I had an episiotomy during childbirth about 3.5 years ago, and since then, a large piece of flesh was accidentally cut. It took a really long time to heal. Around 1.5 years after delivery, I noticed a small gland about the size of a cumin seed, and that's where the pain started. It has grown a lot, and now it's about 2 inches long. The pain is constant and gets worse after my menstrual cycle. Could you advise on what might be going on and which consultant I should see? I'm a bit worried.
Dog Bite from Fully Vaccinated Dog _General Guidelines_ 1. _Low risk_: Since your dog is fully vaccinated, the risk of rabies transmission is low. 2. _Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP)_: However, it's essential to take precautions to minimize the risk of rabies transmission. _Recommended Actions_ 1. _Wash the wound_: Immediately wash the bite wound with soap and water. 2. _Apply antiseptic_: Apply an antiseptic cream or solution to the wound. 3. _Monitor your dog's behavior_: Keep a close eye on your dog's behavior for the next 10-14 days. If your dog shows any signs of illness or unusual behavior, seek veterinary attention immediately. 4. _Consult a doctor_: As a precautionary measure, consult a doctor to assess the risk of rabies transmission. They may recommend: a. _Observation_: Monitoring your condition for a few days to ensure no symptoms develop. b. _PEP_: Administering post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) as a precautionary measure, although this is unlikely given your dog's vaccination status. _Rabies Vaccination_ 1. _Unlikely necessary_: Given your dog's full vaccination status, rabies vaccination for you is unlikely necessary.

I'm having this ongoing pain around my breast and underarm, mostly on the right side, and it's been happening for about 4 months now. It initially started with pain on the right side of my chest, and sometimes I even get nipple pain. There aren't any lumps or swelling, no redness, fever, or changes in shape. I had an X-ray and that came back normal. I also have sinus problems and my Vitamin D3 level is at 21. I'm not experiencing any breathing issues. Could you please help me figure out what's going on?
take one painkiller and one antacid
