My 16-month-old daughter has had a constant, itchy, and swollen red rash all over her body for 5 days. She is behaving a bit naughtier than usual and sometimes cries. She is generally healthy and up to date with her vaccines. What could be causing the rash, and what should I do?

My scalp is itching intensely, sometimes with flakes, and I recently got mosquito bites on my lower legs that are causing widespread itching. I'm worried about potential underlying diseases, cancers, or conditions like MS or fibromyalgia. Would recent blood tests and CT scans have detected these issues, and should I be concerned about my mole results indicating atypia?

I have severe pain in my stomach, groin, and around the base of my *****, am very bloated, feel nauseous, and cannot find a position to stop the pain. I've had this pain for 2-3 weeks and it has gotten a lot worse. I have Parkinson's disease and bipolar disorder, and I've had a CAT scan which came back normal. I've also been experiencing extreme fatigue, sleeping 20-22 hours a day, not eating much but perpetually thirsty, and night sweats. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

My son might be having an allergic reaction to something he was eating. He says he feels a lump in his throat and thinks he's having a hard time breathing. I don't see any signs of him struggling to breathe. When did the allergic reaction start? Has your son ever experienced anything like it before? What are all the medications he's currently using? Anything for the allergic reaction specifically? Anything else in his medical history you think the Doctor should know?
