I've had severe watery diarrhea for over a year. No pain, just undigested chewed-up little pieces of food in stool. Diarrhea just pours out and I can't hold it. Very bad odor. I go 4 or 5 times a day every day. What causes this?

I am having lower right quadrant abdominal pain that comes and goes. It is not severe but has been ongoing for a couple of days. No fever, vomiting, or difficulty passing gas and bowel movements. I am worried about appendicitis but do not want to go to the ER unnecessarily. Is this a concern, and what should I do?

My mother has stage 4 lung cancer and has completed chemotherapy. She currently has a fever of 101°F, which seems to be coming down, and has no appetite, appearing dazed. She is 79 years old and last received chemotherapy on July 7th. Should I be worried, and what should I do?

There is a white bump on my son's butt, and he is only 20 months old. I am wondering what it could be. I just noticed it today, and for the last two days, he has been putting his hand in his diaper. He has not seen a doctor about the bump yet, and there is no significant medical history to note.
