Avatar m tn Stupid of me again, I went to a massage parlour again yesterday, had unprotected oral sex, and protected vaginal sex, however, she was on top and after I ejaculated, she got up and I found out that the condom was not on, I think it was slipped don't know when, then I saw the base of the condom hanging out the vaginal of that girl, I really scare now, what is my risk of getting std or hiv. thanks.
Avatar f tn I am really concerned as I engaged in deep tongue kissing with a man I'd just met and was on antibiotics so my tongue was raw from thrush. What is the risk of contracting HIV or Hepatitis with a raw tongue? I also noticed from about an hour afterwards that I had a bad taste in my mouth and my lips and tongue starting burning and still are burning a week later. What could be causing this? My doctor suspects Herpes and I'm on oral Acyclovir. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Avatar f tn He has used thrush creams but his penis reacts to them badly; the tip swells up and gets red.He has also taken oral thrush medication but this doesn't help either. I'm at a loss. I do not suffer the same symptoms apart from HSV outbreaks and thrush. I'd be grateful if you could help. Thanks.
Avatar n tn She said it was possible I have herpes but she not sure so she gave me Acyclovir 400mg for pain. I took it for two days and it doesnt burn when I pee now. Does this mean I have herpes? SN: I have had two boils before after having rough sex.
Avatar f tn t white or swollen and is localized to just the tip of my tongue. I am thinking it could be thrush, because I had a vaginal yeast infection and performed oral sex on my partner after vaginal-penile sex. However, I thought thrush was white and would affect my entire tongue. With it occuring is conjunction with a vaginal outbreak, and an outbreak on my tongue I am inclined to believe it is from herpes. Any thoughts??? I have been applying gentian violet which seems to be helping.
Avatar n tn The only treatment that has worked has been valtrex, if I feel one coming on and I take an acyclovir tablet it will retreat. I have been tested for celiac, and I was negative. Is it possible that it is some other virus that only responds to acyclovir? I still get heaps on the outside of my mouth, but they are only small. The trigger to this whole problem started the day after I kissed someone with a cold sore. Before that I had no mouth issues whatsoever.
Avatar m tn the ones on the bottom of my tounge are long and extend the length of my tounge from bottom to top and look puss filled... these hurt very badly and i havnt been able to eat much in the last 2 weeks... what could it be? how can i treat it?
Avatar m tn My daughter was diagnosed with Behcet's in 2008. Then in 2009 she contracted herpes (hsv2). She is now having an outbreak of herpes (starting to get under control after 2 rounds of valtrex, back on acyclovir for 2 days) and a flare of Behcet's. Prednisone will make the painful vaginal Behcet's lesions go away but will cause another outbreak of herpes. Does anyone have any suggestions? She's about to leave for a required college trip. Thanks.
Avatar m tn on june 2013 i have another ulcers outbreak this time with a fever and its only on top and under my tongue. its mild compare to the first outbreak.i took acyclovir and it help to cure the ulcers. im having second though if it is really herpes. i dont see any blister forming before the ulcers appear.
Avatar f tn My doctor was referring to a study wehre Acyclovir slowed disease progression in HIV by reducing viral load. And so he thought Acyclovir might have a direct effect (even if it is low) on HIV. Maybe he thought that by decreasing viral load antybodies would show up later than in the absence of Acyclovir?
Avatar f tn Burning sore throat started around 08/01/2019 and I thought maybe reflux although atypical for me but started protonix and no relief. Mouth began to burn and tingle and throat continued. Went to ENT and they said maybe thrush, Nystatin mouthwash started, worse 3-days later, 2nd ENT says maybe thrush just based on burning but nothing visually, switches me to a week of diflucan, symptoms persist.
Avatar n tn Once and awhile I will get a migraine often accompanied with with a scalp breakout and I stop taking the Acyclovir and lysine until the pain goes away. Then I resume my acyclovir and lysine. I now rarely have any problems. But I always have to go a week once and a while without my Acyclovir and Lysine. Is the herpes virus simply one of my triggers or is the herpes virus the root cause off all my migraines, I don't know. The pain and breakouts are always hemispheric in nature.
Avatar f tn t painful as such, just very very itchy. I was given acyclovir and some antibiotics too. It took about 5 weeks to clear. I returned and was treated for thrush. Since then about every couple of weeks I get intensely itchy down there just like the first time which I had never experienced before, I use makuna honey and usually it'll sooth and go without blisters.
Avatar n tn Few Lesions (pimple like with red base) come and go everywhere in my body (cheeks, forehead, ear pinna, eyelids, chest, arm, forearm...). I have took acyclovir only for 10 days in October and am suffering a couple of lesions coming up and clearing in few days every now and then. This is companied by random itching occurring in different parts of the body without visible lesions, I also felt some shooting pain for a few seconds (rarely) into my penis.
Avatar n tn It was not typed. I continued to take acyclovir prophylactically. My first IGGs were neg for HSV1 and HSV2. Eventually after 12 months I had a weaky positive IGG for HSV1. I have never had a positive HSV2. On a few occasions when I had sex with the same guy I got symptoms [within 24 hours] with the same discharge and soreness. I am unsure whether I have passed HSV to my regular partner.
Avatar f tn I went to another doctor who told me to stop all medication and sent me to a gynecologist. The gynae said I had a bad case of thrush and I am now taking iodine pessaries. Three days later I have noticed like a sore in my pubic hair but not sure if it's an ingrown hair as there is hair in the centre of it and there isn't any tingling or great pain associated with it. Can you shed any light on what is going on?
Avatar m tn I use acyclovir to and you must know that it doesnt take effect spontaneously especially the first time your using it. It helps relieve the pain though but might take some time to take effect. Just continue use it and youll see the sore will go away within 3-4 days instead of the usual 7-8 days they take to go away.
Avatar f tn s more about your genes as to how often you get recurrences than anything you are doing as far as diet, stress reduction and exercise. Eating healthy , exercising and keeping stress low are always a good idea but honestly they have little to do with how often you get recurrences :( no reason to stop eating chocolate!! It won't decrease your ob's and if you are anything like me, you eating chocolate is some days what keeps you from stabbing people....
Avatar m tn I am taking L-Lysene as a suppressor and only take the Acyclovir at the first sign of an outbreak. I was taking 1000mg Valtrex at onset and then 500mg twice a day and everything was clear in 3 days. To get the same effectiveness from Acyclovir how much should I be taking daily during out breaks? I have tried 600mg Acyc 3 times a day but it takes 7 days to clear up. Please advise.
Avatar n tn correct - he's negative and so are you so no reason to take acyclovir. You don't have any reason to think that you have genital herpes.
