We are having a problem finding a list of foods that someone can eat after heart surgery. What should they eat for snacks or breakfast?

Yesterday my right hand went a little numb, and this morning it traveled to my elbow. I figured it was just a migraine cause I am used to those. But this has lasted a day and a half. The numbness is mostly in the whole hand, but the index and middle fingers have the most numbness. I haven't taken any medication for it today. I haven't seen a doctor about the numbness yet, but I had a shoulder surgery last November and was thinking I might have a pinched nerve in the shoulder or something. I also have asthma and recently my father found out he has bicuspid. What could be causing the numbness and what should I do?

I have a direct inguinal hernia that I've had for 8 years. I've consulted multiple surgeons who all advised I could leave it untreated until it becomes bothersome, with a near 0% chance of strangulation. However, I can no longer push the hernia back in, though it doesn't cause pain. Should I be concerned about the hernia progressing, and is it still safe to delay surgery?

Can a gout attack raise your blood sugar, and how long does it take for the blood sugar to return to normal after the attack is over?

I wore tight socks, and now there's a hard, red, and sore area on my right leg where it was swollen. Should I be concerned about this, especially given my medical history of having several stents and being diabetic?
