I’m 4 weeks postpartum after a c-section. My bleeding had stopped at 3 weeks, but for the past 2 days, I’ve been consistently bleeding with clots filling up a pad every hour. This is my first time experiencing this. How long can I wait before going to the ER?

I've been experiencing debilitating sharp pains in my kidneys that started a few days ago and come and go. I also have lower back pain, my leg falls asleep when standing, and I feel the need to urinate frequently. I'm on Lexapro and Klonopin, and I had abdominal surgery three years ago due to a car accident. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have Kyleena IUD and experienced very short bleeding that lasted only a day. I'm concerned if it's my period or implant bleeding. My period was regular but the last cycle lasted 50 days, and I had some spotting three days before the bleeding. I'm also experiencing breast pain and fatigue. I took Plan B after unprotected sex on May 28. What are the chances of pregnancy, and how should I interpret this bleeding?

I have small white singular bumps on my labia that itch and look like pimples, and it burns when I pee. The itching and burning started a week ago, and the bumps appeared two days ago. I have no known allergies and no other significant medical history. What could this be, and what should I do?

I have been experiencing a sudden increase in light yellow, thin, and watery vaginal discharge for about a week, which is constant and has been causing inconvenience. I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on September 17, which resulted in a tear in my vaginal opening. The discharge started 2-3 days after the sexual encounter. I also mentioned using a boric acid suppository two days after the sex, but only once. What could be causing this discharge, and how should I manage it?
