And strep is notoriously resistant. They now use higher doses of things and antibiotics have additive agents to help them stay potent in killing the bacteria. So, if you took the full course and are still sick, follow back up with your doctor for the next step. Knock this out hopefully soon!
Avatar m tn If the sore throat persists, you might want to get that cultured for strep throat (has nothing to do with sex).
Avatar f tn I know I should be seeing a Dr for this but since I have a high deductible on my health insurance I wanted to post here first to see what thoughts you all might have before I make a return visit. I went ot the Dr about 3 weeks ago due to a severe sore throat and low grade fever, he did a step test and it came back negative but due to the redness and the tenderness/swollen glands he gave me a Z-Pack of Antibiotics. Within 24 hrs the sore throat weakened and I was feeling much better.
Avatar m tn i had protected vaginal intercourse with a sex worker to the best of my knowledge,i dont think the condom broke,its been 3 weeks since the incident and today i woke up with a slight sore throat,temperature of 99.6 farenheit and a rash on my chest a couple of centimetres below my neck...it is not raised but red patches in the middle of my chest.... i fear that it is the start of hiv ars symptoms...
Avatar f tn Did the doctor do a throat culture for strep? A quick swab to the back of the throat for a rapid strep test could give you the answer to your discomfort. Whatever is causing your discomfort, it does not sound like it is going to go away on its own. You are going to need the treatment of a doctor. Sorry not the answer you wanted.
Avatar m tn All of this I have no problem with but the sore throat that lasted for two weeks and the dry mouth this morning is making me unable to think I did not even open my e-mail yet at work I think they are going to fire me soon.
Avatar m tn It all started back to 8 weeks ago when I engaged in sex (oral and vaginal) with a woman. 3 weeks later I began having a sore throat that I originally attributed to allergies. Then it became very severe for a week and then got some what better. I've also experienced a white tongue for at least 3 of the weeks. There's no sores on my tongue, it's just got this white layer that almost seems like it's in my tongue. I can temporarily make it better with my electric tooth brush.
Avatar m tn if a male had an encounter with stranger female with deep french kissing and unprotected oral sex, her on him, approximately 4 weeks ago, at 3 weeks had a test for all stds and it came negative, 4 weeks later the male gets sore throat. Could that be Gonnerhea or hepres? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/246556'>fellatio risks on homosexual relation</a>.
Avatar m tn I am from china, I did unprotected sex 6 weeks ago,I got sore throat from 2th weeks, 5 weeks later, I tested HIV in a hospital, and the results were negative ,Is not already safe ?
Avatar m tn I did not perform oral sex on her nor did I even get close to down there. Could throat G be transmitted by deep kissing? Was 3 weeks too soon? Do I need to retest?
Avatar n tn I have got 3-4 fesh coloured perfectly round spots on my tonsils which intially for 2 -3 weeks have not been sore, over the last week I have developed a tingling burning sensation in my lips, tongue and roof of mouth and developed a sore throat. The tonsils dont appear to be swollen or red. I have noticed on my top lip when I lift it up there are loads of white spots which in places seem to be clusters.
Avatar f tn this all started off with a cold and sore throat. i was diagnosed with tonsillitis and then laryngitis and have had antibiotics for this but its still there over 9 weeks now?! its a bit of a mystery i was wondering if you could help!?!
Avatar n tn i was ok after taking the antibiotics for the abdominal pains but the sore throat became very severe. this sore throat is quite different from all sore throats i have experienced and has lasted for a longer period of time. i don't feel pains when i swallow but it itches and become very dry. swallowing keeps it better.
Avatar f tn I got sore throat, when I was around 28 weeks, and my dr told I could take Tylenol regular strength 325mg every 4 to 6 hours and those candys for sore throat only that, oh and LOTS of fluid. That's what I did and like 2 or 3 days I was way better.
Avatar n tn anxiety can "convince" your mind of just about anything. ever thought that you just have a plain ole sore throat? :) i know that you have been tested...but doing a search doesnt reveal your possible exposure. ??????????????
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 n tn As I said earlier, when I got the throat infection after 2 days I had a sore throat which lasted for 6 days (no medications taken) and second time which is exactly 2 weeks after the intercourse, it was severely inflated and had some pus in it and I took antibiotics and it went away in 4 days..
