I'm really anxious right now. After I took off the condom, I accidentally touched the tip of my penis with the same hand. Could this be a risk for HIV or any other harm? I'm pretty scared about this.

Gosh, Im feeling a bit anxious and really need some clarity. I did an HIV test using Elisa two years after potentially being exposed, and the result was 0.32. Earlier, I also had a rapid antigen test which was non-reactive. Do these results mean Im in the clear, or should I be worried?

My mom has had this swollen node on her neck for about 4 months now. It didnt hurt or anything at first, but it started to get bigger. After running through a bunch of tests like FNAC, turns out its a TB gland. We've been on TB meds for like 3 months now, but she's started feeling pain and theres pus building up inside the node. It hasn't gone down at all. What should we do?

increase the dosage take it according to her weight
