My 3-year-old is itching her body and has a rash that started last night. The itchiness occurs intermittently, and there are no other visible skin changes besides the rash. She has no known allergies and the rash appeared after her bath. She has been eating less, consuming water, had a runny nose before the rash, and complained about her throat. I gave her Advil. What could be causing the rash and what should I do?

I have been experiencing loose diarrhea since Monday while in the Dominican Republic, which became bloody last night. I also woke up with a low-grade fever. The diarrhea was intermittent until last night, and Imodium provides relief. I feel slightly nauseous, my appetite is lower than normal, and I have slight bloating. I have been using Imodium for two days and I am 29 years old. Are there any other symptoms I should be aware of, and what could be causing this?

I am experiencing new tendon pain and hip soreness, along with swelling in my shin and knee areas. I have been active, walking 7-8 miles daily and playing tennis 1-2 times a week, but recently had to stop due to increased soreness. I am concerned about the potential causes of these symptoms and whether they could be related to a possible infection or degenerative changes. What could be causing these symptoms and what steps should I take for diagnosis and treatment?
