Rabies exposure through bats

How to know that whether bat had bitten you while you were asleep cause I have read that bats give microscopic bite and we can't able to feel it it also leave such a small mark that it disappear on it's own. So suppose a bat bite you and then it went outside your home then how will you get to know that you are exposed to rabies.

Low-Normal Testosterone – Need Medicines

Hello Doctor, I am a 24-year-old male. My height is 5'9" (175 cm), my weight is 100 kg, and my BMI is 32.6 kg/m². My recent fasting morning total testosterone level is 321 ng/dL (reference range: 249–836 ng/dL). Although it is within the normal range, it seems low for my age. My HbA1c is 5.7%. Do I need any further evaluation? Do I need any treatment, medicine, or supplements? I have attached my testosterone report. Please advise.

Need your suggestion

Dear Doctor, I also have another concern regarding my sexual health. Whenever I have sexual thoughts or become sexually aroused, a small amount of clear fluid (pre-ejaculate/precum) is released from my penis. I usually stop the arousal by diverting my mind before ejaculation because I want to avoid the odor and stains that occur after ejaculation. Is it medically normal to stop at the pre-ejaculate stage, or is it better to allow ejaculation to occur? Could repeatedly suppressing sexual arousal before ejaculation have any harmful effects on my health or contribute to any urinary, prostate, or sexual problems? Thank you for your guidance.

Shortness of breath, excessive yawn

Hi doctors. Since yesterday, I've been feeling like I can't take deep breaths, even while standing and doing basic tasks like showering. I have been diagnosed with allergy, PCOD, GERD, migraines and was also given anxiety medications once. I try to take deep breaths and end up yawning, or getting incomplete yawns. Day before yesterday, at night, I had a stressful event with my family, which ended in me crying for an hour or so. Please advise on how to feel better, as this is really bothering me. All my focus is now on trying to take a full breath, instead of my other tasks.
