My girlfriend hit her head around 6 hours ago. She started to feel sick 2 hours after hitting her head and 4 hours in she experienced really bad nausea. The nausea has since gotten a bit better. She has a tingling in her head, dizziness, brain fog, her vision is a bit blurry, has a slight headache, and a neck ache. It seems like a concussion. What should we do for this? Should screens be avoided? Is it okay to go for walks? Drink coffee? Should she be in the dark? If so, for how long? Thanks!

Is 95/63 hypotension? My blood pressure has been pretty low lately. I am a 39-year-old female, do not take any blood pressure lowering medicines, work out 6 days a week, eat a healthy diet, and have had headaches and dizziness for about 2 years, though all exams (EKG, echocardiogram, chest X-ray, and brain MRI) came back normal. I also have health anxiety and vitamin D deficiency.

I had a urolift procedure on Wednesday and since then, urination has been difficult. This morning, I can't urinate at all. Is this normal, and what can I do about it?

During my colonoscopy, the doctor found a polyp and removed it for biopsy, even though he said there was no cancer and scheduled the next colonoscopy in three years. Would the doctor know just by viewing the polyp that it's benign and sending it for biopsy as a precaution and confirmation?
