Your symptoms and: findings are too nonspecific to provide you with a specific diagnosis. It may be as simple as you needing to eat a more nutritious diet and get more exercise. Discuss this issue with your health care provider who has all of your information or schedule a video appointment with a physician on HealthTap.
