I was recently prescribed an antibiotic for epididymitis and have an appointment for my second booster shot for the COVID-19 vaccine this Saturday. Can I take antibiotics and the vaccine at the same time? Are there any risks?

I’m having anxiety and dread because my 19-month-old daughter freaks out when I wipe her, wash her in the bath, put shorts on her, or apply diaper cream. She clenches and arches her back to get away. Should I be worried about this behavior or is it a phase?

Does this sound like a hematoma to you? I hurt my leg from a minor injury three weeks ago. The bruise is gone, but the area is still slightly sore to the touch and has a small, pea-sized, tender bump. My leg also hurts if I move it in certain directions. Is this normal for such a minor injury?

I have been experiencing constant diarrhea for the past day, which has occurred six times today. I suspect it might be due to eating something bad at midnight. I also feel nausea at times and have a poor appetite. I am 22 years old and have taken some Chinese medication for the diarrhea, but it has been ineffective. I have not seen a doctor or had any investigations done for this issue. What could be the cause, and what can I do to alleviate these symptoms?

Hello Dr. David, my 3.5 year old son started to have a 39°C fever and dry cough 5 days ago. We were managing with Tylenol, and this morning his temperature dropped to 37.4°C but he is still coughing badly. He couldn’t sleep well because of the coughing. I'm concerned that it may be pneumonia. He is not breathing fast though.
