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.

Female | 15

The foaming mouth sounds bad. Cats don't ge­t rabies if they're inside­. Poison may cause foaming. You should take your cat to the ve­t, to check what's wrong. I'm glad you're being care­ful about your health. If you feel unwe­ll, you should see a doctor too. It's smart to be safe­ about illness.

I think i have skin cancer but i don’t know how to tell

Female | 14

If you suspect skin cancer, consult a dermatologist. Monitor any changes in moles or spots using the ABCDE rule. Take photos for documentation and avoid self diagnosis. A dermatologist can perform a thorough examination and potentially conduct a biopsy if necessary. Early detection is key for successful treatment.

And then he started with antibiotics augmentin dds suspension , Lenovil and calpol for 5 days, and still fever was not reduced since 3 days over. And yesterday again I visisted the doctor and they said to give Anti-Flu syrup, if the temperature goes at 103 degree. I am so tensed and worried. My Doubt is we have to give anti-flu only if the temperature is at 103 or we can give now. I am more tensed and worried as she is 3 years old.
