It looks like you have a nasal fracture or a deviated septum. I suggest that you see an ENT specialist for a complete evaluation. They can assess the degree of the injury and administer the right treatment. It is vital that we do not ignore any nose injury as it may result in long term complications if left untreated.

Hi I have a lump on my lower back and it’s been there for about a month or so and won’t go away even if I stretch, it hurts to massage
Female | 17
A lump on your lower back that's been there for a month and doesn't go away might have various causes. To be safe, you should consult a general physician or a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis. The lump could be due to different factors such as a cyst, lipoma, or infection. Since it's painful and doesn't respond to stretching or massage, it's best to avoid self treatment and seek medical attention.

You seem to experience tiredness, difficulty focusing and struggles with memory. Various factors contribute, like pressure, insufficient rest, and unhealthy nutrition. Modafinil, a medication, sometimes helps these issues, especially for narcolepsy or sleep apnea patients. It increases alertness, potentially improving concentration and recall. You can visit a sleep specialist or general physician to get medications.

I have been biten by my cat (one of its fangs scratched my skin), and its been a three mouths since then, and in the last feew days i get some headaches, stomach disconfort and some chest preasures, it is posible to be rabies? The cat seem to show no simptoms and i can still drink water but then i feel something in the neck
Male | 20
Rabies is not very frequent in cats and if your cat has not shown any signs of strange behavior, then there is no need to worry. The symptoms you mentioned, such as headaches, abdominal pain, and chest pressure, are more likely to be caused by other reasons. Perhaps anxiety or a minor illness going around. Please pay attention to how you feel; if it worsens, you can go to a doctor to check it.

If your cat hasn’t had a rabies vaccine, you should see a doctor as soon as possible. Rabies is a serious disease that can be spread by animal bites. It’s better to be safe and get checked out by a doctor. They will determine if you need additional shots or not.

Dors it couses eyes cencer
Male | 18
Dors or DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is a chemical that was banned and is known to have many health problems, such as cancer. There is no direct evidence that links DDT to eye cancer, but it is better to avoid exposure to dangerous substances. For any concerns or symptoms related to eye cancer, see an ophthalmologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
