I've been experiencing a mild fever every evening for the past week, usually staying under 100, mostly around 99. But then it seems to return to normal by the next morning. I've also had occasional headaches, though my stomach feels okay. I had a CBC and urine ESR done, and everything came back fine. What could possibly be causing this?

Sounds like you may be experiencing a low-grade fever in the evenings, along with occasional headaches. Since your CBC, urine, and ESR tests are normal, it is less likely to be due to an infection. One possible reason for your symptoms could be a viral infection. I recommend taking Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every evening when you have a fever. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Given the sudden appearance of the red spot and your history of tobacco chewing, it's essential to take precautions. Here's what you can do: *Immediate Action* 1. *Stop tobacco chewing immediately*: This will help prevent further irritation and potential harm. 2. *Monitor the spot closely*: Keep an eye on the spot's size, color, and texture. If it changes or persists, consult your doctor. *Oral Care* 1. *Maintain good oral hygiene*: Brush and floss regularly to keep your mouth clean. 2. *Use a topical antioxidant gel or mouthwash*: This can help soothe the area and promote healing. *Medical Consultation* 1. *Schedule a dental check-up*: Visit your dentist for a thorough examination, even if it's earlier than your scheduled appointment. 2. *Consult your doctor*: If the spot persists or changes, consult your doctor to rule out any underlying conditions. *Potential Causes* The red spot could be a minor issue, such as: - Trauma or irritation from tobacco chewing - Mouth ulcers or canker sores - Oral thrush or fungal infections However, it's crucial to monitor the spot and consult your doctor to rule out more serious conditions, such as: - Oral cancer (although rare, it's essential to investigate) - Precancerous lesions Stay vigilant, and don't hesitate to seek medical attention if you notice any changes or concerns.

I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?
