I am a 68-year-old male with general good health and anxiety issues, including white coat syndrome. During exercise, I experience a sensation of clogged ears and slight lightheadedness afterward. My heart rate can reach 172 bpm during intense exercise, which is above the estimated max heart rate for my age. What could be causing these symptoms, and is it safe for me to exercise at such high heart rates?

I am a 35-year-old female with generally good health, but recently, I have been experiencing random muscle pains, mostly in my lower back, abdomen, and left side by my hip. I went to bed feeling fatigued and sore, and woke up with a high fever and chills. The pain worsens when I cough or sneeze. I am still in bed with a fever and chills, having to change my clothes throughout the night due to sweating. I am anemic and have a heart murmur, but neither has caused me any serious illness. What could be causing this and what tests should I undergo?

When sitting flat on the floor with legs straight out in front, my right foot naturally turns right to 45 degrees. Also, when walking, if I want it parallel to my left foot, I have to use my thigh muscle to straighten it. I have lived many years with no problem, but I feel I could have run better at college. I have a daughter who is now 13, and I noticed a similar configuration in her when she was 4/5. Are there any conditions or implications if this is a static condition regarding her physical activities or anything else of a serious nature going forward in her life?

My 6-year-old granddaughter has been on antibiotics since Saturday for ear pain and stomach ache. The school notified me that she is still complaining of ear pain. We leave for Europe on Sunday and will be meeting her parents. What should I do?
