What are some causes of sharp pain on the right side of the belly button, which has been present for about a month, moves around the lower right quadrant from the hip, pelvis, or navel, and worsens with working out and eating, but does not improve with bowel movements or passing gas? The pain started after performing stomach vacuums, and there are associated symptoms of bloating, indigestion, nausea, lack of appetite, and fatigue.

I have been experiencing rashes that started on Saturday. I took an allergy pill, and the rash went away, but I'm concerned it might come back. The rash was itchy and swollen. I'm 25 years old and had an IUD inserted on July 2nd. I'm not aware of any changes in my routine that could have caused this. What could be causing the rash, and what should I do to prevent it from coming back?

I've been experiencing off-and-on numbness in my leg and arms, sometimes just in one arm or one leg. I've had normal EMG and nerve conduction tests, and my MRI showed some loss due to being premature but otherwise normal. I'm concerned about the possibility of a serious or life-threatening condition, even though it might not be. How long should I expect the numbness to last, and should I be worried about any serious health issues?

I've had my tubes tied since 2008. Last month, I missed my period and experienced spotting for a day, followed by intermittent cramping. My periods have been irregular since I was 14, but they became more regular after my tubal ligation. I'm 33 years old, sexually active, and have mild cramping with a small amount of discharge but no odor. What could be causing these symptoms?

I have celiac disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, anxiety, ADHD, and a history of malabsorption. I'm currently on Adderall XR, Nature-Throid, and Wellbutrin. Since June, I've experienced significant cognitive impairment, neuropathy, and fatigue, along with other symptoms like confusion, word-finding difficulties, dizziness, and numbness. My MRI showed bilateral subcortical T2 hyperintensities, which my PCP said are not concerning and don't warrant a neurologist referral. My psychiatrist suggested talking to my PCP, creating a loop. Given my symptoms and MRI findings, should I push for a neurologist referral or seek a second opinion?

My son, aged 7, has persistent swollen tonsils, trouble swallowing, and constant aching throat pain with bursts of stinging, accompanied by strong bad breath. He has no fever, chills, cough, or tender swollen glands around his neck, but his tonsil has a white, webbing appearance with holes in the tissue. He has been struggling to gain or keep weight and has tested negative for COVID-19. What could be causing these symptoms and what should be done?
