Is there a chance of HIV transmission if the outside of the condom touches my penis after ejaculation? I'm a bit worried about this and just want to understand the risks.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
HIV transmission risk is very low in this scenario, as the outer side of the condom would only be exposed to semen after ejaculation, and HIV requires direct contact with mucous membranes or open wounds to transmit. However, it's always good to be cautious about condom integrity and handling to reduce any potential risk.

View allI've been wondering about something since I got bitten by a dog last week. It's a street dog, but it's been taken care of by a family. I'm not sure if it's been vaccinated, so I've started my Rabipur vaccinations and have had three doses so far. With all of this happening, can I eat non-veg food right now? If it's not safe, how long should I wait before I can have it again? Also, if I can have non-veg, are there any specific diet restrictions I should follow for now? Just trying to figure things out.
Variable Stool Texture and Timing _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gastrointestinal motility_: Variations in gut motility can cause changes in stool texture and timing. 2. _Dietary factors_: Consuming different types of food or drinks throughout the day can influence stool texture and frequency. 3. _Hormonal fluctuations_: Hormonal changes throughout the day can affect bowel movements. 4. _Underlying medical conditions_: Certain conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroparesis, or small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) can cause variable stool texture and timing. _Common Patterns_ 1. _Morning stool_: Often more solid due to overnight gut motility and hormonal changes. 2. _Afternoon and evening stool_: May be flatter or more liquid due to increased gut motility and hormonal changes throughout the day. _Recommendations_ 1. _Keep a food and symptom diary_: Track your diet, stool texture, and any symptoms to identify potential patterns or triggers. 2. _Consult a gastroenterologist_: Discuss your symptoms with a specialist to rule out underlying medical conditions. 3. _Maintain a balanced diet_: Eat a fiber-rich diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to support healthy gut motility and bowel habits.

I noticed an oval-shaped cystic lesion in my left temporal region with a long coiled echogenic structure moving inside it, and my doctor suspects larva migrans. I've been taking Bandy plus tablets and the swelling has reduced a lot, but I'm wondering if I should see a worm specialist to avoid surgery. Which type of doctor should I consult for this?
