I have been taking Ciprofloxacin for 7 days for diverticulitis, but had to stop due to severe side effects. The doctor recommended a 10-day course, but I'm concerned about antibiotic resistance and superbugs if I restart after a 2-day break. Should I continue the course or stop altogether?

I've been experiencing severe headaches, pressure in my left nostril, cold nose, cold feet, and tightness in the back of my neck and at the base of my skull. I had Chinese food with MSG two days ago. Could this be related to the MSG, or could it be a compressed nerve in my neck or spine? What else could be causing these symptoms?

Our company, Quality Design Nor'easter Pools, has an insurance plan with Tufts and has been informed that our entire staff has been exposed to COVID-19 through a new hire. We need guidance on setting up COVID testing for all our employees, approximately 15 in total. We are located in Amherst, NH, where COVID-19 numbers are increasing, especially due to proximity to Massachusetts. One employee is diabetic, six are seniors (ages 60-72), and one has sleep apnea. What steps should we take to ensure all employees get tested?

I am having anal itching and difficulty cleaning after bowel movements. I've had the itchiness for a long time and there is some sort of growth or excess skin in the area. I am a 37-year-old male and have not seen a physician for it. I mostly just want to make sure it isn’t cancer.
