I saw a streak on my stool that wasn’t an obvious red but was a shade of brown different from the stool as a whole. The stool was between shades of brown and green. The streak was approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide and ran the length of the stool. Is it possible to have streaks that run the length of the stool and not be blood? I had a colonoscopy in May last year and 18 months before that. Should I be worried about this?

I had a tooth removed earlier today from a failed root canal. It's been 4 hours, and I'm experiencing 10/10 pain. I was given Panadine Forte, which I took with no change in pain, and then I took Endone, which also didn't help. Is it bad to take two different strong pain medications together, and can I take more Endone? Could there be an infection causing the extreme pain?

Can I take tramadol and azithromycin together while also taking prednisone, citalopram, and accutane, given that I have severe anxiety and recently had my wisdom teeth removed?

I have been experiencing irregular periods, heavy bleeding, significant pain during periods and sex, spotting between periods, and recently discovered a cyst on my right ovary. The pain has been constant and worsening over time, accompanied by cramping, changes in stool, bloating, and occasional nausea. I am anemic and have had issues with bowel movements for years. I need advice on how to manage the pain and where to get a follow-up ultrasound without insurance.

I am experiencing excessive urination and urinary urgency. I am currently on antibiotics for an ankle wound and blood pressure medications. I have been receiving antibiotics through a PICC line IV daily for the last 3.5 weeks. Two years ago, I had sepsis in the same ankle. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

I had my last period start on June 7th and end on June 12th. I had protected sex on June 14th but took a Plan B pill just in case due to white discharge specks in my vaginal hair. The condom did not break. I took the Plan B pill within the same hour. I started a light bleed on June 20th of brown and red discharge, and have been experiencing slight heavy bleeding and clots since then. My period is supposed to come on July 3rd. Is it my period coming early, withdrawal bleeding, implantation, or is there any chance of pregnancy?
