I am experiencing severe itching that progresses to electrical-like shocks in my left arm, feeling like jellyfish stings, especially at night. I have been diagnosed with cellulitis/staph infection and treated with Bactrim and topical Clindamyacin, but there is no improvement. A previous diagnosis suggested nerve ending issues and prescribed a topical steroid cream and Atarax, which also did not work. I am 53 years old, have no swelling or tingling, just burning and itching sensations, scattered red bumps, redness, and no fever. What could be causing this and what further steps should I take?

I have a smelly discharge from pores under my ear lobe that has been present for four years. I consulted a doctor about a year after noticing it. What could this be and what should I do?

Woke up with inflamed ear lobes, majorly swollen eyes, a splotchy rash on my upper and lower cheeks and chin, and swollen lymph nodes behind both ears. There is not much itchiness, no runny nose or sneezing. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have osteoarthritis with 2 knee replacements, a shoulder replacement, mild spinal stenosis, and some hand osteoarthritis. I recently had surgery and am experiencing localized pain. I also had a fractured occipital area in my skull with intracranial bleeding after fainting. I had an MRI and CT scans, but no specific problems were found. What could be causing my pain, and what can I do about it?

I sometimes experience a warm sensation in my core around my midriff and upper belly region, which radiates outward from deep within. It is comforting and not associated with sweating or discomfort. I am under considerable emotional stress and wonder if this sensation is related to stress or if it has a physical cause. Have you heard of others experiencing a similar phenomenon?
