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 about my syphilis tests. About two months ago, my TPHA level was 1320 and RPR was 12. My doctor put me on doxycycline, 100 mg twice a day for 21 days. After finishing the treatment, I tested again and my TPHA had increased to 1640, with the RPR still at 12. They then gave me a penicillin injection, 2.4 mu, and told me to get tested after another two weeks. This time, my results were TPHA 1640 again, but RPR went up to 14. I even did a test at a different lab and the TPHA was 12560 there. I'm scared and not sure what's going on. Can you help me understand these results?
Your test results indicate a persistent syphilis infection, and the treatment outcomes are concerning; the increasing RPR titers (1:2 to 1:4) and varying TPHA results (1:320 to 1:640 to 1:2560) suggest that the infection may not be responding to the treatments administered; consult a specialist,

Can being bitten or scratched by an Indian bat give someone rabies? Should I get a post-exposure prophylaxis if I've been near bats? I'm really worried about this whole bat thing and would love some advice.
Possible Causes* 1. *Cervical or vaginal injury*: The sensation of hitting something during fingering could indicate a cervical or vaginal injury, leading to pain and discomfort. 2. *Cervicitis*: Inflammation of the cervix can cause pain, especially during or after intercourse. 3. *Vaginal infections*: Bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections, or other vaginal infections can cause pain, discomfort, and irregular discharge. *Recommendations* 1. *Consult a gynecologist*: Your girlfriend should schedule an appointment with a gynecologist to determine the cause of the pain and receive proper treatment. 2. *Abstain from intercourse*: Avoid any form of intercourse until the gynecologist has evaluated and treated the underlying condition. 3. *Practice safe sex*: In the future, use protection and practice gentle, consensual sex to minimize the risk of injury or infection.

I'm a bit worried because my Dengue IgM came back positive about 15 days ago, but the IgG and NS1 tests were negative. Im still feeling really weak even now. The strange thing is, I don't have a fever, headache, or any drop in my platelets or WBC. What should I do about this?
Dengue fever can cause weakness even after the fever has subsided. To help with your symptoms, you can take plenty of rest, stay well-hydrated, and eat a healthy diet. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen to help with any body aches or discomfort. Additionally, you can consider taking vitamin C supplements to boost your immune system. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider.
