I have COPD and currently have pneumonia. I was prescribed prednisone and augmentin, but the prednisone was accidentally thrown out. I have an old, expired prescription. Is it safe to use the expired prednisone?

I have numb, swollen hands that are painful and have skin peeling off. The swelling has been present for several months, and I have not used any medication for it. My blood work shows no abnormalities, including no signs of diabetes. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I have been experiencing pain shooting up sensations in my cervix, menstrual-like cramping for a few weeks without a period, bloating, and sore nipples. My last sexual encounter was on the 26th and 30th of the month, and I am 17 years old. What could be causing these symptoms?

My 19-year-old adopted daughter, who is part Hebrew, has been very sickly over the past year. She has always been anemic, but now also experiences low blood pressure, fevers, urinary tract and ear infections, body aches, dizziness, and sometimes nausea. She is very anxious and currently seeing a therapist for borderline personality disorder, but she never seems to get better and is always sick with something. Her doctor recently did an ANA test, which was negative for Lupus. Do you have any suggestions?

I had hip replacement surgery on May 7. I walked well initially, but 8 weeks post-op, I'm using a walker and cane due to pain. I've had 2 rounds of antibiotics and oral steroids. My CBC results show elevated SED rate at 87 and C-reactive protein at 7.8. I've been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. What should I know about my condition and the next steps?
