I've been recovering from typhoid that was diagnosed back on January 16, 2018. I don't have a fever anymore, just a bit of weakness and some leg pain. I'm wondering if it's okay to start working again. Also, is there a chance I'm still contagious? And since my typhoid relapsed after two years, is there any treatment available that could prevent this from happening again?

View allI'm really worried because I was bitten by a dog and someone mentioned it could be rabid. How long should I be on the lookout for symptoms of rabies to show up? I've heard it can vary. Can you tell me what the shortest and longest time frames usually are for most people?
Loose and painful testicles can be concerning. Possible causes: 1. Varicocele (enlarged veins) 2. Hydrocele (fluid accumulation) 3. Epididymitis (inflammation) 4. Testicular torsion (twisted spermatic cord) Nutritional deficiencies are unlikely to be the primary cause. The urologist's assessment and echo test results suggest no underlying structural issues. However, to alleviate symptoms, consider: 1. Wearing supportive underwear 2. Applying warm compresses 3. Managing stress 4. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle Schedule a follow-up with your urologist to re-evaluate and address any concerns.

I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been having. There's swelling in the gland under my jaw at the mandibular angle, and my lymph nodes on the right side of my neck are enlarged. I've been dealing with a discontinuous fever, a headache, and I just can't seem to eat muchIve lost some weight and feel fatigued all the time. I have a history of typhoid, and sometimes I get a sore throat. Theres been a slight decrease in the gland size after some treatment, but Im still concerned. What could this be, and should I be doing anything else?
Considering your wife's fibroid condition, I'll provide a brief overview of the two surgical options: *Myomectomy vs. Hysterectomy* 1. *Myomectomy*: Removes only the fibroids, preserving the uterus. Suitable for women who want to maintain fertility. 2. *Hysterectomy*: Removes the entire uterus, eliminating the risk of future fibroid growth. *Risks Associated with Myomectomy* 1. _Bleeding and hemorrhage_ 2. _Infection_ 3. _Adhesions and scar tissue_ 4. _Fibroid recurrence_ *Recovery Time for Myomectomy* 1. _Hospital stay_: 2-3 days 2. _Recovery time_: 4-6 weeks 3. _Return to normal activities_: 6-8 weeks *Considerations for Your Wife* 1. _Age and fertility desires_: If your wife wants to maintain fertility, myomectomy might be a better option. 2. _Fibroid size and location_: The size and location of the fibroids may impact the complexity of the surgery. 3. _Overall health_: Since your wife's surgical profile is normal, she may be a good candidate for myomectomy.
