I'm really worried about a situation that happened about a week ago. I had an encounter with a commercial sex worker where I was grinding, rubbing, and poking her nude vagina for around two minutes. I had my underwear on, and there was a release of precum, while she was completely naked. She mentioned that she experienced a leakage of fluids. I'm concerned about the possibility of her fluids getting through my underwear and reaching my urethra. Is there a risk of HIV or any STDs being transmitted through this kind of contact, even with my underwear on? Should I consider getting tested, or am I overthinking? I've read some things online saying it might be nothing, but I would really appreciate your advice.

You do not need to worry about HIV transmission in this scenario, as the virus does not pass through intact fabric like underwear. Naked frottage (grinding without penetration) carries an extremely low to negligible risk for HIV. However, if you're anxious, you can do an HIV test (4th generation) after 4 weeks for peace of mind and rule out other STDs with a routine panel. Rest assured, your described exposure is highly unlikely to result in any infection.

View allI'm really stressed and can't focus on anything because I'm worried. Is the p24 duo HIV test accurate if I'm testing at 21 days? I'd really appreciate some clarity on this.

I'm trying to understand the results of my recent Widal test. The report shows Salmonella typhi O at 1:160 dilutions and Salmonella typhi H at 1:140 dilutions, plus Salmonella paratyphi AH and BH both at 1:120 dilutions. The impression says it's positive, so does that mean I have a typhoid infection? Could you explain what these numbers indicate? Also, Id really appreciate some advice on what kind of diet I should be following right now.
High Creatinine Levels in Blood _Creatinine Level 9: Indicates Severe Kidney Dysfunction_ _Proper Treatment_: 1. _Dialysis_: Recommended to remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood. 2. _Medications_: To manage underlying conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, or kidney disease. 3. _Lifestyle Changes_: Dietary modifications, fluid restriction, and avoiding nephrotoxic substances. _Dialysis Options_: 1. _Hemodialysis (HD)_: - Suitable for acute kidney injury or temporary kidney failure. - Typically performed in a hospital or dialysis center. 2. _Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)_: - Suitable for patients with some residual kidney function. - Can be performed at home. 3. _Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)_: - Suitable for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. _Temporary or Permanent Dialysis_: 1. _Temporary Dialysis_: If your brother's kidney function is expected to recover, temporary dialysis (HD or PD) may be suitable. 2. _Permanent Dialysis_: If your brother's kidney function is irreversibly damaged, permanent dialysis (HD or PD) or kidney transplantation may be necessary.

I'm really worried about my wife. She was diagnosed with TB in March and started on the standard treatment, but now she's dealing with back and neck pain, and stiffness in both areas. I've had some general physicians suggest getting an X-ray of her spine to check for Pott's spine, while others are saying an MRI of the whole spine or a CT scan of the LS spine might be better. Can you help me understand what might be going on and which specialist we should see? I'm also confused about why she might have spine TB symptoms when she's already on meds for TB in her lungs.
Yes .MRI spine is advised to the patient for evaluating potts spine TB..If TB spine is present pt needs ATT for another 6 months ,since it is extrapulmonary TB.
