View allI'm currently taking valprol CR300 twice a day and I'm 59 years old, weighing about 70kgs. I just got my blood tests back and my triglyceride levels are at 260. I'm wondering if this could be because of the medication? What other side effects should I be aware of? Is it safe for me to stop taking this medicine? I've had two epilepsy attacks, one in August 2014 and another in March 2015. Any advice would be appreciated.

I've noticed a bruise in my left armpit and there's some numbness happening there too. My arm's been pretty painful, especially around the bicep and upper arm. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've been dealing with this issue after getting into a fight where a girl pulled my hair really hard and even kicked it. Ever since then, I've noticed a dent in my head and when I try to put my hair up, there's this big lump that runs across my whole head. It feels like there's fluid inside and it's super uneven. I've been to the doctor and even the hospital, but nobody seems to know what it is, and it's really painful. What could this be, and do you have any ideas on how I can get relief?
That could be contusion or hematoma no need to worry it will settle with time take adequate rest and you can try warm compression
