I have a purple dotted rash on my arm and want to make sure it's not purpura. The rash is not itchy and there is no pain. What could it be and what should I do?

I got my second shot of the Pfizer Covid vaccine yesterday and today I have headaches, chills, cold hands and feet, and dry skin. Is this normal, and what can I do to alleviate these symptoms?

I have a skin rash that started about 2 weeks ago and has been spreading and worsening. It covers the inner thighs, vagina, buttocks, and has spread to the stomach, arms, and under the breast. The rash is dry, circular patches and larger patches that are red, very dry, and scaly. It is itchy but not swollen. I have been using antifungal creams and a moisturizing eczema lotion, but it doesn't seem to improve. I did a swab test that showed high growth of both good and bad bacteria, possibly candida, but the rash is not responding to the antifungal treatment. What could be causing this rash and what else can I try?

I took a couple of knocks to one of my testicles and it's swollen up. I normally have larger than average testicles anyway and because it's swollen it's causing me some discomfort. Should I be worried?

Six weeks ago, I fractured my talus and heelbone and possibly two bones in my mid foot. I did not require surgery and have been in an air boot. I am supposed to start trying to put some weight on my foot at this point. My foot is still turning purple when it is not elevated, and my toes are tingly. Are these normal signs at this stage of healing?
