I have had a headache for 5 days, which is unusual for me. I took Advil for 2 days but it didn't help. The headache is located in my forehead and feels like someone is pulling it or like I'm constantly raising my eyebrows. I also recently lost and found my glasses. I'm worried about the severity and potential causes of this headache. What could be causing it and what should I do?

I got a rapid HIV test 10 weeks after my last unprotected vaginal sex, which came back negative. I've been experiencing symptoms like strep throat, fever, night sweats, and white plaques on my tongue, which I initially thought were HIV symptoms. I'm worried and want to know if I can trust the 10-week rapid HIV test (3rd generation) result, especially since I've been sick again. I also did a 4th generation lab test, but the results are not yet available. Should I trust the 10-week test result, and if my symptoms are related to acute HIV infection, wouldn't the test have picked it up?

My daughter was in a car accident on 8/27 and is still experiencing back pain, leg pain, and headaches. We took her to the ER initially, but now I need to find a doctor who will bill the other driver's insurance company. What should I do to find a pain management doctor who can help her?

I have a cough, chest soreness, and wheezing, especially when lying down, which is preventing me from getting enough rest. The cough has lasted over 7 days. I used an inhaler from a previous bronchitis prescription, which helped me sleep. Should I see a doctor, or is there an over-the-counter remedy I could use?
