Flu
Infected needle
I went for a blood test this morning at global pathology center hari Nagar, delhi
I asked the guy taking my sample to use a fresh needle, he told me of course nd even gave me the option to pick packed needle myself from the box if i want bt then i gt a phone call nd i wasn't able to see him actually open the needle or the syring packet
Its a good old pathology center with good reviews on google ...
Is there any chance of them using a infected needle... I am mostly scared of HIV infection as i heard that happens through cross contamination

Paronychia isn't completely treated.
I have swelling in my middle finger after tearing off skin near the nail. Doctor gave antibiotics and sumag bandage on the finger and also drained the blood once.
The swelling subsided but a bit of swelling is still there. It hurts a little bit and I am wondering why it is still there.
Should I stop taking antibiotics because it's already over two weeks.
