For a few years now, I have had intermittent pain in my left leg, mostly in my thigh on the front and side, and sometimes an indent on my lower calf. The pain worsens when I drink alcohol or wear high heels. I am a 35-year-old female and I don’t exercise much. What could be causing this and how can I address it?

I have been experiencing vomiting and diarrhea for the past three days, which have now stopped. I am taking ondansetron for vomiting and imodium for diarrhea. I need a doctor's note for work. Should I continue taking these medications if my condition continues, and what additional steps should I take?

I have sharp pain between my shoulder blades that radiates around to my chest. The pain recurs occasionally but is not continuous. It started early this morning when I was in bed and has occurred before. The pain dissipates when I stand and wait. I'm 73 years old, retired from civil service, and work on my personal computer a few hours a day as a writer. I recently had an endoscopy procedure and was found to have a couple of ulcers. I also had a radiology test where I drank a chalky liquid and ate a pill while being watched on camera.

I've been experiencing chest pain when breathing deeply, which started after a bad cough. The pain is worse when I lay on the floor and breathe. I'm a 21-year-old male, 6 ft 5 and 300 pounds. I do not have shortness of breath or fever. What can I do to treat or get rid of the pain?

If I had liver pain from an enlarged liver or high LFTs or an enlarged spleen, would the pain be constant? Would it feel like a pulled muscle when I move a certain way? Would it be in my upper right stomach or side and back area? When I move a certain way or bend, I feel a pain in my flank area. No fever. It lasts for about 10 seconds. I also feel it after getting up in the morning. Feels tight.
