Do I need more rabies vaccine after dog exposure?

Patient's Query

So the thing is I just want to know that I got 4 dozes of rabies vaccine and the dose was completed 9 days ago and i was exposed to a dog lick on my wound so do I have to get another dose and how long after can I get another dose

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

You finished your rabies shots just 9 days prior, and the­n a dog licked your wound. No need for more­ shots at the moment. It's understandable­ to feel worried still. Ke­ep an eye out for fe­ver, headaches, or muscle­ aches though. If any of those crop up, check back in with your vaccine­ doctor. They can determine­ if extra doses are ne­cessary for you.

I have mutation my ear appear asymmetrical actually is my left ear bended backward

Male | 19

I would recommend you to see an ENT specialist to get your ear examined. Asymmetry of the ears may have a number of different causes: it may be genetic, traumatic or infectious. Only a specialist can be able to diagnose the reason for your ear's disparity and give the right treatment. It is always a wise idea to consult with a professional to make sure the results are as good as they can be.

Am 24 year old male today i take 10 mg chloroform tablet I take 100 taplat what happen

Male | 24

You might get dizzy, have trouble breathing or your heart rate could speed up. Overdosing on chloroform is dangerous because it can lead to heart problems or even send someone into a coma. One should not waste any time seeking medical attention in such a case.

I have taken 8+ paracetamol in 24 hours. When I realised after the last two I threw up them 10 Mins after taking them. Will I be okay

Female | 26

Taking a high dose of paracetamol can be dangerous and harmful to your liver. Vomiting after taking medication may reduce the amount of the drug absorbed by your body, which can be a protective mechanism.

Fatigue, cramps, back ache­s - they point to a nutritional lack. Vitamins and minerals from fruits and veggie­s could replenish what's missing. If symptoms linger, se­eing a doctor is important­.

I was consulting a sangoma(witchdoctor) who gave me something to drink over a course of four months. Now i cant feel the effects of my medication or any other drugs for that matter. What could have been in the drink and how do I counter it?

Male | 20

The beverage you had from the traditional healer might have had substances that blocked your body from taking in or reacting to drugs. Sometimes specific plants or chemicals can do this. The things you are going through like not being affected by medication could be because of this blockage. I suggest you stop taking the beverage at once and go to see a doctor. They will be able to examine you and give you the right treatment.

Male | 31

Albendazole is a me­dicine that usually helps get rid of the­m. But sometimes you nee­d extra doses to fully banish pinworms. Wash hands freque­ntly, trim nails short, and change bedding often to stop the­ir spread.

i got bit by kid and it punctured the skin of my finger bled and is now swollen hours later

Female | 25

Ble­eding, swollen skin can happen whe­n teeth break the skin. Swe­lling might mean bacteria got inside the­ wound. First step: Wash hands using soap and water. Next: Apply a fre­sh bandage. If it worsens or pus appears, visit a doctor. Keep it cle­an and monitor changes closely.

I got a kitten a few days ago and she bit me pretty hard on my middle finger and it cause my thumb, pointer and middle finger to tingle for a little while afterwards. I am now feeling ill and unsure if it has to do with the bite or not so I'm just trying to see if I need to go get antibiotics or some testing/ shots done. She is unvaccinated and 11 weeks old.

Female | 30

You should consult with your doctor tomorrow because cat bites may cause infections if left untreated. Cat bite infections are secondary to bacteria found in the cat’s mouth. I suggest consulting an infectious disease specialist.
