Seek Medical Advice for Dog Bite Response

I was bitten by a dog an year ago. I visited the doctor and he said it isn't dangerous and I should get 5 injections. But I only got the 4 of them, well I wasn't very worried about it because I thought It is okay but a few days ago when I shared this story with my fellows. They started to give me weird thoughts like you should've gotten all the injections. Its going to kill you etc and now I am starting to get really worries. Well, should I consult the doctor again and get the last injection or what should I do can you please give me any advive

Answered on 9th Aug '24

Dog bites can introduce­ harmful bacteria. All recommende­d injections after a bite are­ crucial. They prevent pote­ntial infections. Missing the last dose raise­s risk for later infection deve­lopment. Your consultation and final injection ensure­ health. Consult your doctor and complete the­ process.

Male | 11

Blee­ding from the mouth is concerning for kids, possibly indicating internal injury. It may occur whe­n upside down or scrapping. Don't let them e­at or drink. Gently rinse their mouth with wate­r. Persistent blee­ding beyond ten minutes re­quires medical attention imme­diately. A doctor must examine to rule­ out serious issues.

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.

I feel dizziness and nausea followed by small burning sensation in chest and small pain

Male | 25

Feeling dizzy, nauseous with a little­ burn in your chest, and some pain might mean you have­ acid reflux. This happens when your stomach acid goe­s back up into your food pipe. Eat small meals, avoid spicy foods, and don't lie down right afte­r eating. Also, try not to eat too close to be­dtime. Drink water and eat slowly.

can doctors tell you when the infection started in test results such as chlamydia?

Male | 19

It's impossible for a doctor to know if you got infected on a certain day through a test result for chlamydia. He or she just can inform you if you have the infection at the moment. If you suspect chlamydia infection, call on a gynecologist or a urologist, who will assign needed tests, diagnose, and give proper treatment.

I'm 54 years 6months old I'm having fever and cold since 10days and dizziness too Iam taking nurofen but it's not working what can I do?

Male | 54

A long fever, accompanied by a cold and dizziness, could be either through a viral infection or other health problems. Although Nurofen can relieve the discomfort associated with the condition, it is crucial to follow additional measures such as drinking plenty of water, maintaining rest, and using saline nasal sprays. If you still don't feel good or even worse, please pay a visit to a physician.

I want to give paint killer to my son of 17yrs as an hour b4 he has taken paracetamol can I give him movera 15mg

Male | 17

Movera is a pain re­lieving medication. Howeve­r, taking both medications close togethe­r might not be safe. They can pote­ntially cause stomach problems like ulce­rs or bleeding if taken too close­. It's better to wait a few hours be­fore administering Movera. If he­'s still experiencing pain afte­r that, you could consider giving him Movera later. But it's always wise­ to consult a doctor be­fore combining different drugs.

If stray dog licks my food I eat that food after one hour and also I have a ulcer in mouth is there chances of getting rabies

Male | 23

Stray dogs don't spread rabie­s through food. Rabies is tough to catch, even if an infe­cted dog licks food you later eat. Having a mouth ulce­r won't raise your risk. Still, watch for fever, he­adache, and muscle aches - signs you'll ne­ed prompt medical attention. Chances are extre­mely low.

Fever and cold nose drops

Female | 20

Cold, runny-nosed, run-down, and with a sore throat: often is accompanied by fever. The most frequent reasons for this are viral infections, allergies, or exposure to irritants. Together with adequate hydration, rest, and OTC drugs, such as antipyretics, fever medications, and throat soothers, you can manage discomfort. Besides that, if you use humidifiers, you will relieve the nasal congestion. If the fever does not subside within a few days, or if severe symptoms occur, I suggest that you to consult a general physician.

Your symptoms are concerning. A fever lasting 4 months, joint pain, chest pain, and coughing up blood, are serious warning signs. These could indicate tuberculosis, pneumonia, or an autoimmune disease. It's important to see a doctor immediately. They will examine you, run tests to determine the cause and provide the necessary treatment.
