How many employees come directly to you with what you deem a manager responsibility? [United States]

Like the topic states how often do employees come directly to you or your HR team with things that the manager should be addressing?

Do you just address it? Do you refer them to their manager then have a convo with the manager?

How do you not go insane, when you already have so much on your plate but for some reason employees just come straight to you (whether on their own accounts, or a manager pushing them to "ask HR" because they don't want to be the bad guy.

Possible trigger: talking about health and wait times.

About the end of February I noticed a mole on my foot, I had thought there was one they were watching and felt it changed a bit so thought id get it looked at. When I went to make the appointment they had a next day and then not for a month, well, I had things going on at work the next day (and normally id drop all of them) but this time I was like no, I'm not gonna let my anxiety control me this time so I scheduled for a month out.

Fast forward, derm wants to remove so we do, that was last Tue, they told me about a week for results (ive had several biopsies all benign and always come back around 3 days) here I am, a week later and no results, so now I'm spiraling and thinking how dumb I am for not just going on sooner.

Anyways, just needed to say it.
