I’m a 40-year-old Hispanic male, 6’ tall and weigh 308 lbs. I’m currently on atenolol 100mg and have been using an APAP for 5 days. Earlier today, I experienced mild heart palpitations and felt a lump in my chest, which subsided after a few minutes. Then, I felt mild tightness around my throat, which has since improved but is still present. I’m not in pain or discomfort, and I don’t feel dizzy. What could be causing these symptoms, and when should I be concerned about a more serious condition?

I have a broken bone in my knee that I've had for 25 years and have fallen on it multiple times this week. I'm currently taking ibuprofen, but it's not helping with the extreme pain. I need something stronger, like Vicoprofen or Oxycodone. Can the doctor help?

My husband, a relatively healthy 75-year-old, developed a red, angry, and itchy rash all over his torso, arms, and legs after receiving his second COVID shot and having a massage. He has no known allergies and no history of dermatological issues. How should we treat this rash so he can sleep?

My stomach hurts in the middle. The pain is pretty constant, dull, and achy. I feel nauseated and had a hip replacement surgery a week ago, where I stopped pain meds. I had my appendix removed. What could be causing the pain and what should I do?

I swallowed a piece of chicken around 4 pm and it got stuck in my throat. I have been unable to swallow since then, can't keep down even sips of liquids, and have been drooling and regurgitating. My breathing is not compromised but I can't take meds. Do I need to go to the ER?
