Is exudative granulomatous lymphadenitis something I should be really worried about? I've heard it might be related to tubercular exudate. Is it treated the same way as tuberculosis? I'd really appreciate some advice!

View allMy dog, who is regularly vaccinated for rabies and seems really healthy, bit my husband on the jawline. We quickly took care of it with a bandage and got him injections for pain and tetanus. Its been 12 hours now, and Im a bit on the fence about whether we should go ahead with a rabies vaccination. The doctor didnt particularly insist on it and just gave us some meds for pain and infection to take over the next five days. Do you think we should still go for the rabies shot?
In this situation, since your pet dog is already vaccinated for rabies and is in a healthy condition, the risk of rabies transmission is low. However, rabies is a serious and fatal disease, and it is important to consider the circumstances of the bite. Given that the bite occurred on the jawline, which is a high-risk area for potential transmission to the central nervous system, it is recommended to err on the side of caution and get the rabies vaccination. The rabies vaccination regimen typically involves a series of injections. It is important to follow the advice of your healthcare provider. In addition to the pain and infection medications prescribed for five days, you should also consider getting the rabies vaccination to ensure complete protection against rabies.

I'm really confused and worried because it's been two years and my HIV tests are still negative, but I'm experiencing symptoms like nail lines, oral thrush, itchy and painful lips and tongue, swollen lymph nodes in my neck, and a burning and numb sensation in my legs and hands. Could I be a late seroconverter even though my results are negative? What should I do when my symptoms don't match the test results?
You should test for HIV viral load, and CD4 count.

I'm a bit confused about my Widal test results. The report shows typhi O and typhi H at 180 positives, while paratyphi A and B are both 120 negatives. Does this mean I have typhoid or not? I'm worried and would really appreciate your advice on what these results indicate.
