Avatar n tn )- the cough and phelgm still continue today day 24- still have the hacking cough with clear phelgm and tender around the neck area ( I dont think I have swolen glands but I really couldnt be sure) I cant find any info on the web that puts coughing and runny nose as ars symptoms but it is definately clear that the sore throat and stiff neck are symtoms of ars, but diferent sites say different things, the yellow phelgm worries me as I read on one web site that this is a sign of an immune syste

Avatar f tn Hi. No. From your description, it doesn't seem to me like throat cancer. Your doctor is probably correct in diagnosing it as an infection, although it may be viral instead of bacterial, which may be the reason why it does not seem to be responding to the antibiotics. The other reason why the infection has gotten prolonged instead of resolving is the fact that you have continued smoking intermittently. Cigarette smoke impairs the immune system, so it would be best for you to quit.
Avatar f tn It sounds as though your initial sore throat in December went away and then you got a second sore throat earlier this month. It would be unusual for a sore throat associated with recently acquired HIV to recur or to last three weeks, Further, there are many, many possible causes of swollen lymph nodes in the neck. If HIV is the cause of your swollen nodes your test will be positive. I anticipate that this will not be the case.
Avatar f tn It doesn't sound like cancer HOWEVER see an Eye MD ophthalmologist for a exam. Find one at www.aao.
Avatar f tn I met a women she has throat cancer, she even had a operation and i saw the scars on her throat, i had a French kiss with her and just sucked her nipple for a second thats it so my question is does the cancer spreads like that and will i get any hpv or so?

Avatar m tn While lung cancer usually does not cause signs and symptoms in the earliest stages, symptoms such as chronic cough, coughing up blood, chest pain, hoarseness, weight loss and shortness of breath may occur. To rule this out and ease any worry, it is best that you have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Direct clinical examination and additional diagnostic tests such as imaging studies of the lungs may need to be done. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn I am a 47 year old woman who has had symptoms for a couple of years (hoarseness, lump in throat, sometimes dry cough, etc.). I know that I have a nodule on my vocal chords as well as 2 nodules (one in each lobe) in my thyroid. The thyroid nodules are approximately 3 mm each. According to the ultrasound reports (I had one recently and also one three years ago), my thyroid gland is not enlarged and the nodules haven't changed significantly.
Avatar m tn Last answer. Delayed seroconversion is a myth. Believe your results.
Avatar n tn I am at the early stages of PPT (I also have postpartum anxiety) my endocrinologist put me on Tapazole 2 weeks ago. I have a mild soar throat but I believe it's merely the remnants of a cold. However, I am losing an insane amount of hair, above the average hair loss due to postpartum. Is this the combo of thyroid, meds and postpartum... I'm on tapazole 10mg daily dose. Is there something I can do? I had my blood work done on Friday and WBC was normal... does it fluctuate easily?
Avatar n tn Is it possible I have some viral infection from the HPV in my throat, possibly cancer? Would symptoms appear that quickly? Should I go to an OBGYN or an MD to check this out? And what tests should I get done (std testing, tests for hyper-/hypo thyroidism, cancer screening)?
Avatar m tn You need totalk with your doctor about this. This is not the sort of question to try to answer on-line.
Avatar m tn last year with an escort, we did not have sex or kissing or anything, she just put her finger in her vagina and then she put her finger in my mouth and I tasted it, is it possible that I might get throat or oral cancer from this event caused by HPV type 16, this is the type that causes oral and throat cancer. Can I get it from that event? Can I be completely confident I wont get it? I am really really worried doctor I just need your reassurance. I can not stop checking my throat every time.
Avatar m tn Welcome to the Forum. There is a small risk of throat infection with cunnilingus IF your partner were infected. The risk if less than if you had taken part in unprotected genital sex as the biological efficiency of the transfer from the female genital tract to the throat is lower than for transfer to the penis during genital-genital contact. Further, chlamydial infections do not seem to "take" very well at the throat and for this reason throat infections due to C.
Avatar n tn The only oral cancer known to be caused by HPV is of the back of the throat, and is almost never seen in people under 40 years old. Also, HPV of the throat, as well as cancer itself, is entirely painless. There is no chance that any of these symptoms, or your possibly inflamed lymph nodes, are due to HPV or cancer. If these symptoms continue, see your doctor. But don't be worried about anything serious or about oral HPV. I hope this has been helpful.
Avatar f tn I'm 27 weeks! Okay I'll have to look. I looked at web MD but that say nasal spray and Tylenol and I've been taking those.
Avatar f tn Welcome to our Forum. I'll be pleased to comment. The events you describe are very low risk for any STI and no risk for HIV. Most commercial sex workers do not have STIs and most exposures to infected partners do not lead to infection. In your case, your highest risk exposure, vaginal sex was condom protected and therefore safe sex with no need for concern of for testing.
Avatar n tn I had the same sensation and still do at times. I'm a smoker and my mother died of throat cancer so needless to say I was concerned. I had an ENT take a look (stuck this scope thru my nose into my throat and found nothing abnormal. Stress can cause that sensation - there's a name for it, though I can't remember what it is. Anyway, if it concerns you, make an appt. with an ENT.
Avatar f tn m skeptical because I know the symptoms show up in two weeks not after a couple of days you know. I put his symptoms in web MD and got a common cold...could that it be it??
331673 tn?1199354285 i've been experiencing symptoms and i too have general symptoms of throat cancer. i'm in deep stress, cant think etc. Have prayer and stop googling symptoms for it will make it your anxiety worse.
Avatar f tn I was put on 40mg of proprandol twice a day and it has actually reduced my symptoms for e.g. my shaking has disappeared and so had the tight chest and throat feeling.
Avatar m tn came down with severe sore throat, swallowing problems By than I started to get a bit scared and searched the web for any STD’s and of course I found that sore throat was a big symptom in both STD’s and HIV. 2 June 2008: went to my doctor and because I have a history of sore throat she gave me Augmentin 825. Had an HIV DUO test at 3 weeks = negative 9 June 2008: no improvement, went to ENT who thought it were my tonsils.
