Hello, I have had a sore throat for 9 days my nose and mouth have been sore also, I have been on antibiotics for 5 days . It hurts me to swollow anything.
Female | 61
Maybe the antibiotics you have been taking for the last 5 days are not effective in controlling the infection resulting in your sore throat. I advice you to get an ENT consultation in order to get the correct diagnosis. They may recommend another antibiotic or to explore other treatment options and manage symptoms for you. Do not delay getting treatment of your problems with swallowing as this may aggravate matters.

Mujhe 2 saal pahele vaccinated dog ne kata tha aur maine vaccination nhi karwaya tha toh kya mujhe koi problem ho sakti hai

If bitten by a dog, get medical attention right away. Rabies is an acute syndrome of fatality and cannot be treated after symptoms appear. The vaccine is very effective but only if it was given before the appearance of symptoms. If you have been bitten by a dog, contact an appropriate medical specialist as soon as possible.

Constipation can be caused by a number of factors, including a lack of fiber and water in the diet, as well as a sedentary lifestyle.

Male | 19
You're right to ask about HIV risks. Such viruses can't stay alive very long outside bodies. The odds of getting HIV via tiny haircut cuts are super slim. Still, watch cuts closely to avoid infections. If you experience unexplained fever, aches, or rashes, see a doctor.
