I wake up every 2 hours with severe and painful muscle cramps in my feet and lower legs, which are now also happening during the day. My legs also get very cold. I am 68 years old, not on any medications, and had normal blood work a month ago. What could be causing these cramps and what can I do to alleviate them?

I'm seeing blood in my stool and want to know if I should see a doctor immediately. I'm 28 years old, not on any medications, and this is the first time I've experienced this. I've seen blood twice today, it colored the water and toilet paper, and I have some headache, dizziness, stomach pain, and frequent belching.

I had a bowel movement today where the stool was mixed with blood, and after standing up, blood drops fell on the floor. I don't have any abdominal pain or other symptoms. What could be the cause of this and what should I do?

I have a bad ear infection that has been ongoing for almost a month. It's causing ringing in my ear, blurred vision on one side of my face, and numbness. Can someone help?

I received my blood test results and am concerned that the CH 50 test came back high. The test was ordered by an allergist to find a treatment for asthma. I had Covid in December 2022, needed oxygen, and stayed in the hospital for a week. Since then, I've been controlling asthma with inhalers but am experiencing side effects. Could this high CH 50 result be related to my severe Covid infection?

I have been battling a sinus infection for the last month and a half, with symptoms moving from my forehead to my left cheek. I am currently on my third round of antibiotics, but they don't seem to be working. My symptoms include pressure in my sinuses, ringing in my ears, and occasional swelling in my left eye. I also experience waves of feeling fine followed by allergy flare-ups that cause sinus pressure. Is it normal for a sinus infection to last this long and move around, and what should I do next?
