I'm really worried because I had 23 lymph nodes on my neck after finishing my TB treatment. After seeing a doctor, I was given Moxif 400 and Pantocide 40, which helped, and the nodes burst out. I was fine for a while, but now after 7 months, a single node is back with pus-like symptoms. I'm really anxious about what's the best treatment for this and how long it will take to heal. Is there a chance it could come back again after 6 or 7 months even after getting treated? Please, I need some guidance on what to do.

So, yesterday I was bitten by a rat on my thumb, and I noticed some blood coming from it but it stopped by itself after a little while. I washed my hands with soap and water after that. I went to get a tetanus shot and an anti-rabies injection in my butt. But now the doctor told me I need to get two more rabies injections. What should I do? Should I be worried?

Yes follow entire post exposure prophylaxis follow your doctors advice

I'm dealing with spine TB and have been on TB meds for six months now. I did a CT biopsy, and all TB drugs seem to be working. But my MRI report after six months doesnt show any improvement; in fact, it says the infection has increased. I couldn't walk at all when I started, but now I can walk without any pain, and I've even gained 10 kilos. I'm just confused and a bit worried about why the MRI isnt showing progress even though I feel better. What could be going on?

according to TB guidelines you have to take medicine upto18 months then only u get better results in mri
