Question

I'm really worried because I got bitten by a bat about a month ago and I didn't get the rabies vaccine. Do bats carry rabies? Should I be concerned?

Question

I'm really worried because my recent culture reports for urine and sputum showed the presence of Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria. What does this mean exactly, and how serious is it? Should I be taking specific medications or follow any particular procedures to address this? What complications could arise if it's not treated properly? I'm not sure how this might affect my health in the long run.

Question

I'm really worried about this breast lump that started during my pregnancy. It turned into sinuses, and the shape changed too. They did an ultrasound and found acute chronic mastitis, but even after antibiotics, nothing helped. Now they've told me it's breast TB, and I'm on medicine for that. Could this really be tuberculosis, or is there a chance it could be something else? I'm really looking for some clarity here, doc.

Question

I've been having a fever for the past 78 days, and my temperature's been hanging around 98.6 to 99 degrees Celsius. I was on antibiotics after seeing a doctor, but with my recent blood test, it says S. typhi H is positive at 180. Even with the medication from the doctor, my fever is still at 99 degrees. Can you please tell me what's going on or what I should do next?
