I had COVID two and a half weeks ago, and now I'm experiencing shortness of breath and chest tightness. My doctor prescribed a nebulizer with budesonide inhalation suspension, but after using it, I felt worse with severe sore throat, chest tightness, heartburn, and indigestion. I'm concerned if this is a normal reaction or if I should stop using the nebulizer until I consult my doctor again. Additionally, I'm worried about potential blood clots and if I should see a heart doctor for further evaluation.

I sometimes stop taking my meds due to issues like weight gain and side effects, feeling toxic from too much medication. How can I maintain my 100% unemployable status while periodically stopping my medication?

I had blood come out of my penis after ejaculation. I am 28 years old, not using any medications, and have Hepatitis C. This has never happened before and there was no trauma to the penis. There was pain during ejaculation but not during urination. How should I address this issue?

I have redness and inflammation around my lip line, with minor inflammation at the corners of my mouth, and slight stinging and burning. I've tried various treatments including hydrocortisone ointment, Tinactin, desonide, tacrolimus, eucrisa, and petroleum jelly lip balm, but the issue persists. My dermatologist thinks it might be lip licking or an allergy, but I don't have lip licking habits and my allergy test was negative. What could be causing this and how can it be treated?
