I've got some redness and pain on the spot where I had a Mantoux Test done about two days ago. The redness has spread to roughly 15 mm. Could this mean something I should be concerned about?

View allI recently had sex with a prostitute and even though I was using a condom, it ended up staying inside her after I ejaculated. I went and got an HIV test and it came back negative, but I'm still a bit anxious. Should I consider taking Post Exposure Prophylaxis?

I'm really worried about my brother. He's 21 and had a fever for a long time, and we found out he has TB in his neck. The doctors at the government hospital put him on a treatment with 6 rifampicin pills daily, and after 6 months the node size decreased from 43mm to 29mm. They told him to continue for another month, but after that, they didn't do any follow-up or further checkups before stopping the treatment. Is it normal to stop the treatment without checking if the infection is completely gone or if the node size has decreased more? Should we try to get more checkups to make sure everything's okay?
no donot stop this treatment without consulting your doctor

I'm feeling really anxious and depressed after an experience with an escort where the condom accidentally slipped. I immediately pulled out and put on a new one, but now I'm really worried about my chances of catching HIV or an STD. It's been three days, and I can't stop thinking about it. Can you help ease my mind or let me know what my risks really are?
