No. Just no. Do not try to put a wet towel in the back of your throat OP. It will do nothing. Gargle with warm salt water a few times a day and wait it out. It'll go away on its own.

Exactly. That's why plenty of women (myself included) don't have a period on it. The uterus lining doesn't get thick enough to need to shed. I haven't had a period in over a year and it's amazing! I do have some minor side effects but nothing I can't work around. (Vaginal dryness mainly.) It does suck being 35 yrs old and dealing with that but a little lube goes a long way and I love not having a period or the risk of blood clots (smoker) yes, I know I need to quit. It's a horrible habit.

No underlying problem. Petechiae. Just from scratching. Try not to scratch it.

At the moment, grey but they could very well change.

Aliceinboxerland

That won't make their eyes hazel. Lol I can tell just fine from their photo their eyes are brown. Two shades mainly.

Aliceinboxerland

Green with brown central heterochromia.

How long since you started them and what medicine is it exactly? It could be from that. I would talk to the doctor who prescribed the meds and let them know.

I doubt it's a wart since it popped like a pimple and contained fluid. Unless you had a wart that was nicked and got infected it's prob something else. Likely just a pimple/infected ingrown that popped and led to a cut. Just leave it alone and get tested when you're able to. I wouldn't stress too much over it though.

And I'm saying pain doesn't equal strep every time.

Aliceinboxerland

You can have a sore throat without having strep. A swab will tell you if it's strep or not OP. Might just be a viral infection.

Definitely! One side of your abdomen being rock hard is more concerning than the blood imo. The blood may be a one off but your other symptoms are not. Definitely make an appointment or get to urgent care or the hospital if need be. How long has it been feeling hard like that? That's never normal. Anytime your soft abdomen feels that hard you need to have it checked out. Sometimes it's just bloating but that would normally be bilateral so I'm thinking it's something else going on. Definitely get a pelvic exam and some blood work and from there they can decide what imaging needs to be done. You need a full workup though as soon as possible. Talk to your parents. They would want to know, trust me. Show them this post if need be or write down all your symptoms and show them and explain you're worried and need to see a doctor. Edited to add- it's possible you have a partial GI blockage which is why you switch off from not being able to go to having diarrhea. Possible that's what's going on and you're feeling a hard area on that side. Could be part of your colon that is partially impacted. Not fully since you're able to go but are you able to pass anything solid?

They're more of a grey with brown in the center rather than green and brown blended like hazel. Very pretty!

Aliceinboxerland

That would be a contact.

Aliceinboxerland

Right? Gorg!!😍

All of this is concerning. One or two things alone would be worth a check up but the blood and hardness on one side is definitely concerning. Could be an ovarian cyst like someone else said or possibly a tumor. Definitely get checked out as soon as you can however you can make that happen.

Aliceinboxerland

19.5 is within the normal range for a male. I wouldn't be concerned. Follow up if that's what your doc wants you to do.

Aliceinboxerland

That would be green with brown central heterochromia, not hazel. With hazel the colors blend.

Aliceinboxerland

Hmm. Well there's your answer I guess. Follow up with your doctor. If you've had scans done and you're being treated by a doctor listen to them-not people online that can only see the bump and take a wild guess.

Aliceinboxerland

I don't think this is a muscle tear if it's been 10 months with no improvement. Why did you think that? The fact that it bulges out more sometimes than others makes me think it's a hernia. Since it's been this long with no improvement I would see a doctor about it.

Aliceinboxerland

How long have you had it? What does it feel like? Hard, soft, mobile imobile? Possibly a hernia.

Aliceinboxerland

Grey-green with brown CH. Hazel has no grey and the brown and green blend together which yours don't. Very pretty!

Aliceinboxerland

It shouldn't cause lumps that are hard and the size of a marble though. I would try hot compresses and sitz baths and if it isn't going away have it checked out by a doctor. Don't squeeze or try to pop it!

Aliceinboxerland

They're talking about the urethra. Tiny little hole that is very close to the vagina. Bacteria from sex getting near the urethra can cause UTIs.

Aliceinboxerland

Definitely green. With brown central heterochromia. In hazel eyes the colors blend. Yours do not.
