I have had severe diarrhea for the last 4 days, with bowel movements occurring at least 7+ times a day. There is no pain, but a restless feeling in my bowels. I'm afraid to venture too far from a bathroom. How can I stop the diarrhea? I've been using a home remedy of boiling rice until the water turns milky and drinking it, but it hasn't worked this time. I've lost a few pounds during these last few days.

I am 51 years old and experienced sudden knee pain in August 2007, which has since affected both knees, causing stiffness, pain, and difficulty with certain movements. The doctor advised non-weight bearing exercises, weight loss, and vitamins, but no x-rays or MRIs were ordered. What could be the cause of my knee issues?

For about 6 months, I have had burning in my lower right leg/foot. I have had nerve conduction studies (showing tarsal tunnel), an MRI of my back (negative), and I am non-diabetic. The foot & ankle specialist doesn't think it is tarsal tunnel due to my symptoms. He gave me Neurontin to try, but it doesn't help. I'm taking 100 mg tid. Where should I turn now for answers?

I had a cancer scare in 1986 and an implant was installed. In 2002, I had a problem where my scrotum degenerated and I lost the final testicle and the entire scrotum. I now have only a tight scar where my scrotum once was. Can it be reconstructed and implants be put in to give me a normal appearance again? I am depressed and it has caused a horrible self-image due to the loss. Help!

My baby, Brian, has been having yellow, loose stools for about 4 days. He has been on amoxicillin for 10 days, first for an ear infection and now for strep throat. He has no other signs of sickness and has been on a bland diet with milk and water. What could be causing this and what should I do?
