I just got my results a few days ago for Herpes 1 and 2. My score from the blood tests say 0.90 on Herpes 1 and I received a 1.04 in 2. I understand that one is clear to be negative but the results for two have me worried. It just says equivocal, to test again. My partner's test came back negative for both 1 and 2. Also I had taken a 300mg of Clindamycin a few days prior to my blood test. This has me worried. What does the test results mean when it comes up equivocal?
t seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin. Clindamycin destroys my stomach though. I avoid cipro and zithromax.
Hello,
Ziana contains clindamycin which is a sort of antibiotic used topically for acne caused by bacterial infection. Herpes is caused by a viral infection and antibiotics are not effective. For viral infections, antiviral drugs are needed.
I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Ok so I had sex with this girl on Saturday. Noticed a little redness of the penis a couple days later but thought nothing of it. My parotid gland connected to my jaw become swollen and in excruciating pain when I ate or yawned. The following say my penis became noticeable more red and itched really bad when I got out of the shower. So I went to the doctor and he basically told me If it gets better it's a fungus, if it gets worse it's herpes. No help there.
Finally, there were no visible sores in her vaginal area so I know this lowers the Herpes risk, but does my being diabetic raise it and if I had gotten HSV 1 or genital type on my mouth how long until sores would appear. Long story, but my girlfriend and I got back together this weekend and I know she wants to have sex and oral is quite important to her.
Alternatively, you can take clindamycin for the bv and drink a boat load of cranberry juice for the UTI and water of course. It will take longer to clear up the UTI but it should work. It did for me in a pinch. It just took a couple of extra days. Of course if you are diabetic you can't.

I was recently diagnosed with a UTI caused by strep type B, and was given Clindamycin for ten days. Shortly after, I noticed several small, wavy skin areas, and when I stretched the head of my penis, they were tiny, flesh or white colored bumps about the size of a pen point.
My anxiety has been through the roof because about two months ago my girlfriend had blisters come up on her vagina, and she was tested for herpes, but all three tests were negative.

heat bag extraorally, and warm salt water intraorally) may help reducing the severity and duration of the condition and i recommend that u stop the clindamycin as the course is usually only one week also,long duration of clindamycin usually causes git problems

Oh by the way the doc said even thou my hsv1 is genital it can still travel up to my mouth? What do you think?
An initial genital herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection can be asymptomatic, and then a recurrent outbreak can first be noticed months or years later. Whether or not people have symptoms with the initial infection depends in part on how closely they are paying attention. Symptoms can be mild, and some people just don't realize anything is wrong even though they have sores, itching, etc.
Your friends are correct. HSV-2 is almost never acquired by oral sex, only HSV-1.

By this time my right breast was also swollen and also had some blisters, although a lot fewer than the left. They gave me clindamycin through IV and both the redness and swelling went down dramatically within 45 minutes. But my culture came back positive for herpes--no typing. I developed a low fever and also a sore throat with a white ulcer in the back of my throat.
I presented with only one sore at my cheekbone and was given clindamycin orally for 14 days and Bactroban ointment for topical use. The sore was believed to be an early indication of MRSA. I quickly developed cellulitis and swelling near, but not touching, the apparent abscess, as well as blisters in my nose. I used the mupiricin.(Bactroban) to keep the nasal blisters moist. Now diagnosed with post-herpetic neuralgia, but I still have blisters in my nose treating with Bactroban.
Prescribed ofloxacin, desonide and clindamycin with no results. Currently halfway through doxycline two week course and showing no real changes.
The redness on top of penis tip changes from bright red when erect to mildy red when relaxed. There is a bright red spot that is about 1mm in size that the redness on tip seems to emanate from. Doctors don't think much of the redness although it is not "normal" because it was not there before. Could this be HPV?
The next day the bumps were much worse and there were a lot more of them coming in. I went back to the clinic and was diagnosed with genital herpes. The pain was horrible, but I was still able to urinate normally at this time with only slight discomfort from the sores.
I started on valtrex, and then the next day when I sat down to pee, nothing came out. I had the sensation that I was about to pee, but nothing would happen.
