It is only after positive cells enter circulation of negative person problems may happen.
1) may happen
2) whatever is the reason for entering positive cells- chances are more with delivery and very low with pregnancy.

Dear lybrate-user, You are HIV negative.
The doctor is either ignorant or willfully misguiding you. If what you said about the doctor is true, I genuinely doubt about his degree.
Anyways, as your issues are of urgent nature, please take private consult with audio video chat and then we can guide you properly.
Also do HBsAg and VDRL tests.
Take HBV vaccines.
Don't waste time.

Hello sir, I am a 27 year male abinash and I am from nepal. On 17th october 2021 one street dog was in pain because when I was trying to touch her hip area she tried to bite but when touching her head the dog was normal. Then I thought someone hit on her hip area because she can’t even move her so I injected painkiller intramuscularly but accidentally that needle pricked my finger and blood came out. I thoroughly wash it with alcohol sanitizer and took tetanus toxoid but next day dog was died and then I worried and start rabies vaccination from 19 october but unfortunately hrig (human rabies immunoglobulin) was not available and didn’t took it then I continue start to take vaccine (vero cell) intradermal as according to schedule and today is 7th day and I took 3rd dose of anti rabies vaccine without hrig so, my question is just assuming the dog was rabid then anti-rabies vaccine alone will protect me or not. I am very afraid because I didn't take hrig so please give me a suggestion. What further do. Or anti rabies vaccine will be sufficient for me. Please reply to me.

1.A cold compress. A person can apply a cool, damp cloth to the affected area. This can provide relief from itchiness and help reduce inflammation. A cold compress can be used as often as necessary.
2.Bathing in an anti-itch solution. Baking soda baths can soothe skin and reduce irritation. Adding witch hazel to a bath is another effective home remedy.
3.Applying aloe vera. The healing properties of aloe vera may soothe and reduce hives. It is advisable, however, to do a skin test before...more

When the girl with Rh negative blood group delivers the first child she develops antibodies in the blood and which can harm the occurrence of the second child and so for preventing it we give anti-Rh injection within 36 hours of delivery and remember there is no harm to the mother and the living child

Hi lybrate-user,
I appreciate you seeking clarification. Immunotherapy basically aims at improving one's immune system function to fight diseases including cancer. Its otherwise known as biologic therapy and can be classified as either active, passive or hybrid. Stem cell therapy on the other hand, uses stem cells for treatment of diseases including cancer. To exemplify, bone marrow transplant (BMT), allogenic or autologous is essentially a stem cell therapy. Hope this clarifies. Take care.<...more
