I am 81 years old and in good health except for scoliosis, a mild case of essential tremor, mild osteoporosis, and knee problems (aches, buckling). Over the last 5 weeks, I have had to quit most activities including water aerobics and shopping due to pain and inflammation in both knees. Additionally, all my fingers except the baby fingers on each hand have been increasingly hurting/aching and 'going out of joint' more frequently over the past 4 months. I don't know if my knee issues and worsening hand problems are related and I have not taken anything other than glucosamine and chondroitin. What kind of doctor should I see and what should I do about my hand and knee issues?

I am 57 years old and have experienced significant hair loss, but still have some hair. Is there a way to slow down hair loss, and do hair regrowth products work for seniors?

I am from Ecuador and will travel to Miami on June 6th. I need to schedule a Johnson & Johnson vaccine for two people aged 45 and 42. I had my first dose in Orlando and the second will be on June 9th, but I would like to have it in Miami if possible. My vaccine was Pfizer. Additionally, I need to buy a herpes zoster vaccine. Can I do this at any pharmacy?

I’ve been throwing up bile for the last few days and I don’t know why. I am 16 years old, not on any medication, and have asthma, but it doesn’t seem relevant to my vomiting. The vomiting has been stable, and I only puke when I overheat. I don’t have any stomach pain and have been eating light foods. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I have been experiencing symptoms such as a stuffy nose, dry nose, sore left ear and neck, fatigue, and easy bruising. I also have a history of positive ANA and a rash on my face. My lymph nodes have been swollen, especially on the left side, and I am concerned about the possibility of lymphoma. What are your thoughts on this?
