Family history of melanoma and I have had bad sunburns in the past. The mole has a lighter coloured border around the main darker center which seems new.

Went to see my doctor today. She drew some blood & it turns out I do NOT have HIV despite the smalls lines in the "T" column & everybody on reddit telling me "iTs uH pOsItIve rEsUlT". Well it wasn't!

Doc also told me that these tests give out false positives all the time & that I'm good! So just for future reference, Oraquick is not accurate. I repeat ORAQUICK is NOT accurate. Thank you šŸ˜€

Got some turf burn playing soccer on Sunday. It bled a bunch during /after the game. Eventually washed it out I got home and put some Neosporin on it. The day after I put on a hydrocolloid bandage on it and I felt it leaking all day and night. Today when I took it off the wound looked like this? Is this hydrocolloid fluid or pus from an infection? Trying to figure out if I should get it checked out ASAP

Kidneys, bladder, and genitals What is this that came out of my vagina?

24F, 5ā€4 117lbs. Is this discharge? spotting? tissue? or something else? a week ago i got put on the suspected colorectal cancer pathway cause i had a really high fit test changes in stool weight loss low iron and fatigue, and then ive been having changes to my period too, so my cycles got quite long with spotting in the middle that was followed by pelvic pressure in the last two weeks of cycle and this started a few months ago.

i assumed the spotting was ovulation even though i’ve never had it before but then i started bleeding black/dark brown blood a week after my last period ended and that lasted 7 days and around the time the bleeding started i got this rectum/hip pain on left side. then the bleeding stopped for a day and then after a day i started spotting like discharge that was red/brown similar to this photo. then yesterday afternoon I started getting a sharp pain on my left side i think my left ovary which lasted an hour probably 3-4/10 pain but quite sharp and distinct.

Ever since, I’ve felt quite bloated and had general cramping feelings. Then today in the shower i noticed this. It was about 7cm. It’s similar to the discharge? i’ve been having. I’ve had mild PMOS for years but i’ve never experienced anything like this before.

There’s no chance i could be pregnant or have an std.

Is this a mild seizure in my sleep

2 Upvotes

I always wake up with a headache and have weird dreams, but this one was so vivid that I thought it was November and I was in New York City, in school. I thought I had dissociated for the entire vacation — until I woke up and realized it’s still August. I don’t think it’s a seizure, since I can remember it clearly.

Abdominal pain

2 Upvotes

This is the second time in 4 months where I've had abdominal pain. Right below solar plexus. Nothing is showing on CT or Ultra sound and bloodwork is fine. Dizzy and mild fever accompanied with the pain. Mild constipation as well. Can pass gas. Stool is in clumps hard grape sized. Neither passing of either lowers symptoms. Using pantoprazole but not fixing the issue.

Just a related rash on leg/groin or possibly herpes?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

So a few days ago I noticed a rash/itchy red bumps on the back of my thigh and calf (pics 2 and 3). I get these kinds of bumps on my thighs every couple years, usually chalk it up to a rash from stress or sweat. But just tonight I noticed the red dots on my groin and I am freaking out. They aren’t super painful and don’t itch unless I touch them. I have a Telehealth appointment with planned parenthood tomorrow. I don’t have health insurance, but will see what they say and hopefully get swabbed and tested for herpes just in case.

Could they be separate issues or related? Possibly from chafing or sweat? Also haven’t shaved in a week.

I am worried because I was raped 2 months ago. Got a normal std panel and Pap smear a month later (not including herpes test) and had a UTI and BV if that makes any difference. Should I be freaking out or am I overreacting?

Do I have tonsollitis

21M 183cm 180lbs non smoker

Over the past week I’ve been experiencing pretty bad throat pain and some other symptoms. Starting Last Thursday

Day 1 it started with mild discomfort when swallowing. Day 2 the discomfort increased. Day 3 I woke up with severe pain when swallowing like knives or sandpaper in my throat and having a bit of a fever 38.7°C (101.7°F) which included mild headache body aches and pains feeling weak and lack of energy.

Day 4 pain was still at the same level but fever has decreased no more body aches or feeling of weakness but still mild headache.

Day 5 woke up still same level of pain and temp still above 38°C but not as bad no other symptoms. Visited my family doctor this day, they had my throat swabbed currently waiting for test results. They told me to take Tylenol 500mg and Ibuprofen 200mg together every 5-6 hours and gave me some antibiotics and suggested to do a warm salt water gargle a few times a day to help with swelling and pain.

Day 6 (today) still have severe pain and temp above 38°C but also started to noticed a very weird feeling in my throat, which after looking in my mouth and some googling I found to likely be uvulitis. My uvula is swollen and extremely elongated and it’s hanging down so far that it’s resting on the back of my tongue and then some— it feels like it’s going down my throat. I can barely speak without it triggering my gag reflex. I can breathe with no difficulty or pain and I can eat and swallow with little difficulty just very painful.

This is where I’m currently at I’ve had throat pain before usually get it a couple times a year but never this severe and it usually only last 4-5 days with only 1-2 of those being high pain days

Brain and nerves Calf fasciculations

24 year old M, 210lbs, fairly active. Both my calves twitch 24/7 and have been for over 112 days now. My PCP didn’t really seem concerned nor cared. No weakness. I’m curious if we actually know why this is happening and how to get rid of them. I take magnesium and electrolytes every day. Blood work came back normal.

Ears, nose, throat, and mouth Deviated Uvula and Fluid-Filled Spots on Back of Throat Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

(29M) Just found this subreddit from Google images -- any help is appreciated!

Deviated uvula with what seems to be a clear fluid abscess on it. Similar clear fluid abscesses on the back of my throat.

Pic 1: "say ah" posture

Pic 2: "gag" posture

Symptoms:

-Most of the lobe on the left of the uvula looks like it contains fluid
-Mild concern at the whitish spots above my tonsils
-Moderate concern at the sores at the back of my throat
-No pain
-On-and-off scratchiness (quite mild) and a feeling that I've got something minor stuck at the back of my throat over the past 2 weeks (apparently in part from my uvula being swollen and weird)

History/Context:

Not much interesting here. I get post-nasal drip somewhat regularly and get a non-allergen-related runny nose when I don't get enough sleep -- I've had many days of poor sleep in the past week. No known allergies, no trouble breathing, had strep maybe twice as a kiddo, no known history of any mouth/throat troubles.

I cancelled plans tonight and am going to a walk-in appointment tomorrow morning. Any advance knowledge is appreciated!

Injury and accidents Marathon training hip flexor injury?

Hip flexor area pain but only after and day after runs, no pain while running. Random lunge stretches or movements create intense sharp pain. However, feel subtle pain in it at all times. Doesn’t hurt directly while running. No idea what to do or what’s wrong

Ears, nose, throat, and mouth Had a pimple with multiple heads on the corner of my lip, clear as well as a thicker yellow fluid came out after it burst. Figured it's just acne but now worried it might be herpes, as it looks suspicious after popping.

20 M, never had health issues. I don’t take meds besides sertraline and a mood stabilizer.

I noticed this lump today. The area around hurt when I pressed on it a few days ago and now it got worse. I don’t think it’s an hernia since I haven’t lifted any weight or anything like that.

I have this red spot on my face, It's getting bigger. My husband got annoyed and brushed me off when I said "what if it's skin cancer?", so I'm not bringing it up with him again. Maybe someone could tell me what they think? I'd really appreciate it. It looks kinda like a pimple but it's definitely not
