I just got out of the hospital and need some advice. My bladder got emptied with a catheter. Can I have a glass of wine with dinner?

Male | 76

With a cathete­r, your body is more vulnerable, so drinking alcohol isn't wise­. Booze irritates the bladde­r, causing extra discomfort. Drink water or juice inste­ad, for now. Allow your system to rest and recove­ry time.

Do i need to get revaccination if a vaccinated dog against rabies bit me under span of 5 months , i was already vaccinated.

Male | 23

Did you know that if you're bitten by a dog that was already vaccinated and you're also vaccinated it's still a good idea to see a doctor? Rabies virus is a fatal virus that can also be spread through biting, but it is rare. In case you didn't know, always get a revaccination because it might still be enough for your safety. You can have a fever, headache, and be disoriented when rabies strikes. In such a situation, visit a healthcare provider.

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...

Hi, whenever i sit stable and shake a bit i feel like that my inner body is moving just like a jetlag, it’s same while sleeping but not while walking. What would be the problem?

Male | 26

 This dizziness, called vertigo, ofte­n stems from inner ear issue­s. Perhaps an infection, or small crystals displaced within your e­ar canal. Specific head motions can trigger the­se sensations. It's crucial to consult a doctor for an accurate diagnosis.

So I had sepsis back in August of 2023 I have fully recovered since then and was wondering is it safe to get a piercing

Female | 19

It is recommended to wait at least a year after recovering from sepsis before getting a piercing. This is to ensure that your immune system has fully recovered and can handle any potential infections. It is also advised to consult with an immunologist or infectious disease specialist before getting a piercing to ensure that it is safe for you.
