I'm a bit worried and could use some advice. So, about 20 days ago, I got bitten by a dog and went through the whole rabies vaccination process with the 4 shots. Am I okay to be intimate with my wife now?

View allI've been treated for TB lymph nodes about three years ago and was on medication for 19 months. Since then, I've been healthy and maintaining a good diet. However, just this past month, I noticed a lymph node swelling near my wrist, but it's not painful and I haven't noticed any other symptoms in my body. I'm feeling a bit concerned and just want to know if there's a possibility of the TB lymph nodes returning?

I recently had protected intercourse with a massage therapist I didn't know, and it only lasted about 5 minutes. I'm really concerned and wondering how good condoms are at keeping you safe from HIV, especially since the condom didnt break the whole time. Could you shed some light on this?
mostly no but get it checked once

I recently got tested at Lal Path Labs and found out that both Chlamydia and Herpes came back reactive. I'm unmarried and now I'm confused about whether I should get married or not. Can these diseases be cured? What could happen if these are passed on to a female partner? I'm taking homeopathic medicines right now. I'm really worried about this whole situation.
Your son is due for the IPV and Hib vaccines, but unfortunately, they're not available right now. Don't worry, I've got some advice to help you navigate this situation. Firstly, *delayed vaccination is not ideal, but it's not the end of the world either*. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that kids receive the Hib vaccine at 12-15 months, and the IPV vaccine at 12-18 months . Since your son is already 2 weeks overdue, *you should consult with your doctor to determine the best course of action*. They may recommend alternative vaccination schedules or provide guidance on when the vaccines are likely to become available again. In the meantime, *make sure your son is up-to-date on all other recommended vaccinations*. This will help protect him from other serious diseases. Lastly, *don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor or a vaccination specialist for further guidance*. They can provide personalized advice and help you make informed decisions about your son's vaccination schedule.
