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 because a monkey just grazed my right hand with its teeth, and there's a small mark, but luckily no blood. I've already gotten a TT shot, but should I also get a rabies vaccine? Can you advise me on what to do next?

As a smoker, you're at risk for respiratory issues. The white mucus could be a sign of: - Chronic Bronchitis: inflammation of the bronchial tubes - Smoker's Cough: irritation of the lungs and airways The black mucus could indicate: - Carbon deposits from smoking - Fungal or bacterial infection (less likely) _Action Plan_ 1. _Quit smoking_: Aim to stop smoking entirely to reduce further damage. 2. _Consult a doctor_: Discuss your symptoms with a healthcare professional to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Get a check-up_: Schedule a physical examination, including a chest X-ray and lung function tests, if recommended by your doctor.

I'm worried about my friend who had a possible HIV exposure. He got tested at 30 days with the HIV12 antibodies combo test from Dr. Lal Path Labs and it came back negative. Then, he took another test at 45 days with SRL lab, and that was negative too. Is there still a chance he could seroconvert after 45 days? This whole situation has got us both stressed out.

ask him to get tested at an interval of 6 months if that also turns out negative,then he is free from disease
