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.

Ployuria and urgency seems to be due to high blood sugar which can be managed with diet control and exercise. But it is better to get urine r/m and c/s test done to rule out urinary tract infection.
Please consult an Urologist for echogenic gravel and hyperechoic lesion.

There are many myths about masturbation. Even though many of these have been debunked several times, they seem to resurface time and time again.
Most claims about masturbation are not backed up by science. There is often no scientific evidence to show that masturbation causes any of the adverse effects suggested. Masturbation will not cause:
blindness

impotence later in life

If your grandmother is not hiv positive or hepatitis b/c positive you don't need to worry. If you had a tetanus toxoid injection during past 5 years you don't need a dose. What you need to work upon is your weight because you are very obese.
