I am a 42-year-old female with no known medical conditions, but recent lab tests show slightly high cholesterol and pre-diabetes. For the past month, I have been experiencing weakness and throbbing, burning pain on the left side of my body, which worsens with activity or rest. My hand is stiff, and I also have headaches, middle upper back pain, and soreness in the middle of my back. What could this be?

I got fillers under my eye almost a month ago. The bruising was severe and lasted 3 weeks. Now, I have discoloration that my injector says is PIH (Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation). They recommended using Obagi skin bleaching cream. How long could this discoloration take to improve, and is it possible for it to go away completely?

I have been experiencing rectal/colon pain since August, with symptoms including stinging pain, bleeding, gas, and blood-smelling stool. I am concerned about the possibility of colon cancer, especially after watching videos of younger people being misdiagnosed. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be worried about cancer?

I have been experiencing food poisoning for the past 3 days, with symptoms including diarrhea, stomach pain, nausea, and a brief fever. I ate raw sushi, which I didn't realize was raw. I am 29 years old and have been taking Pepto Bismol. I do not have any allergies or other medical conditions. What should I do to alleviate my symptoms and where can I get a doctor's note?
