Question

I noticed an oval-shaped cystic lesion in my left temporal region with a long coiled echogenic structure moving inside it, and my doctor suspects larva migrans. I've been taking Bandy plus tablets and the swelling has reduced a lot, but I'm wondering if I should see a worm specialist to avoid surgery. Which type of doctor should I consult for this?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my rabies shots. I got 5 doses of the anti-rabies vaccine back in January after a dog bite, but turns out the dog didn't have rabies. Recently, another dog scratched my leg with its teeth, leaving just a scratch with a little blood. This happened about 10 days ago on October 1st. Should I get vaccinated again?

Question

I'm on MDR for about 15 months now, and I'm curious about how much longer I'll have to take these meds. Can you also help me with the side effects? I've been having issues with confusion, feeling scared, and sweating a lot, especially when I eat. I'm taking clofazime 100mg, thiomide E 750mg, pyrizamide 2000mg, and moxifloxacin 400mg.

Question
