Can I still go to the gym while I'm getting anti-rabies treatment? A dog bit me, and I've finished 2 days of the vaccine, with 2 more to go. Is it okay to continue my workouts and take whey protein during this time? Would love your advice.

  1. Physical Activity:

    • Moderate exercise, like gym workouts, is generally safe during anti-rabies vaccination if you feel well and have no side effects such as fever or fatigue.
  2. Whey Protein:

    • Whey protein supplements do not interfere with the vaccine's effectiveness and are usually safe unless you have allergies or kidney issues.
  3. Monitoring Symptoms:

    • Listen to your body. If you experience severe fatigue, swelling, or allergic reactions, avoid strenuous exercise and consult your healthcare provider.

Overall, maintaining a balanced routine with moderate exercise and proper nutrition is acceptable during your vaccination period. Always prioritize your health and consult your doctor if unsure.

I recently did a Dengue test, and my Dengue IGM came back positive, but the Ns1 Antigen and IgG were negative. What does this mean for my health, and what should be my next steps? Should I be concerned?

Since your Dengue IgM test is positive, it indicates a recent infection with the Dengue virus. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. You can take Paracetamol 500mg every 6 hours as needed for fever and body aches. Additionally, you should monitor your platelet count regularly and seek medical attention if you experience any warning signs such as persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, or bleeding.

I'm really worried about the test results. The Widal test came back positive with Typhi O at 140, Typhi H at 180, and both Typhi AH and BH at 120. I'm not sure if this points to typhoid or malaria. Could you help me understand what these results mean?

Widal test results indicate a positive result for typhoid fever. The positive results for Typhi O and Typhi H suggest a recent or current infection with Salmonella typhi bacteria. To treat typhoid fever, I recommend a course of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest during the treatment period. Remember to consult a physician before starting any new medication.

I'm really concerned about something. So, my mom developed this boil on her neck about six months back, and apart from that, she didnt have any other symptoms. We decided to consult a doctor, who suggested a Mantoux test. But heres the thingthe lab technician seemed really new and injected the liquid deep inside her hand, not just under the top layer of skin. After three days, it turned red. The doctor then recommended TB treatment based on the result, even though she wasn't showing any other TB symptoms. With the lockdown kicking in, we couldn't start the treatment for three months. When things opened up, we went back to the doctor, and they suggested another Mantoux test since quite some time had passed. This time, at a different lab, the technician did it right on the outer layer, and it came back negative. Thankfully, the doctor said we didnt need to start any treatment. This whole experience has been pretty confusing, and I'm not sure what to think now. Can a Mantoux test be inaccurate sometimes, or could this have been a mistake due to the technique used?

do alternative test like CBNAAT
