I stabbed myself in the side of my palm with a knife about an hour ago. The cut is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch long and has mostly stopped bleeding. I am unsure if I should go to the ER to get it checked or not. I am 30 years old, not currently using any medications, and had my last tetanus shot about 4 or 5 years ago. Should I seek medical attention for this wound?

I noticed a broken blood vessel in the inner corner of my left eye, which has extended to part of the iris and there is a white line on the outer part of my iris. I recently started using nasal sprays and noticed the redness after using it. What could be causing this and should I see an ophthalmologist?

I recently stopped taking tramadol as it wasn't helping with my pain, and now I am experiencing severe pain in my pelvis, testicles, and penis, as well as a sharp pain in my spine near an incision. I have tried using THC to manage the pain, but it hasn't helped. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

I have concerns about PCOS and the treatment options recommended by my family doctor, which currently only includes micronor (a progestin-only pill). I had a bad experience with Lo Loestrin Fe in the past and am hesitant to try another contraceptive pill. I am also experiencing weight gain and lower left abdomen pain around ovulation. I would like to know why my doctor only recommended the pill and not other treatments like Metformin or Ozempic, and if there are alternative treatments I can discuss with my doctor while I wait for referrals to an endocrinologist and gynecologist.
