¿Cómo se transmite el VIH a otras personas?
quiero preguntar como se transmite el vih
Médico General
Answered on 16th Sept '24
El VIH es un virus que puede transmitirse de una persona a otra a través de fluidos corporales específicos, como la sangre, las secreciones de los órganos sexuales, el fluido de la vagina y la leche materna. Se transmite principalmente a través de la actividad sexual sin protección, el intercambio de agujas y la transmisión de madre a hijo durante el embarazo, el parto o la lactancia. Es posible que los síntomas no aparezcan durante algún tiempo, pero pueden manifestarse como una enfermedad similar a la gripe. Usar condones y no compartir agujas son las mejores formas de combatir el VIH. Si le preocupa, lo mejor es hacerse la prueba.

It looks like there are certain elements that are below the required levels in your body. For it to function properly, your body needs them. Feeling tired, weak, or unlike yourself can be signs of insufficient amounts of these substances. When some substances are too many, then it may mean that the body is fighting something. To help you feel better soon, you might have to take such supplements like Vitamin B12 or Iron among others.

I get attacks of thirst (dry mouth included), dizzy and unwell followed by feeling tired and a headache later in the day. This happens weekly (week n half most) used to be once a month or so. Previous bloods showed low folic, elevated bilirubin and b12 but no proper answers or directions.
Male | 38
You may be dehydrated, which can cause a dry mouth, dizziness, and tiredness. Low folic acid and high bilirubin levels might also be factors. Try drinking more water and eating leafy greens and citrus fruits for folic acid. If symptoms persist, see a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

I have been diagnosed with swollen lymph nodes size 14×10 mm in abdomen / presence of Necrosis
Female | 50
Growths of lymph nodes in the abdomen can be your body reacting to an infection. The lymph nodes sometimes blow up half their size, 14 x 10 millimeters, and have dead parts called necrosis. You may experience a feeling of pain or pressure in your abdomen. The doctor can treat you with antibiotics or other remedies according to the cause found as treatment.

Dear Madam/Sir My Mother aged 59 years old is having Hernia of 2mm.. Doctor recommended for surgery but WBC Count is 16000+. How to control WBC & to Control WBC Which test is recommended?
Female | 59
Your mom's high white blood cell count shows there could be an infection. After her hernia surgery, you'll want to tackle that. Doctors usually suggest a blood culture test to pinpoint the infection source. High WBC can bring fever, fatigue, and discomfort. Treating the infection should lower her WBC count. Make certain she finishes all her antibiotics as prescribed to help get that WBC in check before her procedure.

RBC level 5.10 wht to do dr please answer
Female | 32
Red blood cells are important. Too many is not good. A level of 5.10 is a bit high. That can happen for different reasons. Maybe you didn't drink enough water. Or maybe you smoke. Some medical issues like polycythemia can also cause it. You might feel tired, dizzy, or get headaches. To fix it, drink lots of water. Don't smoke. Follow your doctor's advice.

I had an I pill last month and my blood tests today are High platelet counts Wbc count -7.95 Gran %-76.5 Platelets -141 PDW-SD-19.7 What does this mean
Female | 19
Your blood test shows some changes. A high platelet level might indicate swelling or infection. With a WBC count of 7.95, your body's defense system is active. The Gran% tells about certain white blood cells, which increase when there's an infection. Your platelet count of 141 is normal, but it’s good to keep an eye on it. It seems your body might be fighting off an illness, so it's wise to discuss these results with your doctor for further advice.

I done tested hiv duo combo on 30th day it's negative with value 0.13. Then I test hiv 1&2 Elisa (Antibody only) on 45th day it's also negative with value of 0.19. Am is safe? Is 45th day 3rd gen Elisa test is reliable?
Male | 21
According to your test results, it is very encouraging that both the HIV combo and Elisa tests were negative. The 3rd-generation Elisa test is reliable and fairly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies on the 45th day. Don't forget HIV symptoms can be different; however, the most common ones are flu-like symptoms, rash, and fatigue.

is there any harm in using adfill injection instead of peg religrast injection?
Female | 45
Adfill injection differs from Peg Religrast. After cancer therapy, doctors prescribe Peg Religrast to boost white blood cells. However, Adfill has a distinct purpose unrelated to increasing blood cell count. Taking medicines incorrectly risks harming your health. Your doctor knows best which medications serve your needs. Listen carefully to medical advice about proper usage.
