I'm feeling a bit of warmth in my back and sometimes it feels like I have a fever when I touch my neck, but I don't actually feel feverish inside. The heat in my back is noticeable, and I'm struggling to explain it properly. Can you help me understand what might be causing this?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a mild fever. The warmth in your back could be a sign of increased body temperature. I recommend taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed to help reduce the fever and discomfort. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm wondering how long I should wait before getting a tetanus shot. Is it risky if I don't get one soon? I'm really concerned about this and would really appreciate some advice.

After an injury, a tetanus injection should ideally be taken within 24 hours. However, if it has been more than 24 hours since the injury and you are unsure of your vaccination status, it is still recommended to get the injection as soon as possible. Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that can be life-threatening if left untreated, so it is important not to ignore it. The standard tetanus vaccine is called Tdap, and the recommended dosage for adults is a single dose.

I've been experiencing a lot of body heat lately, and it's making my legs burn and my heels hurt. I'm also feeling really fatigued. A couple of months back, I found out my B12 levels were really low. Could the low B12 be linked to this excess heat in my body? Do you have any advice or suggestions for managing these symptoms or any medication that might help?
