Common Questions and Answers about Itchy throat for weeks

itchy

Avatar f tn Hey. I have been experiencing a sore throat for five weeks now. It is not painful what so ever. It's red and inflamed back in my throat and there are obvious red spots on throat. Sometimes white builds ups on there. Sometimes I will get a rash that comes up for a few minutes then go away. Those are the only symptoms I can think of. The doctor tested for strep and it was negative. I do have seasonal allergies and was wondering why I have a sore throat for so long.
Avatar f tn A few days went by and the sore throat subsided, I was left with post nasal drip, itchy throat, cough and a congestion for another week. Then everything subsided except the cough. Here I am at the 3 week mark and though the cough has subsided ( I still cough occasionally, dry non-productive like before) my throat is super dry and the itch in the back of the throat is worse, I check in the mirror and see white patches in the back of my throat! not good.. What is going on??
Avatar m tn 9 weeks ago, I had an exposure that includes multiple risks; vaginal protected sex, unprotected oral sex with no ejaculation, I received 2 love bites which left marks on my neck and shoulder for a couple of days, and I suspect that the girl whom I had sex with used my toothbrush. I asked her whether she did that but she said no (I hope she didn't lie about that). Anyhow, 2 days before my exposure, I had a Brazilian waxing for my back and shoulders.
Avatar f tn i have been suffering from terrible itch in my throat and years for the last couple of years. I have had all kinds of allergy tests carried out to find out if i am allergic to anything specific. i have changed my pillows from feathers to synthetic, i have tried to omit different food types to see if i get better. Nothing has helped. There is an onset of itch followed by 100's of sneezes and a drippy nose.
Avatar f tn Hi, I recently moved to Florida and appear to be suffering from allergies. People have told me that the new area may be what's causing the problem. Last year I got sick twice and both times people were saying allergies could've been the culprit. This year (in early January) I started with an itchy throat. Back in December I had a problem with my ears itching (I assumed they were just dry and used Mineral Oil to ease the itching).
Avatar m tn I have a constantly dripping nose, sneezing, itchy eyes/ears/back of throat and have recently starting getting incredibly itchy rashes on my body (mainly my legs) I was even told there's no point getting tested to see what I'm allergic to as it'm impossible to completely avoid the allergen(s). However, it seems to be getting worse and worse and I'm at the point now where I'm pretty much completely incapacitated.
Avatar f tn They get raised, hard, red, sometimes blistery, and always super itchy. Also, not sure if it is a coincidence but I had headaches for the first two weeks (which is unheard of for me), been sleeping terribly, and have had diarrhea daily. Other than this I am a healthy 30+ female with no significant health issues. Any ideas what is going on? Would bug bites linger for this long?
Avatar f tn He said no. About 10 days or so after the episode my nose got real dry and throat kinda itchy. As the days progressed my throat became mildly sore. It was very sore in the morning but got better as the day went on. No other symptoms though. I took an OraQuick standard test at 15 days after incident. It came back negative. I went to doctor about my sore throat. She said it was due to post nasal drip. Today makes the 20th day after incident.

Avatar f tn I have an annoying cold, itchy/runny nose and raspy throat...constantly sneezing and watery eyes....I wonder if there's any medication I can take or I just have to let it go on its own??
Avatar n tn I've had a tickling sensation in my throat for over 4 weeks now, since May 4th. I usually do not cough as to not make it worse. It is always a dry cough. No sounds in my chest. Some days are better than others. Right when my eyes open in the morning, I feel completely fine. Shortly after, I gradually start to feel the tickle come back. I do have seasonal allergies, however pollen has been in the "low" for the past 3 days and today I feel the tickle as bad as day 1.
Avatar f tn I have a sore itchy throat from my allergies and since I can't take my allergy medicine what are some things I can use to make this annoying feeling go away on 6 weeks 5 days today.
Avatar f tn My symptoms are just itchy throat and dry coughing. And the guy got tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea all negative. My question is do you think there is any other kind std related to my symptoms?
Avatar f tn 3 weeks ago I had sex with my boyfriend while I had a tampon in me. I thought I had taken it out but i was very wrong. I started noticing a very strange (and gross) smell when i tried having sex again. I thought it was a yeast infection or something. Earlier this morning i had him check and sure enough he pulled it out. A few days ago I started getting really sick. Sore throat, headache, coughing, body ache, and very itchy skin. I'm worried about TSS.
Avatar f tn I think if somebody is negative he may catch some viruses that cause some illnesses such as itchy and sore throat. I wish doctors look for this specific issue. I noticed that many people after exposure even they are not infected with HIV they suffer from sore throat and itchy.
Avatar m tn On 1 January 2013, I had a flu-like ilness, very high fever, night sweats, strong chills, mouth ulcers, sore throat, itchy skin and a small rash, red and maculopapular reappeared on my left cheek. The fever, night sweats, chills and the face rash subsided in a few days, but the other symptoms of illness remained. On 10 January 2013 (aprox. 35 days from exposure), I took a 3'rd generation Elisa - negative results.
Avatar f tn Again, the question remains what could be causing my throat to be so sensitive. I feel my throat closes up, feels more itchy when im active.
Avatar f tn And doc diagnosed it as allergic rhinitis and prescribed some antibiotics as it had some infection,after that I felt like my itchy throat is not going away, he prescribed some tablets for another 10days. And I have really bad headache sometimes. Been over two months now I have cough which looks non productive but some mucus is there though. Again on antibiotics. And two-three weeks ago I started noticing some non itchy red rash on my knuckles and arms.
Avatar n tn I am taking high blood pressure medication called lisinopril and I started an itchy throat, itchy ear and start coughing like It would never stop, it's getting worse when I swallow liquid. Any advise or diagnoses for my symptoms?
Avatar f tn I have severe soar throat, dry cough and itching in throat after 2 weeks of possible exposure.The exposure was vagjnal fluids possibly touching my penis. What should I do?
Avatar f tn After 2 weeks I had severe sore throat and 2 days later now I have very itchy rash on the neck. I am very worried, my palms are also itchy and I had UTI after 2 days of the exposure. Can you pls help as all the symptoms are of ARS.
Avatar n tn I've had a runny nose and cough for two months, along with a sore throat off and on (more on than off). No congestion. No sinus pain. No ear problems. Continuous symptoms, not a day in two months without. It started with a bad cold I had caught, and these particular symptoms never went away. Spring/summer is in full swing now, and my first guess would be that it's allergies, but I've never had this problem before. Itchy eyes and throat, yes, but not this.
