I’m currently going through a miscarriage. I’ve been bleeding not heavy, and mainly only when I wipe after going to the loo for 4 days now with no cramping. My question is how long will this take? And how will I know once its all over. I’ve only had a blood test from my GP and nothing else has been offered.
Hi. I am 26 year old male. And since 5-6 days I am having a vibration like effect in my upper left chest area. It occurs on random timings and lasts for sometime or even couple of hours. First I thought this is due to acidity but isn’t. I also have minor cough. Current heart rate – 76-80 BPM I want to know due to what this is occurring and the solution to this. I am quite worried about it. And also this is not gastritis.
I had a snowboarding accident 6 years ago. I tumbled down a small ski mountain and landed on my left shoulder at an odd angle before I stopped flat on my back with my feet twisted completely backwards (with the snowboard attached). I was driven to the urgent care clinic and told I sprained my shoulder, my ankles, and have concussion (that lasted 6 months). They gave me a sling and crutches and sent me off. A year later I came back with a pinched nerve and my shoulder, and in checking it out they uncovered a long list of issues connected to the accident: weakened ankles and knees (I’d have sudden shooting pains and my legs would give out), left hip at a lower angle than the other, and as well as a pinched nerve in my left shoulder that had been numbing my entire arm, the muscles around my shoulder blade were so loose the bone was winging out. Rock hard, painful and aching muscles that were so tight neither my physical therapist nor a professional masseuse could work them out, even with electric -therapy. I’ve been in physical therapy for 6 years straight, get a massage here and there, try and work out knots with the thera cane I was given, but I’m always either in pain or dull and achy in my left shoulder, neck, and sore all up and spine and near both shoulder blades now. When I walk too much my left tilted hips aches. It’s hard for me to sleep as I sleep curled on my left side. I’ve been to the hospital and they told me it was all a muscle issue and that I ought to just keep doing physical therapy, but other than taking away the brunt of the agony, it’s really not doing much. Am I just cursed to do all this physical therapy for the rest of my life and be in pain, or is there anything at all more I can do??
I’m a 28 years old female -from Algeria, Africa- and I’ve been suffering from what it’s been diagnosed as a mycosis in my intimate area since the age of 14. I went to a specialist twice when I was a teenager, but now I’m too shy and embarrassed to let anyone see this part of my body, so every time it appears I just take what the doctors prescribed me: Saforelle Gentle Cleansing Care and Mycocide (an antifungal that contains Triamcinolone,Néomycine and Nystatine). When I apply the cream for a week the swollen spots get better but the dark “things” on my lips (I can’t tell which ones minor or major) never went away. I’m too scared to know the truth about my condition but I can’t stay indifferent anymore. What I noticed during all those years is that it gets worse when I take antibiotics to treat other minor health problems. For the record, I clean this area with water everytime I use the toilet and with soap once a day. I also never had any sexual contact or relations in my life, but I got recently engaged and I’m frightened to let my fiancé get close to me.
I don’t have a camera but I’ll try to take a picture of it if necessary. Please, help me.

Hello,
My husband and I have been trying to conceive for the last 4 months. The last 2-3 months I have had breast pain (mostly on my right breast but some on the left, feeling more deep in the tissue and closer to the side of my breast). I have also had dull pressure on my ovaries that comes and goes; mostly on the right but some on the left. I went to the gynecologist recently and she did an exam of both without any concern. I currently take a prenatal about two months ago started taking an iron supplement and fish oil supplement. I have also noticed increased hair loss and I have always been one who is always tired (I am not pregnant)???
my 10 year old daughter has had a stomach ache for a week. She feels hungry but when she eats she feels nauseated. Pediatrician could not find anything obvious so only prescribed ONDANSETRON anti nausea – what do you think is causing the stomache ache – ulcers or acid? Would it be okay to get a kid’s antacid like peptobismol or tom’s to relieve pain? How about tylenol.
Hi.
I had a bad accident ~5.5 weeks ago. I broke my thumb’s metacarpal on my right hand, initially they believed it was a bennett fracture, but luckily wasn’t displaced, so didn’t require any surgical action- and on my left I hand broke and displaced my scaphoid, and the distal end of my radius in a few places. Around 4 weeks go, I had a procedure done where a titanium compression screw inserted into my scaphoid, carpal tunnel surgery to avoid complications with the nerve that runs through my palm and near the scaphoid, and a bone graft and two temporary pins in my distal radius. My right hand had a splint, which came off today.
I’m the captain of my schools running teams, year round since my HS sophomore year- cross-country, indoor track, track, and I was on track (no pun intended) to a division 1 running scholarship. I went into the ER knowing I had broken my left wrist and right thumb, but at least I had a sense of relief that I would be able to run with the casts on- at least it wouldn’t effect my main focus and way of keeping calm/getting away during the school year. But that changed when I realized I needed surgery- I’ve been instructed absolutely no, zero physical activity, which is killing me. I get why I’m instructed not to run: If I fall, and break it worse, I could be losing dexterity or feeling in arguably the most useful body part- But, I can’t think of any reason why a core exercise, or a stationary bike ride could injure me, other than the risk of infection from sweat. Is it a real concern?
I really want to be able to save this year of running, it’s a huge deal to me, and missing the first half of the year is going to make it nearly impossible to achieve my goals this year, and if I don’t do it this year, it’s not going to get done. Can I maintain shape (not running, not racing, just stationary biking and core) until I have the pins removed from my arm without worry of infection?
Female, 40 yo, history of low blood pressure. Lately I’ve been having a slow heart rate as well, as low as 38 bpm. I exercise regularly and eat clean 80% of the time. Am prediabetic and control with diet. I’m frequently tired and lack energy. Have no issues falling asleep, in fact I sleep rather soundly the first few hours after falling asleep. This is when the low pulse is recorded. Combined with my low bp, is this normal?

If there are alternatives I would love to know please.?I would be glad to get your opinion.
Thank you
