I've been dealing with a sore throat that sometimes hurts a bit when I swallow, plus I've got this pain in my left shoulder. I've also been feeling pretty weak for about 5 days now. Should I be worried about this combination of symptoms, and do you think I need to see a doctor?

-It sounds like you're dealing with a combination of a sore throat, shoulder pain, and general weakness. This could be due to a viral infection or even muscle strain, but if it persists, it's a good idea to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

Question

My sister got a small cut with a rusty iron sickle. I'm kind of worried if she needs to get a tetanus shot. The last time she had one was on December 1, 2020, which is over six months ago. The wound is really minor, just a tiny bit of blood when we pressed it, and we cleaned it with Dettol and water. Do you think she should get the injection?

Question

I've had a fever for the past three days, with my temperature fluctuating between 98.6 and 102. I get really cold in the evenings, probably because of the sweating, and I'm worried it's making the fever worse since I don't change my shirt soon enough. I don't have any body, joint, or muscle pain, but my nose is a bit runny and my throat hurts slightly. Could this be something serious, or is there anything specific I should do to get better quickly?

Question

I'm really worried about what's happening with my health lately. Around 20 days ago, I had typhoid without a fever, just mild symptoms. It came with weakness, headaches, and gas, and after a blood test, it was confirmed as typhoid. My doctor said it might have been around for 2-3 months before that. I took antibiotics for 12 days and finished them 5-6 days ago. But yesterday, I started experiencing gas problems and a heavy feeling below my chest. Mornings seem worse with intense weakness, like there's no blood in my body, sleepiness, a slight headache, and pain in both legs. I also have a slight fever, and my anxiety spikes before breakfast, though it calms down a bit after I eat. I'm curious if this is another condition or if the typhoid hasn't cleared up yet. What do you think?
