images overlap text in mobile view

This is an issue I’m experiencing with the Milton Lite theme. I created a series of columns with a combination of text and images. When condensed to mobile view, the images nearly overlap vertically with the sections of text that come from the same block. There is no spacing at all between the elements. It is also my misfortune that in CSS styling, my images all have a 16px outline, which makes the overlap into text even worse. It’s not enough just to make the image smaller upon media query- you’d have to know how adjust all the mysterious (to me) flex arrangements that should be accommodating the shift to smaller size screen. The features within the block column can be set to be at top/middle/bottom… and so I wondered at first if those parameters are affecting how the image fits vertically stacked when in narrow view. Even so, I tried toggling those parameters to no effect.
