If your cat hasn’t had a rabies vaccine, you should see a doctor as soon as possible. Rabies is a serious disease that can be spread by animal bites. It’s better to be safe and get checked out by a doctor. They will determine if you need additional shots or not.

Male | 26
Symptoms like the flu, muscle aches, weight reduction, vomiting, diarrhea, and now high blood pressure are a cause for concern. These signs could be brought on by several things including seasonal influenza, change in diet, stress, or even underlying medical issues. It’s great that you got tested for HIV but it’s important to keep looking for what else may be causing your ailment. To help with these matters, see a medical professional who will give you a thorough check-up and decide on the treatment.

Hi , I am 20 years old . I got a second degree burn on my finger four days ago and I have a burn blister no larger than my finger nail . I have a exam coming up soon and the blister affects my ability to write. Can I pop it and cleanse the area while applying a bandage?
Male | 20
No I won't recommend you do that as it can increase the infection. You can just let it recover on its own or use a sterile bandage to protect the blister and reduce friction. If the it bursts on its own, gently clean the area with mild soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with a sterile bandage.

Hi! I’m having my exam week so i don’t want to waist time going to a doctor… maybe this will help… I’ve been feeling really tired for a week now and have been getting headaches and weird ‘pain’ while moving my eyes from side to side. It started with that but then I started to get really tired at everything. Even picking something up from the ground made my heart pound. Also been walking around with a really dry throat for some days…. Is there something I can do? Because steaming, cold water, aspirin and throat candy’s are not helping.
Female | 16
If you're experiencing persistent fatigue, headaches, eye pain, and dry throat, it's crucial to consult a doctor for evaluation. Prioritize your health during exam week and seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and advice.

Female | 7
Consuming uncooked rice isn't ideal, but stay calm. It might have bacteria or toxins, leading to tummy troubles. Watch for signs like stomachache, throwing up, or loose poop. If any occur, consult a doctor for guidance. For now, ensure she drinks lots of water and relaxes.

Chest problem for 1month please ask me a good medicine
Male | 14
You've had chest issues for a month. That's difficult. Coughing, tightness, pain, breathing problems - those are chest problem signs. Pneumonia, a lung infection, could be why. See a doctor for antibiotics to get better. Rest, drink liquids, use a humidifier - those help too.

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.
