Why are my symptoms worsening post-rabies vaccine?

Hey, what I’d like to check is what the implications are that I seem to have symptoms developing after having the first vaccine. The bite mark has swelled and is itchy/prickly. The muscles in the affected leg feel tired and heavy. Might be totally unrelated but I woke up today with the hamstring in the other leg feeling pulled, I don’t think I was doing anything that would pull it. Facts are - I was lightly bitten by a wild dog on the evening of the 15th. By noon of the 16th I had the vaccine (Rabivax-S). Since then the symptoms above have appeared around the bite mark.

Swelling and itching near the bite, tired legs, and muscle heaviness are likely due to the dog bite and the vaccine. Your body might be overreacting to the vaccine. The hamstring pain in the other leg may not be related to the bite or vaccine. Use cold compresses and OTC antihistamines for itching and pain. Rest your legs and avoid physical activity to ease fatigue. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor. Ensure rabies prevention by following your doctor’s advice.

I m a 61 yr old female.i had a lower back nerve surgery in August but from September I m experiencing pain in lower back.what should I do??

Female | 61

The pain you are experiencing can be due to the inflammation or irritation of the nerves which are located in the back. It is vital that your doctor is aware of the pain so they can assess it and choose the most appropriate action. Treatment alternatives may contain physical therapy, medication, or further assessment in order to treat the primary issue of the pain.

I am experincing upper neck ,back and chest pain since 3 years. I experience it everytime I get stressed.

Male | 26

Stress can make your neck, back, and chest muscles feel tight and painful. When stressed, your muscles tense up, causing discomfort. Remember to take breaks, breathe deeply, sit up straight, and try gentle stretches or a massage to relax tense muscles.

i'm 19 years old and i have problem in hip they told me that i have to go under operation of total hip replacement so i was asking you to suggest me where i can go where they have good successful rate and even i was asking if my both legs will have the same length after operation couse i'm suspicious right now affected leg is smaller compared to other and if i was asking if i will walk on my own

Male | 19

Hp replacement solves issues like pain and ineffectiveness. Top hospitals for the procedure are the ones that have good results, so look for a place and hospitals that have gained a positive reputation among patients. The surgery will then make your legs more even in length and if you take care of yourself and follow the therapy programs properly, you will be able to walk on your own as before.

Painful swollen foot in 85 y old lady since 20 days after possible eversion injury Treated conservatively with walking air cast but little improvement Your kind opinion

Female | 85

An outward roll of the ankle may cause immediate pain and swelling, so an eversion injury is likely. There could be mild fractures or other problems missed by the initial examination or X-rays. I would advise you to get it checked again, if not much progress has been made in the next 3 weeks even while using an air cast for support.
