My husband is in stage D heart failure and had a blood clot in his lung last week. He was sent home with blood thinners and is now complaining of headaches and dizziness. Is this an emergency that warrants a visit to the ER, or should I just call his doctor in the morning?

I have a burning sensation in my butt after pooping, accompanied by blood. I am 24 years old, male, and experience hard stools, pain at the anal opening, and straining during bowel movements. I have had these symptoms for two days. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

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.
