Why am I vomiting blood after drinking alcohol?
Throwing up blood after drinking alcohol is a major indicator. There might be irritation or bleeding happening in your stomach. Putting your finger down your throat to make yourself puke will make things worse. You need to quit drinking booze right away and see a doctor. Don’t do anything else that will irritate your stomach more, and try to drink some water so you don’t get dehydrated.

Could my persistent headaches and facial swelling be concerning?
It sounds like you may be experiencing sinus-related headaches, which can cause pressure in the forehead, face, and around the eyes. Symptoms like nausea, nasal congestion, and sneezing suggest inflammation, possibly due to allergies or infection. Staying hydrated, using a humidifier, and trying over-the-counter pain relief may help. However, since your headaches have persisted for two weeks, I encourage you to consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation.

Could inserting finger briefly into anus pose HIV risk?
There is a low risk of HIV transmission through a brief fingering incident, especially if the cut had begun to heal, as HIV does not survive well outside the human body. Minor wounds are unlikely to provide a viable pathway for the virus, particularly if your test was negative just two weeks prior. However, any new symptoms or concerns should be assessed by a sexologist, who can provide tailored advice and peace of mind. It's always best to consult with a doctor for personalized guidance and to ensure your health is monitored appropriately.

Why am I experiencing prolonged bleeding on birth control?
It sounds more like your body is only getting used to birth control. It is quite common to have irregular bleeding when you start using birth control.

And if these symptoms persist or become stronger, please get in touch with your gynecologist for advice.

How long until clogged ear clears post antibiotic treatment?
The pressure and crackling you're feeling may be due to fluid trapped behind your eardrum, often after an infection. It usually clears on its own within a few weeks. In the meantime, you can try chewing gum, yawning, or performing the Valsalva maneuver (close your mouth, pinch your nose, and blow gently) to open the Eustachian tube. If the problem persists for more than a couple of weeks or worsens, it's best to see an ENT doctor for further treatment.

Tip of nose still swollen 1 year after rhinoplasty
Experiencing some residual swelling at the tip of the nose one year after rhinoplasty can be normal in certain cases. While the majority of swelling typically subsides within the first few months following the procedure, it's not uncommon for minor swelling to persist, particularly in the tip area, for a longer period of time.
Several factors can contribute to the persistence of swelling at the tip of the nose after one year such as Skin thickness, Surgical technique used, etc. If you're experiencing persistent swelling at the tip of your nose one year after rhinoplasty, it's recommended to consult with your surgeon for an evaluation. They will be able to assess your condition, determine the cause of the swelling, and provide appropriate guidance. In the meantime, here are a few things you can consider:
- Follow-up appointment: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your surgeon to discuss your concerns and have a thorough examination. They will be able to determine if the swelling is a normal part of the healing process or if it requires further intervention.
- Be patient: Swelling after rhinoplasty can take a significant amount of time to completely resolve. It's not uncommon for residual swelling to persist for up to a year or even longer in some cases. Allow your body ample time to heal, as the final results of rhinoplasty can take several months to become fully apparent.
- Avoid trauma: Take care to protect your nose from any trauma or injury during the healing process. Even minor accidents can cause additional swelling or affect the final outcome of your rhinoplasty.
- Follow post-operative instructions: Ensure that you are following all post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon. This may include specific care for managing swelling, such as avoiding strenuous activities, refraining from excessive sun exposure, and avoiding certain medications that can increase swelling.
- Massage: Your surgeon may recommend gentle massage techniques to help reduce swelling at the tip of the nose. However, it's crucial to follow their specific instructions, as improper techniques or excessive force can have adverse effects.
- Consider corticosteroid injections: In some cases, your surgeon may recommend corticosteroid injections to help reduce persistent swelling. These injections can help reduce inflammation and promote healing.
Remember, the advice provided here is general, and it's important to consult with your surgeon for personalized guidance based on your unique situation.
