why is my appendix sent to lab after appendectomy? Is it done for every patient as standard? Or did they find anything unusual during surgery?
Male | 23
The purpose of sending the appendix to the lab after an appendectomy is to perform histopathological examination. This examination allows pathologists to analyze the tissue for any signs of inflammation, infection, or other abnormalities. It is a basic step to make sure that patient's overall health is fine and nothing else that requires further treatment. Patients should talk to their surgeon or doctor for any doubts or questions regarding their medical procedure.

I got scratched under my right foot by a random cat on 12/02/24 at approximate 5:10PM at the Masjid while praying. I immediately washed the affected area with soap for about 5 minutes. The cat didn't seem rabid (No hypersalivation, itching, photophobia or visible scar or bite mark). I took an anti titenus serum afterwards as a precaution. Do I need to take Rabivax? If so, why, how, where and when?
Male | 19
It is advised that you should see a doctor who deals in infectious diseases and also get tested. The doctor will decide on the next steps depending on the scratch severity, the location, and the overall health state. A doctor may recommend a rabies vaccine based on the case.

What to do after injection of ceftriaxone wrongly and the part injected is increasing in size
Female | 22
This issue can arise when the medicine unintentionally enters surrounding tissues instead of muscle. Apply a warm, damp cloth to the affected region - this should help ease discomfort and reduce swelling somewhat. Keep the area clean, and watch closely for potential signs of infection like redness, excessive warmth, or pus formation. However, if symptoms intensify or you start feeling ill overall, it's crucial to promptly seek professional medical evaluation.
