Can you help me out? I'm really worried! I got vaccinated for rabies, but now I'm feeling really nauseous and I'm scared it might mean something bad. Can rabies still be a concern after vaccination? I'm feeling anxious about it.

View allI'm a bit worried because my dog, who's usually hanging out with street dogs, accidentally gave me a playful bite on my arm. It didn't bleed, just got a bit red and swollen, but that went away the next day. My dog is 3 and a half years old, has had all its vaccinations, and I even got it a booster shot a month before it bit me since it was bitten by a stray. It's been 4 days since then and both of us seem totally fine, and my dog isnt showing any sick signs. I spoke to a pharmacist who gave me a tetanus shot and told me not to worry because my dog had the booster lately. But here's my problemtheres no antirabies injection available anywhere in my town. Should I be concerned about rabies or am I safe to assume we're okay?
Given that your dog has been regularly vaccinated for rabies, including a recent booster dose, and is not displaying any symptoms of illness, the risk of rabies transmission is extremely low. Additionally, since both you and your dog are doing well after 4 days, the likelihood of rabies transmission is further reduced. In this situation, it is not necessary to worry about rabies. Continue to monitor your dog for any changes in behavior or health, and keep an eye on the bite wound for any signs of infection. If the wound shows any concerning symptoms, such as increasing redness, warmth, or discharge, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

Is drinking cold water good for fever?
Cold water either in the form of drinking or tepid sponging helps in controlling core body temperature in fever. Drinking water maintains hydration during the stress of fever on the body. Tepid sponging helps by vasodilating blood vessels and evaportaion technique.

I'm feeling really weak and tired, and I'm having leg pain after my viral fever. The fever's gone after taking a 5-day course of medication like Dolo 650, Azee 500, and Allegra M. But now, whenever I walk around 200 meters, my legs hurt and I feel exhausted. Why is this happening, and what should I do about it?
To help with your symptoms, you can try taking a combination of B complex vitamins and minerals like zinc and magnesium. I recommend taking Supradyn multivitamin once daily for a month to help boost your energy levels and support muscle function. Additionally, you can apply Volini gel locally on the painful areas on your legs for relief. Make sure to get plenty of rest and stay hydrated. If the symptoms persist, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
