Patient asked followup Question: 12 years ago

Puppy street dog bit my mother aged 58,no treatment sofar after 20 days want to provide treatment.help.

Hi,

However 20 days is a very long period but you should still take a tetanus injection and ARV (Anti Rabies Vaccination) for prevention. The effect is reduced but still has preventive effects.

Usually if blood loss is there after dog bite then rabies serum also has to be taken. But that is taken only in 72 hours,so now that injection has no use.

But still ARV and tetanus is recommended.

Feel free to ask further questions.

Patient asked followup Question: 12 years ago

Dr.Madan , only for my information sake what should be the dose and quantity and can I ask for a single dose of ARV with the physician so which brand is prefered.after the tetanus ARV , when further diagnosis has to be done and which tests.thankyou.

Hi,

The brand does not matter I believe. However I have used only rabipur. Diet does not matter after ARV or tetanus.

And no there no single ARV. It is a combination of 5 dose injection which is taken as follows (0,3,7,14,28) these represent as days.

No further test needs to be done for now.

i am taking the anti rabies vaccine due to bitten by 8 week old puppy . i have already taken 3rd does of the anti rabies vaccine ,today while playing with my dog i again get a cut. so what should i do?

  Doctor's Answer

Hi, The injections vaxirab you have taken is not a ARS .It is a vaccine and these are two different thing. Usually ARS is given at the site of dog bite where the dog has bitten you. if you have had bleeding from the place where dog has bitten you then yo may go for ARS (it is a serum,not vaccine) available at many government hospitals in India. ARS is a single dose and multiple doses are not needed. ...

Hi.. Im 24 yr old male. i have an habit of masturbation. i think in my school 8th class i did masturbation first time. After a year it became a habit for me. i’m very much ashamed of having this habit. After doing masturbation, I hate myself that I cant control it. I think to control doing next time, but finally again I do it. From that time to till now I cant stop this habit. So more or less I masturbate twice a week anyway and in rare cases thrice a week. Accidentally during my college time I watched some programs in tv saying that masturbation causes not able to do sexual intercourse with partner. It causes not able to give a baby after marriage. After seeing that type of programs I got very much afraid of my life. Before two years I did laser eye surgery. Before surgery they did all pre-test for me. Then they said that your nerves are weak so we need to do two more extra test. After that extra test doctor said that we can do the surgery there’s nothing problem regarding the nerve weakness. I Think may be its family gene problem having nerve weakness. Maybe your grandfather too could had nerve weakness in his life. And now after two years of eye surgery I didn’t face any problems. As doctor said my nerves are weak in my body from my small age.After masturbating all these days I feel my nerves got more weak than before. I don’t know whether it is due to masturbation.But nowadays after masturbation I get head pain back side sometimes and not everytime. Anyway I feel nerves are weak in my body.I’m afraid very much that I cant do sexual intercourse with my partner if I get married. I’m afraid that I cant make my wife pregnant after my marriage. Please help me can I make a baby with sexual intercourse after my marriage? Do I’ve to get any treatment regarding sexual or regarding my nerve weakness or do I’ve to check whether can I make a baby with good sexual intercourse??

Hi, Fatigue means thakaan or to get tired easily,the symptoms you described are not of nerve weakness.Rest other symptoms are very normal things which many people might face and it is difficult to comment may be there is some thing locally on your back which might be irritating you or may be some kind of allergy. If you really feel that way when you masturbate then get your self checked up to a nearest doctor and he might have to do investigation and various tests to confirm if everything is fi ...
