I hit the top of my head on a car 3 months ago. Since then, I've experienced soreness and tenderness on my scalp when touched, which returns after a slight massage. My doctor prescribed gabapentin, but it didn't help and I couldn't tolerate it. There's no rash, headaches, or other issues, but the soreness persists. What could be causing this tenderness, and is it related to anxiety?

I think I have a chest infection. I have been in bed for two days with symptoms including a sore head, sore ears, sore throat, sore chest, and coughing with greenish mucus turning yellow. I am 54 years old and have been using herbal remedies like vitamin C, echinacea, lemon, and honey. I have a medical history of spots on my lungs being monitored since a right helecolectomy in 2018. What should I do until I can see a doctor next week?

I got my biopsy results from my doctor, which mention 'pancreatic heterotopia.' My doctor said everything is normal, but I'm concerned. Is this serious, and does it increase my risk of cancer?

I am a 53-year-old male in good health, except for occasional anxiety. I sometimes see red objects in my bowel movements that look like undigested food, such as onions or pepperoni. I have had two colonoscopies in the past four years, both showing small, non-cancerous polyps, and I regularly see a proctologist for hemorrhoids. I have attached a photo of a recent bowel movement with a red object. Is this normal, and should I be concerned?

I've been feeling better since starting medication, but after light cardio exercises, I experienced dizziness and a spinning sensation, similar to symptoms I've had for 10 years, which I recently discovered are due to acid reflux. What can I do to exercise without experiencing dizziness?
