, drops of blood at the end of urination, burning sensation, and a history of passing a kidney stone?

I have been experiencing severe itching, biting, and crawling sensations on my skin, along with black dots that appear when using a lint brush. I have been treating the symptoms with permethrin and ivermectin, which initially worked but require reapplication. I also have swollen legs and ankles, which I never had before. I am currently on suboxone to mitigate opioid withdrawal symptoms, but I am concerned that it might be causing or exacerbating my skin issues. What could be causing these symptoms, and how can I address them?

I experience tingling sensations on the right side of my body, including my lips, fingers, and foot, as well as mild pain in my right hip and buttocks. I also feel internal vibrations when sleeping and have occasional numbness in my right foot. What could be causing these symptoms, and are they related to anxiety or potentially something else?
