I have pain in my whole lower right leg after a fall this morning. I can walk on it, but it's painful. There is no specific swelling, only a little red/blue mark on the outside of the lower leg that hit the rock. The pain is constant when holding the leg still and increases if the leg is not straight. Can you help diagnose the issue and recommend any treatment?

I am experiencing severe exhaustion, weakness, brain fog, and a lack of emotional control. My recent blood test shows my DHEA sulfate levels are significantly low at 0.3, which is concerning as I am a 27-year-old male with normal ranges for testosterone, ACTH plasma, and AM cortisol. I have been taking Ativan, amino acids, and other supplements to manage worsening symptoms. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do next?

When I breathe, it is very painful in my lower/middle back/lungs. I had a pulmonary embolism about two years ago, which was resolved, and I have not been very active for the last 6 weeks. I also had kidney cancer 7 years ago, which was successfully removed from my right kidney, and the pain is more on my left side. What could be causing this pain, and should I see a doctor?

I took an OraQuick saliva test three months after my last exposure and it came back negative. Is this result accurate, and should I trust it if I take another test and it comes back negative again?

I have constant hip pain that feels like it's in the bone or joint of the leg and hip. It has been ongoing for the last week and makes it hard to move. I take Lyrics but it doesn't seem to dull the pain. I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and degenerative disc and joint disease. How long will the pain last, and what can I do to alleviate it?

At my 17-week ultrasound, I was told I have a very low-lying placenta and would need another ultrasound at 28 weeks. What happens if my placenta hasn't moved? I know low-lying could mean placenta previa. Also, my placenta is anterior if that helps.
