You posted this in medical malpractice, but the issue could be more one of privacy and image rights. More than medical practice practitioners, the copyright attorneys on this site would be more familiar with image-related rights. Good luck

It's possible you could, but there are very few facts to go on here. If you contacted a Mississippi med mal attorney, they would likely want to know what the medication was, the dosage administered, what it was prescribed for, your reaction to the medication, your medical history, among many other...

I received an antibiotic shot and I have been experiencing soreness, stiffness in that area along with numbness in my leg. Could a nerve have been punctured?
If you consulted with a Mississippi med mal attorney, they would need additional information to form any kind of legal opinion. Attorneys generally review a claimant's file with the guidance of a doctor or other medical professional. Good luck
There wasn't a question, but if you're asking whether you have the grounds for a case, a Mississippi med mal attorney would likely ask for additional information or records. They would need further details. Good luck

Normal delivery, baby boy lived 12 hours. A lot of things went wrong. I didn't see it then. I've been going through info about death. It's clear to me now something wasn't right. Myself, I have had several surgeries due to effects of my delivery on that day.

Whether or not you have a case depends on several factors. Regardless, feel free to reach out to any attorney on this forum by clicking the... Read more »
I have medical conditions that require continued care. Physician states he will be available for urgent care for no more than 30 days. 3 scheduled appointments for these conditions have been cancelled. Including one for blood work.
Your best bet would be to contact an attorney experienced in medical malpractice to discuss your case. Like any relationship, the one between a doctor and their patient may be terminated by either party. The issue in your case is whether there is a continuing duty on the part of the physician to...

And where I can find the law
You can likely do a general statutory search online; however, in response to your main question, generally, it is unlawful for a person to be in possession or to be using prescription medication not prescribed to them.
Depends what happened, how, and what the result is.

My doctor who told me he was operating on me never explained risk/benefits. I went to surgery and ended up in ICU With a retro peritoneal bleed for a week. in recovery, there was a doctor there whom I never met before that told me he operated on me. Is this legal?
Yes it is if they had you sign a waiver that said that the doctor you spoke with might not end up doing the surgery. Contact a member of the Miss. Trial Lawyers Assn for a free consult to be sure.
I went to the emergency room in Clarksdale Thursday night for vomiting, etc. I went to emergency room in Oxford Friday night for the same thing and they diagnosed me with colitis and said it was very visible and don't see how Clarksdale missed it.
Not in this case. Not all misdiagnoses are malpractice. More importantly, the couple of days delay didn't create a harm that wasn't there--and so no case (you don't get to sue for what could have happened).;
More information is needed to answer. A local medical malpractice lawyer can review and advise.
