I have been experiencing diarrhea and abdominal cramps for two weeks. The cramps are localized in the lower abdomen and are constant. I am 67 years old, have high blood pressure and diabetes (both controlled), and had a bout of E. coli in the past. I am not taking any medications specifically for these symptoms, and I have not noticed any blood in my stool, which is gelatinous and foamy. I have tried Pepto-Bismol, but it has not helped. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

Hey doc, I just yawned and now my throat hurts, feeling odd when I swallow. I'm a 26-year-old male with big tonsils, no lymph node swelling, and I suffer from GERD. The pain is roughly where my fingers indicate. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My right knee has been feeling uncomfortable, mainly in the back part and the bottom. I have started weight training but keep it light and stretch. What could this be and how can I prevent further damage? I do wear a patella brace.
