My mom got the Covishield vaccine for Covid19 about a week ago, and even after 7 days, she's still having a swollen, painful, and tight feeling where she got the shot. We've tried using Thormophob tube and given her zero Dolphy, but it doesn't seem to be getting much better. I'm really worried and could use some advice on what tablet or cream might help. Also, she has Type 2 diabetes, so I'm not sure if that's affecting how she's healing. What can we do to help her feel better?

I'm a bit worried because my pet dog just bit me and the wound is bleeding. The dog is up to date with all its vaccinations, but I'm still concerned. Do I really need to go for a rabies shot, or am I safe since the dog is vaccinated?

If your pet dog is fully vaccinated against rabies, the risk of rabies transmission is low. However, it is still recommended to clean the wound thoroughly with soap and water, apply an antiseptic, and monitor for any signs of infection. Additionally, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
