I was injured when my left breast was caught between an electric gate and a pylon, causing it to turn black and blue, and now it's bright red and somewhat sore. How long have you had the soreness? Is this stable or getting worse? How old are you? Are you currently using any medications? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know? Can I use heat or ice on my breast?

Can Flonase increase anxiety? I only took it for two days and feel way more anxiety daily. I'm also experiencing dizziness. Is it worth sticking it out for 2 weeks, the time it said to work, or should I stop due to these side effects?

I'm having horrible headaches, pain behind my eyes, sparkles and flashing lights, wavy lines, dizziness, neck pain, nausea, tingling and numbness, and my scalp is pretty tender. I'm 17 years old and have been experiencing these symptoms for about 2 weeks. This is the first time I've had problems like this, and I have no history of headache conditions. The headache comes and goes, is localized on the side of my head but started in the front, and I also have a swollen eyelid on the same side. No recent traumas, no known medical conditions, and I haven't seen a doctor about this. I'm worried and have bad anxiety about this. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I am a 60-year-old overweight female with left-sided chest pain, numbness, and tingling down my left arm. I have a history of a bulging disc in my cervical area and had a cardiac workup last year that was normal. I am currently uninsured and the pain has returned. I am concerned about confusing cardiac symptoms with musculoskeletal symptoms. Is the pain related to my heart or my musculoskeletal condition?

My mom, who is 74 years old, has a history of pancreatitis and recently experienced pain in the front pancreas area that radiated to her back after eating cheese. The pain has persisted for a week. Is this pain likely related to her cancer or pancreatitis, and what type of imaging might she undergo in the ER?

I am experiencing black specks in my vaginal discharge, which looks like pepper flakes. I am 25 years old and occasionally have sex with my boyfriend, who has been tested and is clear. The first time I had a similar issue, it was brown discharge, and my gynecologist said it was normal. What could be causing this and what should I do?
