Can I take gas medicine on an empty stomach? I've been having a fever since yesterday, and I've been taking paracetamol 500 mg, but my temperature is still 100.7. Should I be concerned about mixing these meds, or is there anything else I should be doing?

Question

A cat tried to bite me, and while I managed to pull my hand away, there was still a bit of contact with its teeth. There was hardly any pressure, so I didnt get a cut or even a scratch. I washed my hand and put spirit on it. Is that all I need to do, or is there anything else I should be concerned about?

Question

I'm really confused about my situationI've been feeling weak for the past two weeks. When I went to the doctor, they said it's likely a viral infection. But I'm also dealing with congestion in my head and ears, like there's something similar to a cough. After five days of taking meds, nothing's changed. The doc suggested a blood and urine test; everything came out normal except my S Typhi O levels, which are 1160 positive. Does this mean I have typhoid? I'm not running a fever, though, my temperature is just around 97. Could this still be typhoid even without a fever?

Question

I'm a bit worried because my pet dog just bit me and the wound is bleeding. The dog is up to date with all its vaccinations, but I'm still concerned. Do I really need to go for a rabies shot, or am I safe since the dog is vaccinated?
