A dog scratched me two months ago .will I be affected with rabies?

Female | 20

Although a dog's scratch seems small, rabie­s worry is natural. However, if two months passed afte­r the incident, the chance­s are low. Rabies brings feve­r, headaches, and anxiety – signs cause­d by the virus in animal saliva. Still, discussing with a doctor e­ases concerns.

Sir, I had come to you for a consultation (on CGHS referral) in the month of april.i need another specialist consultation,but the referral is from CGHS Delhi branch.can we still come to you or do we need to find an specialist in Delhi only.Please advice.I tried to call MPCT hospital but couldn't get through

Female | 58

A CGHS Delhi referral for a specialist would make sure that your precious time is only spent on the specialist's area of expertise, so in this case, it means you should see a specialist in Delhi. The ideal way is the hassle-free one. Keeping things simple is your advice best taken in the process. Meanwhile, be cautious about any new symptoms or changes that you're witnessing and note them. Also, contacting CGHS Delhi should try to find out about the steps involved with the new doctor and MPCT hospital and get you the proper info.

I am a 32 year old male, i am suffering through cold and flu for past two days, please suggest a prescription to treat this.

Male | 33

Looks like you have the common signs of a viral infection, such as a runny nose, cough, tiredness, and painful throat. These disorders are often caused by the common cold viruses. To reduce the symptoms, non-prescription drugs such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be considered for pain relief, antihistamines for congestion, and plenty of liquids to stay hydrated. Rest is also important for recovery. If symptoms last more than a week or get worse, I advise that you see a healthcare professional for a treatment plan that suits you.

Last night a bat flew over my back and I am afraid it might have bitten me. I didn't feel the bite, but now I feel pain in my left shoulder and nausea. Given the potential risk of rabies, I would like to ask if I should seek medical attention immediately?

Male | 17

You might not experience any symptoms if a bat bit you because their bites can be small. If you feel pain and nausea afterward, especially in your left shoulder, it could be a sign of rabies. Rabies is a serious brain virus that commonly occurs through animal bites. Hence, it is necessary to seek medical help without delay. Rabies may be prevented if treated early, hence, it is better not to take risks.

I'm 36 years old disabled man has muscular dystrophy, 8 days ago a small rat bites in my hand, bite very small, i did my tatenus injection but still confused about what medicine i need to take. Everything is fine but I'm thinking to use medicine so which one?

Male | 36

If a rat bites you, watch out for further developments regarding your muscular dystrophy. If the signs of inflammation of your hand appear such as redness, swelling, warmth, or pus you may require antibiotics which will need to be prescribed by a doctor. Act fast, to avoid complications. Do not be afraid to contact your doctor for any additional instructions.

I have a lump under the skin by my jaw line behind my left ear lobe. What do I do? Idk how long its been there its just getting a little bigger and its getting annoying

Female | 23

Based on the symptoms you mentioned, the lump under the skin could be a swollen lymph node. You should have it examined by a doctor, as it may also be a cyst or something else. I would advise you to consult an ENT specialist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Good evening sir, do you have time to talk with me, i am suffering from tonsils or throat infection

Male | 19

It seems you might have­ tonsillitis. That's when your tonsils get infecte­d and swollen. You'll likely have a re­ally sore throat, making it hard to swallow. Plus, the glands in your neck could swe­ll up too. Tonsillitis usually happens because of viruse­s or bacteria. To feel be­tter soon, take it easy and drink ple­nty of warm liquids like tea or soup. Visit your doctor to get relief from this.

I took immodium and a laxitive and now i feel sick. What should i do

Female | 21

This could be because the combination or the individual medications may have caused an adverse reaction. It's better if you discontinue the use of both tablets to prevent any potential worsening of symptoms. Hydrate yourself and take some rest as well.

Scorpion bites can happen during hot weather as they are more active in warm temperatures, and people might encounter them more frequently during this weather. If you get bitten by a scorpion, seek immediate medical attention as some scorpion species can have venom that may cause severe reactions and symptoms.

Hello, I had a cut on my hand and another person's hand touched my wound. I saw the cut on his hand too, but I didn't feel any moisture after touch. Is it possible for HIV to be transmitted in this way?

Female | 34

HIV spreads mainly from unprote­cted sex, nee­dles, or transfusions. Getting it through touching is very rare­. If there was no blood or fluid, the chance­s are tiny. Symptoms like feve­r, tiredness, swollen glands may occur. But talk to a doctor if you're­ concerned. They can e­ase your worries and maybe te­st you.

I have been having high fever for a few days and yesterday, I visited the doctor. From my blood test, he explained that I don't have a bacterial infection since my Neutrophils level is within the normal range. However, he did prescribe me the antibiotic amoxicillin and today I found out amoxicillin is used to treat bacterial infections. I have already had 4 out of the 21 doses prescribed. I am aware that I need to complete all doses for antibiotics. I want to get a second opinion on whether this antibiotic will really be beneficial for me as right now, I'm just experiencing a lot 9f nausea

Female | 28

You need to finish the whole course of antibiotics prescribed to you. Even if the levels of your Neutrophil are in normal averages, your doctor may have placed you on amoxicillin as a preventive measure. If you experience too much sickness or any other concern with your drug intake, it is better to see your doctor or infectious specialist.
