I've been dealing with a cough for the past couple of days, but oddly enough, I don't have any cold symptoms. Can you recommend any medicine, or should I think about seeing a doctor?

I'm experiencing a bit of a strange sensationwhenever I cough, I feel a slight pain in my chest bone. It's not with every cough, just sometimes. I don't have any allergies and I don't smoke or drink, so I'm really puzzled about what's causing this. Could you shed some light on it?

it might due to muscle streching during coughing

I'm dealing with a frequent dry cough and I'm always thirsty. Drinking water helps a bit with my throat irritation, but I'm worried. I have hypertension and diabetes, so I'm wondering if these symptoms are related to my existing conditions. What should I do about this?

I'm a bit worried about a cat bite I got recently. Can you tell me how long the anti-rabies vaccination stays effective? And is it necessary to get a tetanus shot after a cat bite too? I've had some vaccinations before, but I'm not sure if I'm still covered. Would love your thoughts on this.

A full course of Rabies vaccination may provide protection for upto 5 years. Estimation of anti-rabies antibody level in the blood may help in this regard. A single booster dose of rabies vaccine once a year for those at high risk is harmless and may provide adequate protection. Tetanus vaccine is needed when there is open wound. But a single booster dose can be protective for upto 5 years.
