I'm worried I might have COVID-19 but haven't been tested yet. How can I know for sure if I'm at risk? Also, if someone has COVID-19, whats the best way to treat them and make sure they're safe? Any tips on boosting the immune system would be super helpful. Is it possible to get in touch with you directly for more advice?

View allSo, my friend's nail accidentally scratched me and now there's some blood. Should I be worried about an infection from this scratch?
If the scratch breaks the skin and draws blood, there is a risk of infection. It is important to clean the area thoroughly with soap and water. You can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Keep the area covered with a bandage until it heals. If you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, warmth, or drainage of pus, you should seek medical attention.

I'm a bit concerned because my WBC count came back at 11.6 this time, and last month it was 9.4. I had a slight cough when they did my blood work. Could that be causing the increase? Should I be worried about this?
A WBC count of 11.6 is slightly elevated, but it may not be a cause for concern, especially if you were experiencing a cough at the time of the test. Infections or even mild illnesses like a cough can temporarily raise your WBC count. Its a good idea to follow up with your doctor if you're concerned.
