I've been running a fever since last night and took sumo tablets twice, but it hasn't gone away. Should I start taking an antibiotic along with the sumo, or just stick to the sumo for now? I'm not sure what's best.

View allI'm really worried about what's happening with my health lately. Around 20 days ago, I had typhoid without a fever, just mild symptoms. It came with weakness, headaches, and gas, and after a blood test, it was confirmed as typhoid. My doctor said it might have been around for 2-3 months before that. I took antibiotics for 12 days and finished them 5-6 days ago. But yesterday, I started experiencing gas problems and a heavy feeling below my chest. Mornings seem worse with intense weakness, like there's no blood in my body, sleepiness, a slight headache, and pain in both legs. I also have a slight fever, and my anxiety spikes before breakfast, though it calms down a bit after I eat. I'm curious if this is another condition or if the typhoid hasn't cleared up yet. What do you think?
It is possible that your symptoms could be related to the typhoid infection not being completely cured. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a proton pump inhibitor like Pantoprazole 40mg once daily before breakfast to help with the gas problem and congestion below the chest area. Additionally, you can take a multivitamin supplement like Becosules capsule once daily after breakfast to help with the weakness and sleepiness. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your doctor for further management.

I'm supposed to take an albendazole 400 mg tablet and Im just not sure how to do it. Am I supposed to swallow it with water, or should I be chewing it like candy? I'm a bit confused and would love some clarity on this.

I'm kind of worried about a small wound on my finger. I'm not sure if it's from my dog biting or scratching me while we were playing. I even saw a little blood near my dog's nose, which made me start thinking. I read online that rabies symptoms can take 2-3 weeks to show up. Should I be concerned about rabies or get it checked by a doctor?
Since you are unsure if it was a dog bite or scratch, it's important to clean the wound thoroughly with soap and water. To be safe, you should consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and possible rabies vaccination. In the meantime, you can take a tetanus shot to prevent any infection from developing.
