I'm a bit worried about my Widal test results. The report shows Typhi O at 1160, Typhi H at 1180, Para Typhi AH at 140, and Para Typhi BH at 120. What do these numbers mean? Should I be concerned about these levels?

Morning fevers can be caused by various factors, including infections, inflammation, or hormonal imbalances. The fatigue and heavy-headedness may indicate a lingering infection, sinusitis, or even anemia. Consult a primary care physician to rule out underlying conditions. Blood tests, such as a complete blood count (CBC), may help identify the cause.

View allI had unprotected sex about three months ago, and while I haven't noticed any specific issues, I'm a bit worried and want to make sure I don't have any STDs or STIs. What tests should I get? Are there any good labs in Bangalore for this? And how often should I be getting tested?

I'm really worried about a situation that happened about a week ago. I had an encounter with a commercial sex worker where I was grinding, rubbing, and poking her nude vagina for around two minutes. I had my underwear on, and there was a release of precum, while she was completely naked. She mentioned that she experienced a leakage of fluids. I'm concerned about the possibility of her fluids getting through my underwear and reaching my urethra. Is there a risk of HIV or any STDs being transmitted through this kind of contact, even with my underwear on? Should I consider getting tested, or am I overthinking? I've read some things online saying it might be nothing, but I would really appreciate your advice.
You do not need to worry about HIV transmission in this scenario, as the virus does not pass through intact fabric like underwear. Naked frottage (grinding without penetration) carries an extremely low to negligible risk for HIV. However, if you're anxious, you can do an **HIV test (4th generation)** after 4 weeks for peace of mind and rule out other STDs with a routine panel. Rest assured, your described exposure is highly unlikely to result in any infection.

I just got my dad's blood test report and it says IGG is negative, IGM is positive, and the NS1 antigen is negative. I'm kind of worried and wondering, does this mean he might have Dengue virus? Could you help me understand these results?
