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.

S. Typhi O positive at 1:80 in a Widal test suggests a mild or borderline immune response to Salmonella typhi, the bacteria causing typhoid fever. This may indicate a past infection or vaccination, but by itself, it doesn't confirm active typhoid; clinical symptoms and other tests are essential.

I'm pretty worried and just wondering if there's any risk of HIV transmission from this situation?

So, I got this tattoo and I'm worried about the risk of infection. I went for an HIV test on the 12th day after exposure, using the HIV 12 ELISA method, and the result was negative, with a score of 0.415 SCo. Then, on the 32nd day, I took an HIV test again, which was the HIV 12 p24 Combo test with CMIA, and it came back non-reactive at 0.1. How confident can I be in these results?
-Based on the negative results from both the HIV 12 ELISA test (day 12) and the HIV 12 & p24 Combo test (day 32), it's very unlikely that you have HIV. These tests are highly accurate, especially after the 4-week mark. Trusting these results gives you a
