Question 1

I'm really worried because it's been 34 days since I got bitten by a stray dog, and the dog's still alive. Does that definitely mean it wasn't carrying or spreading the rabies virus when it bit me?

Accepted Answer

If the stray dog that bit you is still alive after 34 days, it significantly reduces the likelihood that the dog was shedding rabies virus at the time of the bite, as dogs typically die within 3-14 days after showing symptoms of rabies, but it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional or local animal control for further guidance and to determine if post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is still necessary.

It sounds like you're experiencing weakness and trembling in your right hand, which could be due to muscle fatigue, nerve issues, or even an underlying condition.

In the meantime, resting your hand and avoiding overexertion could help.

rimolut N, containing norethisterone, can cause changes in menstrual cycle, including delayed or absent periods, as a common side effect, especially when taken in high doses or for extended periods, and since you've already waited 5 days after stopping the medication, it's recommended to wait a few more days and if your period doesn't start, take a pregnancy test and consult your gynecologist for further guidance and to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances.
