I believe the answer is:

malady

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'complaint' is the definition.
(malady is a kind of health problem)

'oddly mean entitled person' is the wordplay.
'oddly' means one should take alternating letters (letters in odd-numbered positions).
'entitled person' becomes 'lady' (lady is a kind of person. I am not sure about the 'entitled' bit.).
The alternate letters of 'mean' are 'ma'.
'ma'+'lady'='MALADY'

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
