I got hit in the ribs during a fight, and it's been really painful when I laugh, take a deep breath, or even when I cough. I originally thought it might be a broken rib, but it surprisingly doesn't hurt when I touch it or move my torso around. It's been hurting for four days without any sign of getting better; if anything, it feels like it's getting worse. Do you think this could be a serious problem? Should I consider seeing a doctor?

View allI've been feeling pretty off today with a headache and a lot of dizziness. I took a nap and when I woke up, it got worse. I feel really light-headed now, I'm having some trouble breathing, and my heart feels like it's beating really fast. Do you think this could be because of Tylenol? I took it for a fever earlier. What should I do?

What could cause someone to pass away if they were laying on their side in the recovery position with blood that had come from their mouth and coagulated on the floor, and had a greyish skin color with a deep purple bruise on their forehead or cheek? I noticed they were told to start compressions until the ambulance arrived, but when I tried to roll them, they barely moved. I'm really concerned, and I'm trying to understand what might have happened.
Based on the description, possible causes of death could include cardiac arrest, asphyxiation, or a severe head injury, potentially caused by a fall or blunt trauma, which may have resulted in the observed bruise and stiffness in the body; other potential causes could include a pulmonary embolism, stroke, or an aneurysm, but a thorough investigation, including an autopsy and toxicology report, would be necessary to determine the exact cause of death.

So a couple of days ago, this dog lunged at me and tried to bite, but thankfully my jeans kept me safe. Like, there were no bites or scratches, just some bruising. I had my rabies shots and a tetanus shot back in January, and the doctor at the government hospital said I should be fine. But Im kinda worriedshould I just relax, or do I need to be more cautious?
