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.

View allI'm really worried and need some advice. If I had protection and my penis just touched or rubbed a little against the upper part of the vagina, is there still a risk of HIV? Should I ask him to get tested even though there was no penetration?
The risk of HIV transmission in this scenario is extremely low, especially if protection was used, and there was no penetration or exchange of bodily fluids. Routine testing is not necessary for such contact, but if you're anxious or unsure about potential exposure, getting tested can provide peace of mind.

I've been dealing with open wounds for a few days now, and they just won't heal. There's still pus coming out even though I've been using antiseptic cream and bandaging them. On top of that, I'm feeling super tired and restless all the time. Do you have any idea what's going on or what else I should try? I'm getting really worried about this.

What are the chances of getting HIV from a razor cut while getting a shave at the barber, especially if I had pimples on my face at the time? Last month the barber did change the blade, but the razor was old, and there was a bit of blood which he cleaned off with water. I got an HIV 1 and 2 test done 37 days later, and the result came back negative. Should I be worried?
HIV is not easily transmitted through razor cuts because the virus is fragile and does not survive long outside the body. Additionally, the virus cannot be transmitted through intact skin. As for the pimples on your face, they do not increase the risk of HIV transmission in this scenario. Since you have already tested negative for HIV 1 and 2 after 37 days, it is unlikely that you have contracted the virus from the incident you described. It is important to continue practicing safe hygiene practices and regular testing for sexually transmitted infections.
