Can safe sex prevent genital herpes spread?
Hello doctor,
I had sex with my boyfriend a few months ago. I noticed tiny bumps on his private parts, but I did not think I would get them. It started as one bump that had pus, but it burst. Now I am left with small bumps in the opening of my vagina or vulva and around my buttocks as well.
Please help.
Thank you.

Can maintaining good hygiene and avoiding harsh products soothe the irritated anus?
Hello doctor,
I am 35 years old, but something has been happening with my body for the past year. I used to go to sleep with my anus or rectum dry, but after waking up in the morning, I found that it was wet and my finger could enter my anus freely with a foul smell. I have not used any medication for this yet, and I do not think it is hemorrhoids.
Please help.
Thank you.

What are the risks of swine influenza for pig farm workers?
Hello doctor,
As an experienced employee on a pig farm, I am growing increasingly concerned about the potential risks associated with swine influenza. I would appreciate a comprehensive explanation of the swine influenza virus, its transmission, and the specific hazards involved in working closely with pigs. Additionally,I am curious about whether swine influenza can affect my grandchildren. I am particularly interested in practical preventive healthcare practices that can safeguard the health of both the farm's pigs and myself.
To minimize the risk of swine influenza transmission, are there recommended immunizations, hygienic measures, or other preventive steps for individuals working in close proximity to pigs? Furthermore, considering my age of 59, are there any age-related factors or additional safety measures that I should be aware of? Kindly help.
Thank you.

What could cause a delay in period after unprotected sex?
Hello doctor,
I missed my period on the date it was supposed to be. I am afraid that I might be pregnant because we had unprotected sex but my partner did not ejaculate.
