PET scan shows nodules in lungs
My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in October,2013. Right breast was removed followed by chemotherapy and radition therapy. This entire treatment was done in Vijayawada from October,2013 to July,2014. Now there are no complaints for my mother except cough with flum in the morning after she wakes up.

In 2016, due to stomach ache , gall bladder was removed. Now we need a guidance in a right direction by a good doctor.

Hand foot mouth disease for 11 month old
After 1.5 days of high fever(102.8) and sore throat,my son started having multiple rashes in his legs,butt and hands. Little bit of blister is visible inside mouth and he is unable swallow or eat foods.
Our regular pediatrician is unavailable so another doctor diagnosed and told us this is Hand Foot Mouth disease.
Today is 3rd day since the fever started. The rashes are still coming up but the fever has not come back. He is coughing very much.
How to know if this is chickenpox or HFMD ? How long does it take for the baby to get cured ? (Atarix is given )

Sore muscles after flu/fever is gone
I had mild fever for 3 days with general tiredness and cold/cough and I took some pain reliever tablet having paracetamol plus aceclofenac.
Took tablet only for 2 nights and fever/temperature was gone(it never went close to 101 anyways).
Now it's 3rd day since fever is gone still my whole body is sore/aching, sore throat, I am tired most of time, have dry mouth(had generously taken plain water) and urine color dark yellow, almost to brown. Lower back pains too.
Main concern is while sleeping/lying-down, I get enough pain/discomfort on whole back body as it is tender to touch.
Is this normal? what shall I do to get rid of this soreness related symptoms.

Need advice
Hello Doctor,
PFA on my query. Sorry for the attachment.
I have advised to take chest xray and abdomen scan by General physician. Results came as normal. But still my left and right chest ribs are paining which is mild and uncomfortable feeling for me. Doctor said because of stress I am having pain. I have couple of doubts wanted to clarify.
1. Should I need to test for cancer. I don't have cough. Nor I drink or smoke. But I have itching in my anal.
2. I have attached a snap of my leg which seems to be soriyasis not sure please confirm. It is only in the leg. It is not itching.
3. I have under gone endoscopy and doctor confirmed I have acidity. But taking medications it is not working.
4. Is ribs paininng to left and right is there for more than 5 months. Is that pain will cause because of anxiety and depression. I do yoga and walking.
Please advise what should I do further because it bothers me in daily life.

Tests for fever
Hello Doctor
My 1.5 years daughter has been having fever ranging in-between 100-101 F since Monday morning with no other symptoms such as running nose or cough etc. She is taking the diet as regular, no change in food or fluid intake. Though she seems a bit less active than usual or not, she is playing as normally.
My question is that I want to know which blood tests can we get done beforehand before visiting a paediatrician for an in-clinic consultation? I do not want to waste any more time just for knowing the tests on the first visit and then finally for the actual treatment.
I hope I have mentioned my query clearly. Waiting for your valuable answers.
Thanks
