I have severe pain in my lower back that started yesterday and is constant. The pain is sharp and doesn't radiate down to my legs. I have tried taking 400 mg of ibuprofen every 4-5 hours, but it doesn't seem to help. What could be causing this pain, and what treatments can I try?

I have been experiencing diarrhea for the last 3 weeks on and off. I am diabetic and take 1000 mg of Metformin daily. My blood sugar levels have been running between 117 to 130 for the last 3 weeks. I have been using Metamucil and Amodium, which have not caused any side effects. I am a 24/7 caregiver to my husband for the last 3 years. What could be causing my diarrhea and what can I do about it?

I'm experiencing tingling legs on and off, which seems to occur after eating sugar, when stressed, or when I haven't been on my feet for a while. I'm 47 years old, not on any medications, and have been tested negative for diabetes. What could be causing this tingling, and what other symptoms should I be aware of if it's related to a more serious condition like MS?

I have a persistent issue on my penis that multiple doctors have diagnosed as dermatitis, but I'm still worried. I've been using hydrocortisone cream, but it seems to dry the area out more. There's a small white spot that I'm particularly concerned about, and it appears to be getting slightly bigger. The area is now smoother but still rough to the touch. What could this white spot be, and is there anything else I should do or consider?

I have burning in my penis that comes and goes. It started about one to two weeks ago and is located inside the middle of the penis, not the tip. I also have stomach pain and diarrhea. I had a protected sexual experience about a week ago and am worried about having AIDS due to similar symptoms. What could be causing this burning sensation and should I be concerned about AIDS?
