I just got bitten by a small rat on my left hand, right in the middle finger, and there was a little bit of blood. I did wash my hand, but I'm not sure if I need to take any medication. What should I do to make sure it's treated properly?

I'm really worried because I accidentally swallowed a spoonful of Dettol liquid. I'm not sure what kind of damage this can cause and how urgently I should get to a hospital. Is it really serious, and what symptoms should I be looking out for?

Dettol liquid can be harmful and may cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and irritation of the mouth and throat. In severe cases, it can lead to chemical burns, difficulty breathing, and damage to internal organs. If someone has ingested Dettol liquid, it is important to seek medical help immediately. The person should go to the hospital as soon as possible for evaluation and treatment. The healthcare provider may need to perform certain interventions to prevent further complications.

I've been feeling pretty off today with a headache and a lot of dizziness. I took a nap and when I woke up, it got worse. I feel really light-headed now, I'm having some trouble breathing, and my heart feels like it's beating really fast. Do you think this could be because of Tylenol? I took it for a fever earlier. What should I do?
