laryngitis

139126 tn?1255036991 I had a total done in may of 2004. I still cannot yell, or sing anymore. I have gained over 100 lbs, despite working out. I sleep 12 hours a day at least due to being tired all of the time. I have a short term memory loss and have noticed that I don't think as quickly on my feet as I used to. I also have achy joints, and my hair breaks off in the middle crown area of my head. I cannot take any air blowing on my skin either.
Avatar f tn Hi and welcome. Once its healed, a few days after the scab falls off, its no longer contagious. How were you tested for hsv and is it 1 or 2?

Avatar m tn I know the internet provides some possible ways of transmission of hep b and that the virus is 10 times more infectious than hiv. But are there any studies about what are the actual odds based on what is the viral load? E.g. Like if someone has millions of hbv dna it's more likely to be spread by saliva than someone that has thousands of hbv dna Why usually a lower viral load means less chances to infect someone when it all it takes for infection is one viron (correct me if I'm wrong)?

Avatar n tn t get any new wart during a period of 2 years, it is likely that your body has taken control over the virus and you are no more contagious to pass it onto others... If you still get some new warts appearing, it is likely that your body is still in process of handling the virus and you are contagious...
Avatar f tn Hi, I went to ent the other day he used a camera to check my throat hes sent me for ultrasound scan and a CT scan due to a suspicious lump he says he thinks its an abcess or ulcer but couldnt see how big it was, now curious if it is an abcess or ulcer how on earth can it be removed as I have a few of them and antibiotics have never cleared them ?
Avatar m tn Hi, I have 3 indoor cats, all vaccinated. I also care for an outdoor cat that was abandoned a few years ago. I took her in for her vaccinations earlier this year, and give her Frontline monthly. Two days ago, I saw that her inner eyelids were half closed, and it scared me. Took her to the vet, and she had no temperature, and seemed fine otherwise. He ordered bloodwork, and I brought her home and kept her sequestered in the bathroom. He said he didn't think she had anything contagious.

Avatar m tn after exposure to infected partner, how soon is chlamydia contagious to a third partner? 24h? 48h? More?
Avatar m tn thanks for your reply!! I am worried if this is herpes laryngitis/phryngitis since they don't show any symptoms of hsv1 on the lips or in the mouth and it can impact the throat. I also read that some people will not show symptoms if it is GHSV1 (since I had only genetal contacts). Wondering if HSV1 causes directly laryngitis/phryngitis without causing any outbreaks on face or in the mouth !!
Avatar f tn I just finished taking Azithromycin yesterday for what must of been a bacterial infection of my sinuses and lungs. It started as a cold. The cold went away but I was experiencing shortness of breath and post nasal drip that just wasn't subsiding. I went to two doctors. The first doctor prescribed a corticosteroid nasal spray (Omnaris). This helped a bit for the post nasal drip but wasn't addressing the shortness of breath or chronic cough that wasn't going away on its own.
Avatar m tn The only information I can find is only based on the healing process and the status of the scabs, and I can't know that for sure. How long should I wait *to be sure* I don't contract the illness?
Avatar n tn is it safe to use spiriva and advair together my sister has had laryngitis for 4 weeks
Avatar f tn Hi, transient loss of voice and hoarse voice are the typical symptoms of laryngitis. It is inflammation of the larynx (voice box). It is mainly caused by virus and treatment depends on type of virus affected. Even serological tests will help to identify the responsible pathogens. It can be treated with appropriate anti viral.
