There is something missing here. How can a plug cause such a wound? The wound is minor in any case. If you foot is swollen, it will pass. If the plug has not been in dirt or mud, you needn't worry about tetanus. In the unlikely case that it has, then yes, you should get a tetanus booster.

I was wondering if I fractured my finger

The only way to make sure a finger is not broken is via a picture diagnositc device - x-ray is the easiest.

Ibuprofen overdose

Your symptoms fit well with Ibuprofen side effects. If you are comfortable with it, stop taking Ibuprofen and see if the symptoms do not disapear. If not, you will need to get a gastroscopy done to see if you have gotten an ulcer. On the other hand, you could also get a prescription for 40 mg. pantoprazole and take one daily for 3 months. That should fix your symptoms. IF you tell yourdoctor your story, you should have not trouble getting the prescription.

Is it okay to be constipated after gastric sleeve surgery?

Yes, for some time, but not til your days' end. If you are still having trouble after 3-4 weeks. see you GP for options.

It is theoretically possible but highly unlikely. A number of conditions must be met. 1. the cat is rabid (and if it is, you would know and keep away from it), 2 the scratch must be deep enough to bleed and 3 the cat must have licked its claw very recently or the cat licks your scratch wound immediately after it scratched you.

How do you know that you have an enlarged liver and spleen? You have likely been scanned, either ultrasound, CAT or MRI. In any case, the referring doctor is the one to talk to about "Now what?" Both need attention and the sooner you have a clear idea of why, you will be given some options for what to do about it.

Pregnant without sex

This is one of the most absurd questions I have seen on FATD. Although theoretically possible, it would have to happen by sitting with your labia on the edge of the toilet seat READ MORE
This is one of the most absurd questions I have seen on FATD. Although theoretically possible, it would have to happen by sitting with your labia on the edge of the toilet seat where a man very recently ejacualated, and then insert a finger up your vagina and move it around up there. Sounds crazy? Definately.! Not at all likely for it to work even under this theoretical scenario.

Cat Scratch

It is theoretically possible, but extremely unlikely. It would entail the cat being rabid, for one, and the introduction of the animal's salive in the wound, which is not that READ MORE
It is theoretically possible, but extremely unlikely. It would entail the cat being rabid, for one, and the introduction of the animal's salive in the wound, which is not that unlikely. It you have warranted suspicion that a cat in your vicinity is rabid, seek veterinary andor police help immediatly. It is nothing to joke about.

Hematoma not going away

Make sure the therapist uses a bona finde apparatus, the only one that I know of comes from Thor Laser in the UK. They are farily common in the USA.

This sounds rather complex. You write that you did not take a white oval pill today, but that you threw one up. That must mean one of three things: either your system has completely stopped and you have retention in your stomach combined with extreme low stomach acidity, in which case you belong in an acute medical ward (but if you are feeling no discomfiture, don't worry about it), or your memory of what you have ingested is off, or someone sneaked one of those pills in something you swallowed, porridge for example. If you are feeling sick, you should consult the ER. If you are feeling OK, chalk it up to Murphy is lurking and shit happens.
