My husband has a sinus infection and needs an antibiotic. He has had the infection for 5 days, has used antibiotics before, and has no allergies to medicine. He has lots of phlegm and mucus, pain in the sinus, and eats. He had a fever initially but doesn't anymore and is taking lots of over-the-counter medicine. He has yellow phlegm, a raspy and dry cough, no blood, no shortness of breath, sinus congestion, no headaches, blows his nose constantly with no relief, and has pain in his sinus and ears. He did have a sore throat the first day or two but not anymore. He is not allergic to any medication and has no other medical conditions.

I had day surgery yesterday where the anesthetic doctor had difficulty finding a vein for administration. The first attempt was unsuccessful, and the arm where the attempt was made is now very tender, sore to lift, and a bit rigid. Can I expect this discomfort to pass soon, and how long should it last?

Why is my big toe shaped so weird and has a bump on it? I've had it for years and it stays the same. The bump is a little red and hard. I'm 18 and not using any medications. Is this normal?

I have an ear pain that’s affecting my jaw too. It pains a lot when I eat my food. The pain started 2 days ago and is sharp and stabbing, especially when I chew or move my mouth. I can feel a small swelling outside the ear. I'm 26 years old and have taken Tylenol for the pain. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I crack my neck often as a habit, but recently I've been experiencing severe neck and head pain along with vision issues in my left eye that worsen after cracking my neck. Could these symptoms be related?

I need a doctor's note for work. My symptoms include fever, headache, and yellow snot. The headache is a one-off, dull, and not localized to one area. I am not currently using any medications and am 21 years old. I do not have a cough, but I have a little bit of yellow phlegm, no blood, no shortness of breath, a little bit of sinus congestion, a slight headache, no sore throat, and I have not taken any COVID or flu tests.
