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.

I'm a bit worried about something. I had sex with a condom with a commercial sex worker, and there was some kind of cut or abrasion on my penis shaft inside the condom. The condom didn't break or slip during sex, but I'm anxious about the risk of HIV transmission when taking the condom off. Could you help me understand what the chances are?

There is minimal risk,but try to avoid having sex until your wound is healed,and get yourself tested for HIV every 6 months once.

So a monkey bit me last week, and I'm a bit unsure about what I should or shouldn't be eating right now. Are there certain foods that I'd need to avoid or be cautious about? I'm really curious to know if my diet needs to change because of this bite.

Your 40-minute run and sweating before the blood test likely impacted your fasting blood sugar reading. _Why Fasting Sugar is High_ 1. _Adrenaline and cortisol_: Intense exercise triggers the release of stress hormones, which can raise blood sugar levels. 2. _Dehydration_: Sweating can lead to dehydration, causing blood sugar levels to increase. 3. _Liver glucose release_: Exercise can stimulate the liver to release stored glucose, increasing blood sugar levels. _Consider Retesting_ Repeat the fasting blood sugar test after a period of rest and a normal diet to get a more accurate reading.

I finished my rabies vaccination series back in February, but I just got bitten by a dog in April. Should I get a booster shot now, or am I still protected? How long does the vaccine's protection last?

If you have completed a full course of rabies vaccination, you may not need a booster dose after a recent dog bite. The rabies vaccine provides long-lasting immunity, typically lasting for up to 2 years or more. However, in case of a high-risk exposure like a bite from a potentially rabid animal, a healthcare provider may recommend a booster dose as a precaution. It is important to seek medical advice promptly in such situations.
