Calf Stiffness Post ACL reconstruction
Its been 2 weeks since I had an ACL reconstruction on my right leg with hamstring tendon as the autograft. I am currently walking with a single crutch and undergoing rigorous physiotherapy to get back ROM. I am having extremely sore mornings with stiffness in the operated leg. Most importantly, the medial side of the right calf is extremely stiff and painful which is causing me a lot of pain during physiotherapy. I am applying ice to it about 4 times a day but still the area has been very painful. There is no clot or swelling in my operated leg. What should I do to reduce the pain and discomfort? Will the pain fade away with time?

White cloudy substance around right eye
Back when I was 10 I tore, what I was told, the sixth eye muscle. The muscles to move the eye. I have had two surgeries to try and correct this double vision I have now. Those surgeries, to what I believe, involved moving one of the other muscles slightly over to fill the missing role. Now, at 26 I am experiencing a slight discomfort puffiness feeling around it. I wear contacts and it feels puffy the most when I have them in, but I am going to say that might be psychological because I have all the other options available that contacts can arise to worry about as well. I am unsure if it is just scar tissue that I shouldn't be worried about or if it is something that can be scooped out. It does look and feel different than normal eye boogers though.

Painful urethra
I am a female, and a few days ago my urethra started hurting. Just there. Not when I peed. Only if I touched it / wiped after peeing. Then the next day , the pain was less but there felt to be discomfort / itching. And then I was peeing a lot. Then at night it kept feeling like I had to pee but I couldn't. Eventually I did.
I would automatically think UTI - however my pee is completely normal color and smell and hasn't been insanely frequent , just slightly more than usual.
I'm not experiencing any other kind of pain in my lower abdomen. Everything is concentrated to the urethra area.
There is no abnormal discharge; everything is about as it usually is.
So this is my confusion. I don't know what to pinpoint it as because there's no other symptoms.
If it helps at all, the day before all of this happened there was some sexual activity but no intercourse with a penis.
I just wanna know before I spend money on going to a doctor.

Pain and swelling due to injury
Yesterday (6 pm)I sustained an injury to my lumbar spine when I hit the corner of a wooden post. The pain was 7/10, but I had no nausea/vomiting, tingling, or loss of movement or feeling. The pain faded within an hour or so, down to a 2 or 3/10. However, my brother pocked me there a few times, and swelling increased and pain increased to 5/10. I applied ice and witchhazel, and took ibuprofen. This helped, pain went down to 4. Today I still have some swelling and pain 3/10, and have been taking ibuprofen, but have trouble finding a comfortable position and still feel discomfort. Should I consult my physician or let it heal on its own?

Eye redness, alternates between eyes
I have eye redness which generally alternates between each eyes. No itching or burning sensation. Sometimes I feel a very mild pain in back of the red eye. Age 23. Was diagnosed with allergic conj , mgd, rosacea keratitis and now recently the same doctor diagnosed it as nodular episcleritis(there is a nodule near cornea). I dont have photophobia as such. Also had an allergy test a few days back and tested positive for cockroach allergy but i doubt it is allergy as normally its only one eye red and almost no itching and watering at all. no joint pain but i do have bloating and stomach discomfort and itching on both sides of abdomen lately.
