I believe I have plantar warts on the bottom of my left foot. I haven't been to public places like gyms or pools, haven't shared socks or shoes, and live alone. I wear the same pair of shoes and socks for several days in a row, which sometimes smell. Could bacteria be the cause of the warts, or how else could I have gotten them?

Can you have implantation bleeding for 7 days? I am experiencing bleeding and am getting positive pregnancy tests. I am not using any contraceptives, the bleeding has been stable but like a light period, not just spotting. I am only on Lexapro and I'm 29. I recently had a miscarriage last month. Has anyone ever had a successful pregnancy with more than 5 days of implantation bleeding?

I've had a persistent skin rash for 7 months, affecting mainly the neck, trunk, and scalp. The rash is raised, red, and scaly, and it gets worse with tight clothing. I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and a positive ANA and Sm/RNP. I've tried antihistamines, steroids, and Montelucast, but the rash persists. What could be causing this rash and what further steps can I take?

I am 52 years old. My Pap smear results came back negative, but they want me to go back due to areas of suspicion. What does this mean? Is it cancer? Additionally, I had a breast mammogram last week, and now they are asking me to do an ultrasound. I have dense breasts and have never been asked to do this before. What does this mean?
