Can HIV Pass Through a Cut in the Barber Shop?

Hiv can live outside of body in 38°c environment temperature humidity 18 % in sunshine not sunlight. My concern because i got small cut during hair cutting at commercial barber Shop

Answered on 19th July '24

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.

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.

Excessive mucus from the nose is mostly due to allergies, sinusitis, or viral infections. Yu can try saline nasal sprays or rinses to clear the excess mucus from your nose. Drink lot of water and use a humidifier or steam treatment may also help loosen and thin the mucus making it easier to expel.

A calf Bitten by 3 dogs before 1.5 months ago.and no rabies symptoms are shown in past 1.5 month in the calf. Yesterday I mistakenly wash my mouth with the same water which the calf drinked water.Is there any chances of rabies.

Male | 22

If a calf did not show any rabies symptoms in the past month and a half after being bitten by a dog, it is unlikely to have rabies. Some of the symptoms of rabies in animals are burrowing in the mouth, changes in behavior, and slow swallowing. By your mistake to rinse your mouth with that same water, you have the least possibility of getting rabies. It is significant that you take care of and properly clean any wounds. If some symptoms occur like fever, pain, or difficulty swallowing, consult a doctor.

last night after having a margarita & hitting my weed pen a few times, i began feeling extremely nauseous. i went to the bathroom where the nausea worsened & my anxiety began to get bad. i started pacing back & forth & taking deep breaths to calm down. as the nausea got worse i started getting really lightheaded & felt like i had to lay down. i layed down in the bathroom & my friends said i was super pale & extremely sweaty. what happened?

Female | 20

It's possible that the ALCOHOL and weed caused nausea and dizziness.. When consumed in large amounts, both substances can cause low blood pressure, which can lead to feeling lightheaded and sweaty.. Anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.. The best course of action is to avoid excessive alcohol and any such products use and seek medical attention if symptoms persist...
