My fingers swell and ache in the mornings. I do not have rheumatoid arthritis as I have already been tested, but I do use IV drugs. Could this be related and if so what could it be? Is it dangerous?

I had a stroke about 2 years ago that affected my left side. I have all the functions in my arm, hands, and legs working, but I still have muscle pain and soreness in my arm and leg. Do you think this is a result of the stroke? If yes, what can I do about it?

I am experiencing ear pain that feels blocked, and when I try to clear my ears, it feels like there's fluid and causes pain. I have a history of tree pollen allergies and recently finished a course of Augmentin for chest congestion. My ear started aching tonight, and I'm unsure if I should take antibiotics again or wait for it to pass. I take Veramyst, Zyrtec, and occasional Atralink nasal spray for allergy symptoms. Could muscle strain cause this type of pain, and should I use a decongestant if I take blood pressure medication?
