I'm really worried about my dad. His hands and feet swell up if he's sitting for too long, and it doesn't seem like they return to normal the way they used to. We're considering looking into ESR levels but could really use some advice on that. Also, are there specific foods he could eat that might help to get his ESR back to normal?

View allI'm 20 and dealing with a connective tissue disorder. I'm really worried because I've been seeing rusty-colored blood in the morning and coughing up a little blood. The pulmonologist recommended a chest CT scan, and they mentioned that my DNS is normal and "cancapanca" is normal too. But my aPTT is at 30.0 seconds and prothrombin with INR is at 16.1 seconds, and my INR range is 1.36 seconds. My ANA test came back positive. I'm confused about what all these results mean and what could be causing these symptoms. Could you help explain this?
Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.

I'm really worried about some chest pain I've been having. It's there when I breathe deeply, move my neck, or even press on the area, and it all seems to start from the straight back. This has been going on for the past 2 years and I just don't know what to do about it. What could be causing this kind of pain?
