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.

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?

I'm a bit worried because my dog, who I've already gotten vaccinated, bit me again within ten days of its last vaccination. Do I need to get another round of anti-rabies vaccinations for myself, even though my dog's vaccinations are up to date?

I'm trying to understand these test results better. It says "Salmonella typhi O TO Reactive up to Titre 140" and "Salmonella typhi H TH Reactive up to Titre 1160." Then there's "Salmonella paratyphi A H AH Reactive up to Titre 180," but "Salmonella paratyphi B H BH Non Reactive." Should I be worried about these numbers? What's the difference between my typhi and paratyphi results? Any advice on what these mean for my health? I'm kind of concerned about what I should do next.
