Common Questions and Answers about Cipro sinus infection

cipro

Avatar f tn Did your doctor prescribe the cipro for your sinus infection? Usually, if you did not suffer any side effect last time you took it, it is likely that you will not be suffering any this time. Ciprofloxacin belongs to a class of medicines called quinolone antibiotics. This is indicated for bacterial infection and it works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Talk to your doctor for proper management. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Your symptoms could be due to a post nasal drip, which can cause a chronic irritation in the throat. This could be due to a sinus infection, a cold or a chronic allergy. It could be sinusitis, if it is accompanied by nasal stuffiness and facial pain or pressure. Post nasal drip could also be due to allergens. These are substances like pollen, dust, animal dander, certain foods, insect venoms and certain medications.
Avatar f tn I was given cipro 500 mg twice a day for a sinus infection. After completing the prescription, I still had a sinus infection and ended up in the ER with an upper respiratory tract infection and gastritis. I now have an equilibrium problem to go along with the upper respiratory infection and the gastritis. I don't know what to do st this point. Too afraid to take anything. Can someone give me some advice.
Avatar n tn I have a sinus infection and my doctor prescribed Cipro on Wednesday. I was unable to get it filled until Thursday, during which time the infection seemed to spread to my lungs. Since then, I have taken it regularly and been very careful about what times I take it. Instead of getting any better, I seem to be getting sicker. How long should I give the Cipro before calling the doctor?
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...
Avatar n tn Ok about a week ago I had a sinus infection. For two days i took some Keflex twice a day that I had left over. It wasnt helping , I found a bottle of cipro I had left over and I took one. Thats it. A few days ago my boyfriend starts having symptoms of chlamydia or gonnerea ureathra hurting, discharge etc. I have no symptoms. We have only slept together once in the last couple weeks. Anyways, I went and got tested and I have bacterial vaginosis. I have not been with anybody but him.
Avatar m tn Hi, Me: 23yrs, gay, male Since November, I've had 4 male partners and have never had a 'high' risk exposure, but I'm still very worried and anxious. What would be my risk of having HIV considering this time line? ... November 3rd- briefly gave unprotected oral, but no ejaculation (2-3 minutes). Briefly received protected anal penetration, but no ejaculation (2-3 minutes).

1168718 tn?1464983535 ve only taken Cipro once and had no issues. It did the trick for getting rid of the never-ending/re-occurring sinus infection that I had.
Avatar m tn right after it happened I had one course of a z-pack and now I am on Cipro..both for sinus infection. Is there anyway I could have caught an STD also..I have also had a constant tingling in my penis...it is more just discomfort when urinating or ejaculating. HELP!!!
Avatar m tn At the time i had a sinus infection and completed a course of Azithromycin. The Azithromycin did not clear the sinus infection so i was put on Cefdinir at 300 mg twice a day for one week. My hope was that if i had anything one of these two antibiotics would clear it up. Yesterday i went to doctor due to still having the burning after urination. I was given a pee test and then prescibed 10 days of Cipro 500 mg twice a day.
Avatar n tn I read here all the time, but today I have a question. I have sinus infection and the doc has me on 1000 mg of Cipro (antibiotic) and a script nasal spray. I am also taking 1000 mg of Riba along with my injection of 135 µ of Pegetron. Now to add to this I’m on 10 mg of Citolpram (anti-d) and ½ sleeping tablet (3.5 mg), Zopiclone. My liver biopsy was very good prior to tx. How much drugs can a poor liver handle?
Avatar f tn If your sinus infection is in the upper sinuses, it will block your olfactories. All the stuff you tried often doesn't work, here's why http://www.medhelp.org/user_journals/show/2322 The Flip-Turn Sinus Flush is mildly risky, because you have to bend over to do it, preferably in a shower, but you can also do it outside on soft ground, or you can kneel down and lean over a bathtub, or perhaps a plastic basin or tub, with the shower running for steam.
Avatar f tn I had sinus surgery about 5 months ago and they diagnosed me with psudemonas and no seems to be able to help me, can you?
276730 tn?1327962946 Mine is mostly sinus/throat/upper respiratory stuff and a nasty UTI. Before TX I got frequent sinus infections, too - I'm on allergy meds and injections as well as cipro, allergy meds, nexium, TX meds - interferon and riba wreak havoc on the immune system.
Avatar f tn After over 5 yr's of constant mucus brought on after a bad sinus infection, its like dejavu I'm trying to get rid of another sinus infec. Recently I caught a very bad "cold" or bacterial or viral infec. I have been on antibiotics and I have gotten some changes in the amount of Green and discolored mucus. I just can't shake this it is confusing for me since the antibiotic's do help while I'm on them, but when stopped it comes back full force.
Avatar f tn I agree with you that it does sound like a bladder or urinary tract infection but I just had it checked and it was clear. I am actually on cipro for a sinus infection. I have heard of one case where breast cancer had spread to bladder but I wanted to hear if more cases had occured. I am checking with urologist tomorrow. It is just strange that I have pain and infection symptoms 24/7 even when I don't have an infection. I knew the breast cancer spreads to brain, liver lung bone and all.
Avatar m tn That was about nine months ago. However, in the weeks before the testing I was treated for a bad chronic sinus infection with several weeks of antibiotic therapy. About a week ago I went to my urologist because of much more frequent urination, including a strong feeling of urgency a few times. I also have what seems like a mild case of urethritis. I've noticed occasional twinges of pain in the tip of my penis, but there has been no discharge and it does not burn when I urinate.
Avatar f tn Any positive feedback on taking Cipro? Diagnosed with bladder infection. Took first dose this morning. Scared to take second after reading all bad stuff. The only thing I feel is a little tingly in arm and hand.
Avatar f tn This can reduce the swelling in your sinuses, helping them to drain more freely and may help to resolve the infection. If the viral sinus infection does not resolve itself, a bacterial infection may set in and abx may be needed. If you don't see improvement, I second Dame as far as seeing an ENT.
Avatar m tn I too have sinus problems and am actually currently fighting yet another infection. I too grow out pseudomonas and yeast on occasion. I do sinus rinses with a saline solution, that seems to help. I also take antibiotics that are adjusted once culture results come in.
Avatar m tn I took the Cipro for 9 days as antibiotics give me a bad yeast infection. I felt better and the doctor told me that 9 days was enough and to stop the Cipro. I treated the yeast infection with Ketokonozole 2%, (I am uncircumsized) My original diagnosis was 29 days after exposure. I also had a chlamydia, gonnearea, and HIV tests done at this time, all came back negative! At this point the pain stopped. A week later, the pain returned but ths time it was only in my urethra.
Avatar m tn Could be a pinched nerve in your neck or back, an ear infection, sinus problems, a concussion, whiplash, trouble with your vision, a blocked septum in your nose... the list goes on. I would suggest seeing your doctor for a complete physical. Wishing you the best...
Avatar n tn I have had no symptoms afterwards. About 10 days later I was put on Cipro (10 days 2x 500mg) for a bad sinus infection and then Zithromax (1x a day 500mg) for 5 days as the cipro didnt work. I have been sickened with fear that I am going to pass something to my wife and have abstained from sex for the past month. I have no symptoms to speak of except for the anxiety I have self inflicted upon myself. I have read the other discussions and am most concerned with syphilis. Please help.
Avatar m tn Resently Doctor decided to take Urine test and found bladder infection and gave me CIPRO as an antibiotic. I feel rush under my ribs and pain in the back (right side). Do you think that this infection can cause that? I am still taking this CIPRO things and hope that this'll help. Do you know if lymph nodes can case pain or infection could go up from bladder and affect other areas? Please help!
