I was in the ER yesterday for left side face pain and swelling with difficulty breathing and moving my mouth. I was given Toradol and clindamycin. Now, I am experiencing tingling in my tongue and lips, difficulty opening my mouth to brush my teeth, a metallic taste in my mouth, and shaky hands. Is this normal?

I occasionally feel discomfort at the tip of my penis, usually after urination, masturbation, or bowel movements. I've experienced this for months, including a recent episode of blood in the urine, which led to a CT scan and cystoscopy. The tests showed only mild bladder irritation. Do I likely have a chronic bladder/prostate condition, and is there anything I should be worried about?

I have a CEA marker of 11.3, could that mean colon cancer as my mom had it twice, my dad once and a brother died from it? I also have CKD with a creatine level of 134 and GFR of 37, breast cancer, severe COPD, and congestive heart failure.

What would happen with a total occlusion of a diagonal artery of the LAD? But no occlusion in the LAD itself? What is the treatment for a diagonal blockage? Do they stent or does a collateral artery form? I recently had a coronary CT angiogram and nothing showed except a calcium score of 6, a mild to minimal stenosis in diagonal 1 and a moderate 40 to 59 percent stenosis in diagonal 2. I just turned 34 so this is concerning.

I have had a nosebleed every day after soccer practice for the last four days. The nosebleeds occur for 3-7 minutes and happen both during practice and in the shower after practice. I have a sensitive nose and this has happened before when I was younger. I am 13 years old, bleed from the same side (right), and have normal blood pressure. What could be causing these nosebleeds and what should I do?
