I'm really worried about this whole HIV testing thing. If I'm getting tested like two months after a possible exposure, is that result considered conclusive, or should I be thinking about getting tested again later just to be sure?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
After 2 months, then hiv test after 6 months is advised to the patient.

View allI've been diagnosed with lichen planus and I've been prescribed Omnacortil 10mg tablets. I'm really curious about what effects or side effects I might experience from taking this medication. Can you shed some light on this for me?
Tablet Omnacortil 10mg contains prednisolone, which is a corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation. In the treatment of lichen planus, Omnacortil 10mg can help reduce itching, redness, and inflammation of the skin lesions. However, it is important to note that long-term use of corticosteroids like prednisolone can have side effects such as weight gain, increased blood sugar levels, increased risk of infections, and thinning of the skin. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration as advised by your healthcare provider to minimize the risk of side effects.

I've been dealing with some itching around my scrotum and penis area, and a urologist said its mild folliculitis baaltod. He suggested using a moisturizer and prescribed me Zocef 500, which I took for three days, then repeated for another three. I've also been applying Fourderm. It's been three weeks now, and while the itching is better, it's not completely gone. What should I do next?
