I have a 1-year-old who has been very sick for the past three days with symptoms including crankiness, a very runny nose (today the mucus has been green), almost no appetite, sad and weepy eyes, being very clingy, and not sleeping well. I have been giving him children's acetaminophen. Should I take him to the clinic or treat it at home?

My Rheumatoid factor is 173 and my CCP Antibodies are >250. Should I be concerned about RA? I have seen my primary doctor who prescribed Prednisone 60mg for a week, then 40mg for a week. I don't have a spleen, have chronic back pain, and recently started experiencing right hand pain and difficulty gripping. The pain is worse when laying down or sitting for long periods, and sometimes ice helps. What should I do for pain relief until I can see a rheumatologist?

I have been experiencing green stools for over a month. I am a Type 2 diabetic with an abdominal hernia and take multiple medications. My doctor is not concerned, but I am wondering what could be causing this and if my abdominal hernia could be related.

I got bitten by a small spider 4 weeks ago. Initially, it was red, swollen, and itchy. I used antihistamines and numbing cream, which helped, but I still have a small hard lump underneath where I was bitten. Why is that?
