My 19-year-old son had a severe auto accident in August and has recovered from most injuries, but now has drop foot in his left foot due to muscle damage from the trauma. Is drop foot usually permanent, and is there a time limit, like 6 months to a year, after which it's unlikely to improve if it hasn't already?

I have been taking fluoxetine 20mg for the last 18 months and recently increased the dose to 40mg per day. I have always had regular periods, but this month I am more than two weeks late. I have done a negative pregnancy test, and my husband has had a vasectomy. Could the increase in fluoxetine dosage be causing my irregular periods?

My friend's husband gets an all-over body rash after having a fever. The fever doesn't seem to be associated with anything like a cold or the flu. The rash is bright red and all over his body. It starts to fade the next day and is gone in 3 or 4 days. His GP seems unconcerned, but my friend is very nervous about it.

I can't wake up in the morning. My alarm clock goes off but I don't get up. It's like I don't hear it, but I can hear fine. I go to bed early and wake up late.

My son had a fall two weeks ago and has been using Salonpas on his lower back, doubling up on them. Now, his feet, toes, ankles, legs, and knees are swollen like elephant feet, and his feet are bright red. What could be causing this and what should I do?
