Avatar n tn To confirm the presence of HIV infection, the most specific test would be testing for its antibodies with an ELISA test which is a screening test which looks for antibodies in the blood. The antibodies are usually produced within 1-3 months of the infection. If this test is positive as a lot of false positivity exists with this test another more specific test to detect the antibodies is the Western blot test. Sometimes persistent enlargement of the tonsil can sometimes be due to a lymphoma.
Avatar m tn Thank you for responding to my question. It has been 12 days since I had root canal on #14. Took Cipro for 7 days. I'm still feeling lpain/discomfort on #14 and try not to chew on that side of mouth. How long does it for root canal to heal? Can and do root canal fail? What are symptoms of failed root canal. At the time of root canal Endodonist put temporary filled on crown. I have appoint with regular dentist for permanent filling in a week.
Avatar m tn At the beginning of April (2016) I started feeling unwell so I went to the doctors on the 10th of April and was diagnosed with tonsillitis. I was treated with antibiotics and it went away. I was going through a very stressful period in my life and was smoking (never smoked in my life before) and drinking heavily which started around January so I thought this may have caused the tonsillitis. In May I got a bad urine infection and it turned out my ex had given my chlamydia.
Avatar n tn That liquid like ball is edema and depending on how large it is and that it is on the throat, a drain my be necessary. As for the Cipro....there are some very serious risk factors. If your pet has any of the MANY risk factors, giving Cipro can be deadly to your dog. If your pet is under 2 years old (assuming by the weight he is a medium or large breed)....do NOT under any circumstance give Cipro. Please please take your dog to the vet so he is properly treated in a safe and humane way.
Avatar f tn All my symptoms gradually getting worse. Each time iv just been given more antibiotics for tonsillitis none of which seems to help. I have reffered to the hospital to have my tonsilis taken. However when i went to the doctor last week he suggested that when i saw the consultant at the hispital they should consider throat cancer, this worrys me as i am 18, however i did used to smoke heavily and only recently quit and i am a student so i do drink alot.
Avatar n tn Any body can ans what kind of side effects that has cipro to use for long time......
Avatar m tn Saw my doctor because terrible irritation in penis tip, sore testicles and having to urinate all night. No burning when I pee or discharge but significant pain at tip. Doctor did first catch urine test; neg for leuk & nitrates, said it could be prostatis so he gave me 7 days of Cipro. Had a minor surgery a few days later so did not take it. The next week it got even worse, so went to urologist. Same symptoms but worse. Dr. asked if it could be std, I told him I doubt it...
1444860 tn?1284421541 I suffer tonsillitis all my life, I have not taken out my tonsils out, but for 2 weeks straight now I have not being able to swallow properly. My tonsils are swollen which came with a flu too. Please I know I have to go to the doctor to get an antibiotics, but my appointment is not until the 20th of September. I don't remember what type and name of the antibiotics doctors use for tonsillitis besides Penicillin. What can I take in the mean time?
Avatar f tn I'm a little confused, because if there's one thing any doctor should be able to diagnose is advanced tonsillitis. It makes you pretty sick, and it can feel a lot like mono. I had it once and at first it is hard to tell what's going on, but after a week it clearly showed as tonsillitis. Which is what makes me confused, as you've had it for awhile and so docs should have been able to diagnose it by now.
Avatar f tn Tonsillectomy is advised if there is recurrent streptococcal tonsillitis, recurrent peritonsillar abscess and chronic tonsillitis. Recurrent tonsillitis is an indication for tonsillectomy, as the tonsils may harbor the infection which keeps flaring up, or they may develop new infections. Also, sometimes persistent enlargement of the tonsil can sometimes be due to a lymphoma. So, if it is not responding to max, medical treatment, then tonsillectomy is the option.
Avatar m tn Yes you can still feel pain and some slight symptoms even after all seven days, the antibiotic continues to work for a day or so after antibiotics are finished. However if it continues for more than 48 hours after finishing the medicine you should go back to doctor....or if it gets worse. The other thing is you may have a strain that is resistant to amoxicillin and may need to get a different antibiotic altogether. Are you getting better at all? Gargle with warm salt water.
Avatar f tn t respond to sinus pills (or any pills, what are sinus pills by the way). You likely have or had a virus and what you do for a virus is comfort care. That means ibuprofen/acetaminophen for pain relief and inflammation relief, fluids, things like hot tea to sooth, gargle with salt water, those numbing products you spray or su ck on. It should run it's course.
Avatar f tn Also, I am being treated with Cipro, which I just took a round of that for a UT about 2.5 months ago. Should I be repeating the same antibotic so soon, and will it be as effective if I do.
Avatar n tn is it safe to take 125 mg of cipro each day for 6 months I was prescribed this for a UTI that keeps coming back. Also the pharmacy that filled the prescription gave me 250mg tablets and told me they aren't made in 125mg. and for me to break in half . But the info that comes with the meds says not to break.crush, or chew.
Avatar n tn I can understand the antibiotic, but I can't understand the steroid. Kind of odd to mistake tonsillitis for an allergy. The bacteria may be resistant to the antibiotic, otherwise it should have worked by now. I don't know what to suggest that would be efficacious. If it were me I might try using an antiseptic mouthwash and gargling with it.
Avatar f tn Went to the dr in late November for strep throat and a sinus infection, tested negative for strep but I have cobblestone throat and my left tonsil is inflamed. My doctor said I have some pus behind It & I have a small hole on my tonsil as well. My throat does not hurt and I no longer have any symptoms. I have taken both azthromycin and doxycycline. My throat still looks the same. My doctor has said just to keep an eye on it. Should I just go ahead and go to an ENT?
Avatar f tn I Messed Up On My Last Post Lol But I Just Really Wanna Know How Long Does Tonsillitis Last ? I’ve Been On Antibiotics For 5 Days Now &&’ I Feel Great !! I Just Wanted To Know How Long Do It Last ?
Avatar n tn research shows that there can be more tissue damage in adults,blood vessels are larger in caliber, could be more post nasal drip and GERD can occur...
Avatar f tn Hi, I have problems with UTI and kidney infections on a regular basis. I have been on Cipro on and off since 1994. Cipro has allways worked very well for me. I have not experienced side effects from this drug. I have had other antibiotics prescribed to me that did have some negative side effects. In my case Sulfa drugs causes hives. From 1994 up to 2003, I used to come down with UTI and kidney infections that required hospitalizations with a frequency of about every 3 to 4 months.
Avatar f tn And you could have oral thrush and be confusing it with tonsillitis. Go see your doctor and get checked for tonsillitis, and if you have tonsillitis (and if it is the bacterial kind and not the viral kind) when he or she gives you a prescription that will probably take care of both ends.
Avatar n tn About a week ago I found I was having difficulty swallowing, as I knew it would take a while before I could get in to see my regular doctor I went to a walk in clinic. The doctor there looked at my tonsils and told me I had tonsillitis (he also did a throat swab). He said he could see little while bumps on my tonsils and prescribed anti biotics.
Avatar n tn I took 1 dose of 500mg Cipro Friday night at 5:30p.m. Immediately felt flushed and red in the face. I continue to have flare ups 3 days later. How long does this take to go away.
Avatar m tn No symptoms at all. The cipro and biaxin were not for stds, they were for a sinus infection. No pain, no discharge. I did get a yeast infection from the antibiotics, and wondered if that could have managed it's way to my urinary tract...but no burning, nothing like that. All of this seemed to be triggered from my masturbating without and ejaculation over the weekend...
