I've been eating a lot of ice from the fridge and even the frost inside the freezer, probably around 2025 times a day. It's like I have a real craving for it. I'm starting to wonder if this could be bad for me. If it is, what should I do to stop wanting freezer frost so much?

Its completely a behavioural issue. You shouldn't be having it so much. So just try to control somehow. Do not keep the ice tray in the freezer. There is no medicine for such things.

View allI've been dealing with some discomfort since I had an IV put in during my recent hospital visit. There's a pretty bad bruise and the area has been painful for about a week now. I'm really starting to get worried about it. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it normal for this to happen?
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing pain and bruising after the IV. It's normal to feel some discomfort, but if it's been a week and you're still in pain or notice increased swelling, redness, or warmth around the area, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any complications.

My ESR is 23is that normal for my age? Also, my WBC count is 10,300, and I'm 20 years old. Could you tell me if that's something to be concerned about?

I'm really concerned about some of my blood test results that came back high. The RDW-SD is 51.1 fL and the RDW-CV is 14.7. Also, the PDW is 20.16 fL, which is way above the reference range. Even the MPV is quite high at 14.4 fL. I know my platelet count is 152 and the total RBC is 4.8, both of which are normal. But I'm really worried because I've heard high counts can sometimes indicate something serious, like cancer. Can you please help explain what all this might mean?
The elevated RDW-SD, RDW-CV, PDW, and MPV values may indicate variations in red blood cell and platelet size, which can be seen in various conditions, including nutritional deficiencies, anemia, or chronic diseases, but are not typically specific indicators of cancer, so it's essential to consult with your doctor to discuss these results in the context of your overall health and determine if further testing or evaluation is necessary.
