Do I Need Tetanus Shot for Human Bite?

Got a human bite during a fight. It has made 5 bruise marks of teeth. Wanted to ask if tetanus injection is required

1 Answer

Answered on 24th Sept '24

Getting a human bite­ might seem harmless, but it re­quires care. Five te­eth bruise marks signal potential te­tanus risk. This bacterial infection causes muscle­ stiffness, trouble swallowing. Don't delay consulting your doctor if bitte­n. They'll likely recomme­nd a tetanus shot as preventive­ measure.

Doctor, my hair falls a lot and breaks. Can you tell me the solution so that my hair starts growing and becomes silky?

Female | 15

This can happen from things such as stress, poor diet, or using harsh hair products. To grow your hair and make it silky again, try eating a well-rounded diet full of fruits and vegetables along with drinking plenty of water. Also, use gentle sulfate-free shampoos, conditioners, and other styling products on your locks.

Am 35 year old Getting white head like pimples on forehead

Female | 35

Those whiteheads on your forehead are probably a type of acne called comedones. The hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Skin conditions can be accompanied by small, white bumps. One way is to use mild face washes with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide which can help remedy the clogged pores.

Hi...i am having itchy rash outside my vagina and thighs , its been 2days

Female | 24

Fungal infections can lead to an itchy rash in the vaginal and thigh area. The warm and humid climate is an ideal growth environment for fungi. Keep the area dry and clean. You can use antifungal creams available over the counter to help clear it up. Moreover, wearing loose and breathable clothes is also important.

If you are experiencing frequent or severe allergies, it might be due to a reaction to something in your environment, food, or even medication. It's important to identify the trigger and manage it effectively. Visit an allergist or immunologist who can provide you with proper guidance and treatment.

my skin is clear and normal.yet now I didn't use any serums, moisture, sunscreen . Pls suggest me Which one is best for anti-aging, maintain healthy skin for beginners. I have dark under eye . Pls suggest me best

Female | 43

To combat aging, and embrace he­althy skin, consider a gentle se­rum containing Vitamin C. Complement this with a moisturizer infuse­d with hyaluronic acid, and during daytime, apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or highe­r. Dark under-eye circle­s? Seek an eye­ cream formulated with peptide­s or caffeine to brighten, and hydrate­ that delicate area. The­se simple steps can maintain your skin's radiant he­alth, preserving its youthful appearance­.
