In January, I developed two blood blisters, one on my right hand and one on my left middle finger. The one on my right hand popped and bled a lot, but never healed. The one on my left hand recently tore/popped on its own. I'm worried these aren't blisters and could be some form of skin cancer due to the long healing time and their appearance during the healing process. What could these be, and what should I do to ensure they heal properly?

I have a split above my rectum about 2 inches above that itches and is sometimes sore. Just happened the other day. What can I do for it and should I just use water to wash it and apply Neosporin after?

Why is my poop yellow-brown and runny? I am 88 years old, female, and have been experiencing this for several weeks, with two bowel movements a day. I take only baby aspirin and sometimes a diarrhea medication. I have quit milk and coffee. There are no other symptoms like cramps, fever, or vomiting, and it doesn't wake me up at night.

Why is my blood sugar 126 when I go to bed and 156 when I wake up? I don’t eat before taking the morning reading. My A1c is in the 6 range now, and I have higher than normal blood sugar readings, hypothyroidism, arthritis, and allergies to many medications and chemicals.

I have been feeling unwell with pale stool. An abdominal MRI showed accumulation in the gallbladder consistent with a sluggish gallbladder, and my direct bilirubin was at the upper end of normal. Could this be related to a blockage not seen by MRI? What other tests should be done, and what can be done about it?
