Dog Scratch Rabies Concern: 2 Months Risk?
A dog scratched me two months ago .will I be affected with rabies?
General Physician
Answered on 21st Aug '24
Although a dog's scratch seems small, rabies worry is natural. However, if two months passed after the incident, the chances are low. Rabies brings fever, headaches, and anxiety – signs caused by the virus in animal saliva. Still, discussing with a doctor eases concerns.

ears are blocked and my tinnitus is worse
Female | 27
I would suggest ENT specialist visit if you are suffering from blocked ears and severely hearing tinnitus. These hints could be signals of underlying problems like earwax overgrowth, ear infection, ear disorder, or hearing loss. One should get a proper diagnosis from his or her doctor to avoid developing into a more severe disease and to ensure proper treatment for it.

Jab bhi mai cold chije jaise iceream,curd,chilled water,rice,etc khati hu to pure body me sujan dikhta hai. 3-4 kg weight badha hua dikhta hai. Fir 24hour baad thik ho jata hai. What is it?
Female | 33
It's possible that you might be experiencing an allergic reaction or some form of food intolerance. When you consume cold items your body may react to certain components in these foods, leading to swelling and water retention, which could temporarily increase your weight. This kind of reaction can vary from person to person and can range from mild to severe.

Kya kaner ka ek fal khane se death ho sakti he
महिला | 23
No, I suppose that one accidentally eating a piece of a kaner (oleander) fruit is not very likely to kill. Yet, it is a very poisonous plant and any of its parts will cause very severe symptoms e.g. vomiting, diarrhea, abnormal heartbeat, or even death. If you or somebody associated with you accidentally partakes in the substance of the plant kaner, then first aid treatment is a must. Please see a gastroenterologist or go to the emergency room as early as possible.

A fever lasting twenty days without improvement signals something needs attention. Fevers come from infections like colds or flu. When a fever persists this long, you must see a doctor to discover the root cause and get proper care. Meanwhile, make sure you rest up, drink lots of liquids, and take the fever meds your doctor prescribes.

I am a 19 year old female, I have noticed some discoloration in my hand finger nails the tip is red rest of the nail is white, I searched on google and it says that it might be an indication of heart Or kidney disease, in the past I have suffered from kidney infection and nothing more though I have heard from other doctors that I have less blood in my body, I feel perfectly healthy, but I'm worried about what may be going on, what should I do? What could it be?
Female | 19
It doesn't necessarily mean you have a specific condition. The red tip and white base on your fingernails may be caused by factors such as trauma, nail biting, or even normal variation in nail pigmentation. Regarding your past kidney infection and having less blood in your body, its best to discuss these concerns with your doctor.

Good Morning I am a male, 29years from Southwest Nigeria, I have some illness I have been noticed for a while and i need advice. I always love football before but for a while I leave that activity due to academic pursuit but anytime I tried it now I get tired easily as if I will faint and slump. And moreover I get cold easily and which doesn't allow me to breathe deep as I should, but I noticed that anytime I take hot water or use hot water to bath I felt relieved but I don't think I should be using hot water for the rest so I am seeking a proper consultation
Male | 29
Anemia occurs when your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen, leading to fatigue, cold sensitivity, weakness, and shortness of breath. While hot water may temporarily improve circulation, it's not a long-term solution. I recommend seeing a doctor for a blood test to check your red blood cell levels. Anemia can be caused by factors like iron deficiency or illness, and treatment may involve dietary changes, iron supplements, or other medications, depending on the cause. Getting proper medical care is essential to address your symptoms.

I am from South Africa and was vaccinated against measles, does that mean I am vaccinated for mumps and rubella?
Female | 26
If you have been vaccinated against measles it doesn't necessarily mean that you are covered against mumps and rubella. Each of measles, mumps, and rubella is a different disease. They each have their vaccine that is necessary for protection. Mumps may make you have swollen glands while rubella can cause a rash and fever. To be entirely safe, make sure that the mumps and rubella vaccinations are received.
