One month ago, small red rashes appeared on my hand, spreading to my entire body within three days. Some of them swell and turn yellow. The ones on my back become painful when it's warm. Can you describe the texture and appearance of the rashes in more detail? Are they flat or raised? Do they have any specific pattern or shape? Have you recently come into contact with any new substances, such as chemicals, medications, or plants, that could have triggered this reaction? Have you experienced any other symptoms, such as itching, pain, fever, or fatigue, along with the appearance of these rashes?

I have been experiencing red spotting between periods, strong lower back pain, and smelly discharge for the past 1-2 weeks. I am currently taking antibiotics prescribed by my gynaecologist but still have pain and discharge. What could be causing these symptoms and is the lower back pain related to the infection?

I have been struggling with an upset stomach for about 2 weeks, which started during a trip to South America. My doctor prescribed ciprofloxacin, but I'm concerned about its side effects. Is it the best/safest option, and what other steps can I take to manage my symptoms?

I have been battling a virus for a week now. My symptoms include a severe cough, especially at night, which causes me to lose my breath. I am taking Robitussin, which helps somewhat. My eyes are red, itchy, and watery, often sticking together in the morning. How long have you had the cough? Is it constant throughout the day or does it come and go? Is it a dry cough or a wet cough? Any tightness in your chest? How long have you been using Robitussin? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I can hear my pulse or throbbing in my right ear when laying down. My ear is clogged, and I was lightly hit on the head with a bamboo stick in November. What could be causing this? It feels like a pumping sensation throughout the right side of my head.

I got a positive ANA test with a 1:40 titer and AC-2,4,5,29: Speckled. I also have a high ferritin count (234). Could these be connected or am I overthinking things? I had high liver enzymes and abdominal pains, and the tests were ordered by a gastroenterologist in connection with a colonoscopy and endoscopy. I have experienced joint pain, particularly in my knees and hips, and some fatigue. Are there any medications or supplements that could affect these test results, and should I follow up with a different type of doctor for review?
