I may have a tear in my urethra caused by holding/pinching while urinating. Now I have slight bleeding after I urinate and discomfort while urinating. Has the bleeding been stable or getting worse? Are you currently using any medications, either for the bleeding or anything else? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I have been experiencing lightheadedness and dizziness, especially when I turn my head, for about 6 months. I also have associated neck stiffness, ringing in my ears, and occasional tingling in my face, usually at my temples. My blood pressure is normal, and I am a 37-year-old male smoker of marijuana and cigarettes. I am concerned about these symptoms and want to know what could be causing them and what I should do about it.

I have a lump on my back at the inside of my right lat. It started as a blackhead or large pimple-like mass but has grown to the size of a half dollar and is now very solid. It was never painful until I tried to treat it with hot face cloths and pressure, which caused it to become sore and the pain to spread beyond the lump itself. Should I see a dermatologist or a general doctor for this issue?

My brother had knee replacement surgery 3 weeks ago. Today he is experiencing severe, constant sharp pains from the top of his leg down to his knee. He is unable to get up and is not managing the pain with any medications. What could be causing this pain and what should be done?

I am a 30-year-old female experiencing upper back pain that started after vaping. The pain is dull, sometimes burning, and radiates to my shoulders, arms, chest, and neck. It also affects my middle spine and sometimes causes a sharp pain under my armpit. I have stopped vaping and returned to smoking cigarettes, but the pain persists. I have had heartburn and acid reflux in the past. Should I be concerned about lung cancer, or could this be related to my stomach issues or muscular pain?
