I have been having red spots appear suddenly on my feet and legs for nearly a month now, first starting around the feet and later spreading up my legs. Sometimes they're large blotches rather than dots. They start off bright red at first and then gradually fade away to purple and disappear, like bru

Hi all! I'm a 24 year old female with a history of folliculitis, eczema, and sensitive skin. It all started about 10 years ago when these nasty boils popped up on my leg after shaving. It was creepy!

25F, 5’4”, caucasian I developed this weird rash all over my torso a few days ago. It started off as just small red dots about the size of a pea scattered on my torso (shown in last 2 pics in my imgur link) but then it suddenly developed into the rash shown in the other pics. It’s all over my chest,

He's been to a few different doctors 7 times now. He's almost 2 years old and this just won't go away. It starts to improve and then flares back up again. I'm constantly told they don't know what's causing it. It's painful for him and I'd love to figure out how to fix this. He's currently on cli

Hey all, I'm an 18-year-old male with a dermatitis-looking rash on my chin. I've had it since mid-March 2020 and been told it looks like impetigo, perioral dermatitis, some type of fungal infection, etc. I've been to 3 dermatologists so far. 1st one from May-June, 2nd one from June-August, and now I

44M. I've had this issue for 20 years now, but never this bad. My left parotid randomly swells as I'm eating (sometimes repeatedly, sometimes a year might go by without noticing), and I usually manage it by pressing and massaging it to drain. When it gets bad enough that the gland becomes solid and

My new work location does not cover the punctured end o

Hello, does anyone here understand the reasoning behind Clindamycin HCL being the oral formulation and Clindamycin Phosphate being the IV? I know that solubility plays a role, but does a decreased solubility in the GI tract affect absorption? Thanks!

Has anyone else been getting unusual rejects from Medicare (not Medicaid)? Today, I had 3 claims reject because the manufacturer had not “registered” the particular medication with Medicare. I’ve seen these with MediCAID, but never for MediCARE. I also received a “not covered due to patient age” on
