Do either of these pictures look like there’s black blood in the stool? There’s lots of tiny black dots/specks. They’re not tarry or sticky, and they don’t smell bad. They are just mixed in with the stool. Some of them are like hard little seeds? Haven’t eaten anything black lately. Should I be worried about a bleeding stomach ulcer?

I have had genital warts on my penis for about a year. One of them recently looked bloody but had no blood coming from it. I haven't been applying the cream prescribed by the doctor because it wasn't working. I'm worried if it could be cancer. What should I do in the meantime, and is it safe to wait until my doctor's appointment on Wednesday?

My daughter has a rash on her legs and hands. Not sure if I should treat or go to the doctor. The rash started this morning, with one part being itchy. She is currently taking amoxicillin for strep throat and is 11 years old. Is the rash related to the medication, and should I take her to a doctor or treat it at home?
