If your vaccine is 20 days old if you accidentally hit a cat and it starts bleeding, there is no need to go through the vaccination process again. The vaccine that you took ought to have defended you from rabies. You have to clean the surface of the cut with soap and water, then apply a bandage on it and check if it is red, swollen, or has a hot sensation. If you experience any unexpected symptoms, make sure to call your doctor.

I am 21 years old, my weight is only 34 kg and I have also done all the tests, there is no such symptom came in reports , I want to increase my weight and breast increase, so please suggest me medicine.
Female | 21
You want to get fit. Being too thin can happen if your body uses up food fast or if you do not eat a lot. To gain weight, eat good stuff like fruits, veggies, grains, and protein. Do not skip meals. Eat often. As for breasts, they come in all shapes and sizes for each girl. Pills may not change them much.

Are the regular biometric identity registration detect HIV
Male | 28
Typical identity checks don't identify HIV. This virus weakens immunity, but early on, causes no signs. Later symptoms may include fever, weight loss, and infections. It spreads through body fluids. Getting tested reveals your status. See a doctor for treatment and care.

I am a 29 year old male. Recently I started a relationship with my girlfriend who is from a different country. She wanted me to get tested for AIDS before we had sexual contact but I informed her that I was a current blood donor and I have recently donated within the last 2 weeks even. I have not been differed or blocked from donating due too having AIDS, nor have I had sexual contact with anyone that has that. So in this situation does it make sense for me to go and spend money to get tested? Also note, there are no symptoms of the above mentioned aliment.
Male | 29
Even recent blood donations don't negate the need for specific checks. AIDS, an Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, often lacks initial symptoms. Testing reveals any presence with certainty. Undergoing this process demonstrates responsibility, safeguarding your well-being and your partner's.

I had a drink of kombucha not the whole thing just a couple sips I also started a new medication and went for a drug test and it was positive for alcohol I've had a false positive before
Female | 28
Sometimes, kombucha may have teeny-tiny alcohol amounts. It's kinda like a little beer sip. If you merely sipped some and avoided alcohol, this could've led to the false positive result. Before testing, mention any kombucha or meds you've had. That way, they'll account for it when checking results.

I hot bitten by a puppy 1 month and 3 weeks old in my lips, it's been 1 day ago. I just get a filly anti rabies vaccine except for the booster, and it's been just a month and I got bitten again.
Female | 21
Young pups rarely have rabies. But watch for redness, swelling, or pain where it bit. Clean the area with soap and water. Put antibiotic cream on the bites. Keep them clean. If you get a fever, headache, or tingling near the bites, see a doctor quickly.

I am wondering can you do a test for intracellular calcium levels yourself? If the intracellular calcium levels are too high, would that show up in calcium blood test?
Male | 34
You cannot test your cell calcium levels by yourself. High calcium in the cells may not appear in a normal blood test. Too much calcium inside your cells can make you feel weak and tired. It can also make you confused. Some medicines may cause high cell calcium levels. If you have high cell calcium, your doctor may change your medicine or try other treatments.

My hiv test result is .13 and in reference range it is written .9 - 1 is greyzone. Am I positive or negative? I’m confident
Male | 29
Whether it is the case for you or not, the HIV test result is still the same - it is .13 and is in the grey zone of the reference range .9 - 1, which means it is inconclusive. Having this result, however, does not in any way guarantee that you have HIV. Among the symptoms of HIV that may appear are the following: flu, fatigue, and unexplained weight loss. The causes have to do with engaging in unprotected sex or sharing needles. A retest will clarify the situation.

How many times albendazole and lvermicin can I take in a year
Male | 50
Using albendazole or ivermectin improperly can harm your health. A doctor prescribes albendazole one or two times yearly to treat intestinal worms. Meanwhile, ivermectin treats stubborn parasites like scabies or strongyloidiasis once annually. These medicines eliminate parasites causing stomach discomfort, itching, and tiredness.

Is a hiv 4th gen test conclusive after 9 months regardless of initial viral load from a potential hiv exposure?
Male | 24
Even if the initial viral load was high, a 4th generation HIV test gives a very reliable result at 9 months post-exposure. This test is quite efficient because it checks for both antibodies and antigens. This is the way to be highly accurate at that point. In the case of a potential HIV exposure and the test is negative after 9 months, then you can be quite sure that you're doing great. Thus, there is no reason to fear.

Sir/Madam What's your view on DMIT test? Can I undergo through dmit test?
Female | 18
The Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test (DMIT) uses fingerprint analysis to identify an individual’s strengths, weaknesses, learning styles, and personality traits. It’s a safe and painless test aimed at recognizing personal strengths and preferences, rather than diagnosing medical conditions. While it can be insightful, DMIT is not a substitute for medical exams or treatments. If you’re interested and meet the necessary qualifications, you may consider taking the test, but keep in mind its purpose is for self-awareness, not medical evaluation.

Hsv 1+2 igg positive 17.90 index....??
Male | 26
When the test tells you a positive IgG HSV 1+2 of 17.90 the result reveals exposure to the herpes simplex virus. However, this doesn't even indicate the presence of symptoms. Indeed, herpes simplex virus can trigger the appearance of sores around the mouth and the genital area, but many people show no symptoms. If you do have any, antiviral medicines can help control them.
