I have a rash on my upper thighs and inner elbows that started about 4-5 days ago. It's super itchy, sometimes burning, and has now spread to the inside of my knees. I've tried calamine lotion and Benadryl, which helped slightly. I also have a healing burn from 12 days ago, and the rash is affecting both ends of this burn. Could this be an allergic rash, eczema, or scabies? What should I do to treat it?

I had a small area on my finger that looked like a slightly open paper cut, possibly exposed to saliva from a student's mouth. Should I take antibiotics or just monitor the area?

I had a biopsy taken from my armpit, and the results did not indicate cancer. However, my doctor suggested a day surgery to remove a lymph node for a closer examination. My skin is also red and painful, and I'm concerned about how this will affect me during the summer. Can you provide guidance on what to expect and how to manage my condition?

I ate at 6:15, took clozapine, topiramate, famotidine, and oxtriphylline at 7:45, and threw up at 9:15 with no pills in the vomit. Should I retake the medications?

Can you confirm that lancing devices are reused on multiple patients with new lancets, and that this practice poses no risk for HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or other blood-borne infections?

I have stopped using marijuana and sleeping pills for sleep, but now I wake up at least once a night to pee, my sleep duration has reduced to 7-8 hours, and occasionally I wake up after 5 hours and can't fall back to sleep. My sleep schedule is different from the normal pattern due to my partner's time zone. I also have insulin resistance, which I keep under control, and I'm concerned about my kidneys. Why has this problem occurred after I started sleeping naturally, and what can I do about it?
