[|Human|] Hi. One of my relatives father-in-law had a bypass surgery. He suffers from diabetes as well. His son and daughter-in-law were giving him the doses through syringes (as prescribed), but occasionally the needle got inserted in their fingers as well, like while trying to open the cap of the syringe. Now they fear that the might get infected. They didnt know that they can bleed some blood out to avoid infection. Can they know if they have caught some infection, and possible remedies?
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, All needle pricks are not necessarily infectious. If the individual has any diseases transmitted through blood and body fluids like HIV, Hepatitis or Syphilis can be transmitted through needle prick, provided that if the individual has the infection or incubating the infection. But mostly these organisms are not viable outside the body or body fluids for not more than few seconds. Now post exposure prophylaxis available to prevent such infection, if you take the prophylactic Chat Doctor. Thank you.
