I have irritation and heavy swelling on my rear deltoid/shoulder, similar to a large pimple deep under the skin. This is similar to an earlier occurrence on my lower back, which was treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory cream and healed quickly. I was told these symptoms are consistent with a staph infection/bacteria, but I need clarification since the informant is not a medical professional. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further steps should I take?

I am an 82-year-old female with atrial fibrillation and kidney function at 40%. I am currently taking several medications, including temazepam 15 mg and Tylenol PM, but I am having trouble sleeping at night. I have tried trazodone 50 mg alone without success. Should I try combining trazodone 50 mg with temazepam 15 mg instead of taking Tylenol PM, and what dosage combination would be advisable?

I have an MRI report that indicates a small herniated disc, and I've been experiencing sciatica, leg pain, and arm pain. I had a L1 compression fracture four years ago. Is this a medical emergency, and should I consider physical therapy or surgery?
