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.

View allI'm a bit concerned after getting my covid test results. When I took the test, I had a cough, and my CT value was 21. Now, I don't have any cold or cough symptoms anymore. Is this something I should be worried about? What do you think?
A CT value of 21 indicates a high viral load at the time of testing. Since you no longer have cold or cough symptoms, it is a good sign that your body has likely fought off the infection. However, it is still important to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance. In the meantime, you can consider taking a course of antibiotics like Azithromycin 500mg once daily for 5 days to prevent any secondary bacterial infections.

I'm a 21-year-old guy and had unprotected oral sex with a girl, but I don't know her HIV status. I also ejaculated in her mouth. I've taken the HIV Tridot test three times once after 30 days, then after 45 days, and again after 74 days. All the results were negative. How reliable are these tests, and could they turn positive later on? What's the window period for the HIV Tridot test? I'm pretty anxious about this and would like to understand more.
The HIV Tridot test is highly accurate after 74 days, as the window period for most HIV tests is 2-12 weeks. Since your results are consistently negative, the chance of turning positive later is extremely low. For complete peace of mind, a confirmatory test at 90 days (like a 4th-generation test) is advisable.

I'm getting my rabies vaccines right now and I'm wondering if it's okay to eat non-veg like mutton and chicken during this time. Can you advise me on this?
There is no specific diet restriction while on rabies vaccination regimen. You may consume a non-veg diet without concern.
