I have been experiencing ankle pain for over a year, which has not improved with physiotherapy. The ankle gets stiff and sore after sitting still, often causing pins and needles. I can still run and walk, but often feel like I'm about to twist it. The ankle sometimes swells after walking up to 3 miles. What could this be and what should I do?

I have missed my period and it's been over a year. I will be turning 50 in a few months. I am experiencing stomach issues that come and go, and I am nervous about whether these symptoms are related to menopause. I saw my OBGYN in February and was told I am in menopause. Can I still be having menopause symptoms, and what else could be causing my stomach issues?

My 3-week-old baby hasn't peed since about 2 am. She's being breastfed every hour and a half and has no fever, vomiting, or other symptoms. She's also having a hard time pooping and was instructed to have prune juice. What could be the issue, and what should we do?
