Amoxicillin for infected cut

Common Questions and Answers about Amoxicillin for infected cut

amoxil

Avatar n tn The dentist first prescribed amoxicillin for the infection. It has been over ten days, and I have pain and swelling in my lower cheek. Upon calling my dentist, I asked for a stronger antibotic (hence I have a tolerence of amoxicillin due to years of usage) he denied and let me know I needed to have tooth immediately extracted or the infection would spread. I do not have the funds currently this week to get it extracted. I have a prescription for amoxicillin that I have not used.
Avatar f tn Amoxicillin + metronidazole may be more effective than amoxicillin alone. After extraction , amoxicillin, metronidazole, Tylenol, and Advil are effective post op pharmacological intervention, which yields minimal post op discomfort.
Avatar n tn If you were infected, and if the antibiotic worked, within a few hours you probably would not be infectious for another sex partner. And as we already discussed, the chance you were infected was low. I never guarantee anything, but I see no signficant risk for your wife.
Avatar f tn Due to a recent oral sex encounter, I got tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia in the throat. Those swabs were done with the Aptima Combo 2 Assay and came back negative. I took azithromycin and rocephin injection as a precaution (before the swab results came back), and am currently taking Augmentin to get rid of the strep. I was feeling fine and healed until yesterday when my throat started to hurt again.
Avatar m tn Hello... I'm a 29 year old male, and I received unprotected oral sex about 2 1/2 weeks ago from someone I didn't know. I then had unprotected vaginal sex with another partner about 10 days later with no ejaculation. A few days later I developed head congestion and mild throat symptoms along with slight, intermittent throbbing in one testicle. No burning, itching, or discharge. I have also had what I assume is a varicocele for most of my life, but it has never given me any problems.

But when I asked over the phone how much just the check up was he said $42. With the check up and the amoxicillin it came to $44.22... Hoping he gets better soon!
Avatar m tn I had sex last May 16, 2014 with a new escort. She had been in a monogamous relationship for 3 years before entering the trade and said that she has never had unprotected vaginal sex with any other man aside from her ex. We had 2 protected deeds and one unprotected deed lasting 15 to mins. The oral sex was unprotected. She tried to stop me when i entered her but i guess the moment both got us off guard.
Avatar n tn In my opinion, the tiredness is probably related to this persistent infection and the anitbiotic. Are you following up with an ENT Specialist and/or an Allergist for this chronic/persistent sinus infection? This problem could also be allergy-related.
Avatar n tn The next week I had a sore throat (unrelated) and went to my doctor and was given a prescription for amoxicillin. I began taking the amoxicillin 10 days after the encounter. 15 days after the encounter while still taking the amoxicillin, I had sex with my wife. We had sex twice that night, the only time since the encounter. The next week my doctor switched me to clarithromycin for my throat.

Avatar f tn This past Wednesday I had to have a tooth pulled due to it having an infected abscess pressing on the nerve (super painful!), and I was given amoxicillin to fight the rest of the infection. Well, being pregnant, they didn't prescribe any type of pain meds, which I'm fine with, but to add to dealing with the pain, the amoxicillin gave me a yeast infection! So here I am, 30 weeks pregnant, mouth still aching, and a yeast infection to top it all off. This has not been my week at all!
Avatar n tn After receiving unprotected oral sex from a female (male recipient). Someone is prescribed 500mg amoxicillin 3x's daily for 10 days, would this abort the incubation of such std's as Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, or syphilis? The antibiotics were prescribed the day after the encounter (within 24 hours). I've been hearing different things from different sites and its been driving me crazy. Do I need to worry? Thank you.
Avatar f tn She ordered amoxicillin for a week which cleared it right up and he was fine for about a month. At the end of August he started with vague complaints, headache abdominal pain achy muscles. Then he started with a swollen lymph node in his groin severe abdominal pain and high fevers. They diagnosed him with an infected lymph node and cellulitis and put him on Keflex for 10 days. He had a fever for 8 days straight he still has a swollen lymph node.
Avatar f tn its is not possible for amoxicillin to give u a UTI. On the contrary, it may help HEAL an existing UTI. it's possible you have contracted a UTI or something else recently, or the lower back pain etc. are all unrelated and transient problems that may go away on their own. how r u doing now?
Avatar n tn I had a failing dental implant pulled (a tooth on a metal screw) they gave me amoxicillin to take for a few days and I rinsed with warm salt water till day 3 then religiously used mouth wash twice a day. It's been 2 months and I'm 100% fine. Did they give you a temp tooth?
Avatar f tn The only other thing worth mentioning is that in May one of my wisdom teeth became infected, and I was put on 14 days of amoxicillin. Once that cleared up, I had my wisdom teeth taken out on 6/5/12 and then was on amoxicillin for another 10 days. I cannot really remember if the symptoms began after the surgery or before, but it was very very close in the time frame.
Avatar n tn Well, surprise, surprise the nail was infected within the week. After amoxicillin ran out we put her on Clavamox. Anti-biotics for 3 weeks, and still infected. I finally took my dog to my previous Vet who gave me Cephalexin anti-biotic, and told me to soak her toenail in a hot/warm Epson Salt solution twice a day- 1 cup of Epson Salt : 1 cup hot/warm water. That Epson Salt totally did the trick- dried it right out within 1 week.
Avatar f tn Which I am sceptical because when I took Amoxicillin it was 1 a day pill for a week and as soon as i took it the bacteria was going away. Now I've taken Clindamycin like 5 times, because it's 1 pill ever 6 hours. There is 28 pills in total. But I don't see the bacteria fading, like the Amoxicillin.
Avatar m tn ployri bacterial infection, so I was taking 2000mg of amoxicillin a day and 1500mg of clarithromycin (bactrim) for a course of 7 days. The girl I had sex with contacted me yesterday to tell me she has been diagnosed with chlamydia. If I did catch this first of all would this medication have cured me? Also, I had urinalysis dipsticks in the house and tested myself to see if I had UTI symptoms caused by possible chlamydia (white blood cells in urine, nitrates, etc) and it was all clear.
Avatar m tn May 15 I developed an abscess. They can't get me in to get the 2 teeth pulled until June 25th. The next day, my cheek was the size of a baseball and the meds weren't helping. I went to th ER. Dr numbed it, cut a slit in it, gave me dilaudid &zophran, &sent me home with vicodin. RELIEF! June 3 it was back. I went to the dentist June 5. He couldn't see me. They called in 825mg amoxicillin 2x a day &the weakest dose of vicodin.
