Hey, I'm trying to understand more about STDs. Could you explain which ones can be treated and which can't? Also, what options do I have in Mumbai for getting tested? I want to make sure I choose the best package for diagnosis. Any advice would be really helpful!

Ear pain after vomiting due to acidity can be uncomfortable.
Possible causes:

To alleviate symptoms:
- Apply a warm compress to the affected ear

View allI'm really worried about the accuracy of the HIV DUO test, specifically the 4th generation test. Is it really reliable if taken 28 days after exposure? I'm struggling with anxiety over this, and I just need some clarity. Can you help me understand how accurate these results might be?
HIV DUO Test (4th generation test) is highly accurate and reliable after 28 days of exposure. It can detect both HIV antigens and antibodies, providing accurate results earlier than previous generation tests. It is recommended to repeat the test after 3 months for confirmation.

I've been having a fever for the past 78 days, and my temperature's been hanging around 98.6 to 99 degrees Celsius. I was on antibiotics after seeing a doctor, but with my recent blood test, it says S. typhi H is positive at 180. Even with the medication from the doctor, my fever is still at 99 degrees. Can you please tell me what's going on or what I should do next?

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with typhoid fever for about a month now and I'm on antibiotics, but around 10 days ago I developed a sore throat and it's just not getting any better. Can you please give me some advice on what's going on with my sore throat? I'm really concerned about it.
Sore throat is usually not related to Typhoid but may occur. Please see a doctor who will examine your throat and advise you accordingly.
