My husband has had a constant pain on the left side of his back for 2 weeks. The pain is localized to one spot and is not relieved by anti-inflammatory medications or muscle relaxants. He has seen a doctor who prescribed pain pills and checked his left lung, finding a white mass at the lower area. He has no coughing, fever, or other symptoms except for being very tired. What could be causing this pain and what further steps should be taken?

I’m recovering from a concussion. I went out to dinner tonight with some friends, and the server accidentally gave me an alcoholic beverage. I noticed it after taking a couple of sips. Should I be concerned?

I have been bedridden for 3 years and take dulcolax tablets every night for bowel movements, which result in loose stools and severe upper stomach pain in the center of my stomach, the size of a big grapefruit. The pain is constant, sharp, and stabbing. I also experience difficulty passing gas, despite feeling it in my rectum. I have a history of CIDP, Sjogrens, severe arthritis, 100 muscle loss, total atrophy, heart disease, a major heart attack in 2014, hereditary high cholesterol, anxiety, and depression. What could be causing this severe stomach pain after bowel movements, and what can help alleviate the pain?

I have been experiencing congestion, coughing with yellow/green phlegm, and a sore throat for over a week. My rib cage is achy due to excessive coughing. I have finished a box of cold & sinus pills with no effect. I have tested negative for COVID three times. What should I do for relief?

I took a big fall while riding my bike and believe my scratches are infected, possibly requiring antibiotics. I have been using Neosporin and Ibuprofen. Can you assist me?
