Avatar m tn I have this small blisters near the head of my penis (i am not circumsised) and they turned white when I applied acetic acid to them. They dont look like genital warts. can anyone tell me what else tends to turn white when acetic acid is applied?
Avatar f tn I used 5 percent acetic acid in the hospital to test for HPV. If someone repeatedly touched the acetic acid in the bottle with the same cotton swab, would the acetic acid in the bottle have HPV?
Avatar m tn I did a stupid thing - I read on the internet that genital warts can be recognized with acetic acid solution, but I rubbed about 50% acetic acid on my penis, and washed with water after. It happend 2 weeks ago, I had these wounds that healed, but i notice that the pigmentation of my penis is different. What can I do about it?
Avatar f tn Vinegar like smell in sweat is due to an acid called propionic acid. Since this acid is chemically similar to acetic acid in vinegar, the sweat smells of vinegar. This happens due to excess amino acids in sweat (which are breakdown products of protein), seen common with a high protein diet. Also if the diet is rich in cheese, then bacteria of staphylococcus type acts on the sweat and causes this smell of vinegar.
Avatar n tn Doctor dipped a cotton bud in a bottle of acetic acid, and give it to me,I pressed it on my foreskin about five minutes. I afraid that HIV can transmit from the cotton bud(because the testing room is beside to the office of the doctor and there is no doctor in there before I came in. I'm not sure the cotton bud is safe when I use it.) So I just want to ask two questions: 1)If there is Hiv/hpv virus on the bud, can HIV transmit by pressing on my foreskin over 5 minutes?
Avatar m tn Vinegar is an acidic liquid processed from the fermentation of ethanol in a process that yields its key ingredient, acetic acid (also called ethanoic acid). It also may come in a diluted form. The acetic acid concentration typically ranges from 4 to 8 percent by volume for table vinegar[1] (typically 5%) and higher concentrations for pickling (up to 18%) http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar f tn This technique involves the application of 5% acetic acid solution to the area of suspicion for about 5-10 minutes. Infected areas will turn white. The best method of detecting and diagnosing HPV in women is through a regular pelvic exam and Pap smear. However to detect the strain, Qiagen or hybrid capture test can be done. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
5780797 tn?1374128448 I believe I have Acid Reflux as I have the same beginning symptoms as my brother did and he was diagnosed with it. But my question is: Is it safe to swallowing vinegar? I tried it once and it did work. Felt like I swallowed a fireball but it worked. Is there any health problems that could occur from using this trick?
Avatar f tn Yes, there is a test using acetic acid, which would turn condylomata white, but not a skin tag.
Avatar m tn The acetic acid in apple cider vinegar may, damage tooth enamel and even burn the esophagus when taken regularly.
Avatar n tn Last week I noticed a bump on my scrotum that looked suspiciously like a wart (I haven't had genital warts previously). The skin around it was itchy and I scratched it a bit - which made it bleed a little. I went to the Sexual Health clinic the next day where a doctor took a look at it but wasn't sure if it was a wart or not. They suggested freezing it with the gun a little and said if it went bright white it would be an indicator that it could be a wart.
Avatar m tn Genital warts can be confirmed by biopsy but Sometimes we can use an enhancing technique called acetowhitening. This technique involves the application of 5% acetic acid solution to the area of suspicion for about 5-10 minutes. Infected areas will turn white. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.
Avatar n tn The reason apple cider vinegar works is that it has malic and acetic acid, and these fight fungi, bacteria and viruses. The acids in vinegar work with the natural acids in your body to create a new compound that fights bacterias. This is why apple cider vinegar is often used for skin problems like rashes and bug bites. If you decide to take treatment into your own hands, always talk to your doctor first so you know the risks.
Avatar n tn I went to an NP and she put acetic acid on it, it did not turn white. She said it was not a wart, that sometimes you can get bumps. She offered to burn it off, I said no... It stayed there the same size for a while and then it started to get bigger. I went to a different doctor who said it WAS a wart. She used liquid nitrogen to treat. That was back in May. I've started to date a new guy. I promised myself, I would tell him. He doesn't know that much about STD's, so I was worried.
Avatar m tn Cetirizine Acetic Acid Hydrochloride is the chemical name for Cetrizine (Zyrtec). I'm not a chemist, but I do know what acetic acid is and what it smells like. I have a big bottle of it in my kitchen cabinet and I use it often for salads....lt's vinegar......
Avatar f tn Molybdenum helps by converting the acetaldehyde into acetic acid. This can then be excreted from the body like any other toxin. Alternatively, the acetic acid can actually be converted into an enzyme named acetyl coenzyme A, which is actually an important part of your metabolism. Acetaldehyde is also released during Candida Die-Off, which is when molybdenum is especially useful.
Avatar m tn Would tiny-tiny little painful bumps be a sign of early HPV? I tried the acetic acid test and nothing changed color, but honestly, I think the bumps are just under the skin, where the acetic acid can't get to it. They don't appear to be raised, flat warts. Does this sound like HPV?
Avatar n tn what test is more accurate? I was told the acetic acid test can give a postive result to the inflected but no wart.
Avatar m tn TODAY I WENT FOR ANOTHER ROUTINE CHECKUP AND AS MY NEW DOCTOR CHECKED OUT THE BUMPS HAS STATED THEY ARE POSSIBLY GENETAL WARTS. SO SHE PLACES SOME FORM OF ACID ON THEM AND WHILE ITS BURNING THEY TURN WHITE. IM CONFUSED EVEN THOUGH TWO OF THE BUMPS GREW ONLY BUT A FRACTION OF TINY I DONT KNOW IF ITS PAPULES OR WARTS. I GET HOME AND THE AREA SHE PLACED THE ACID ON IS STILL WHITE (SEVERAL HOURS LATER) BUT NOTHING DIFFERENT OTHER THEN THE BLACK AND BLUEISH BRUISE LIKE CIRCLE AROUND THE BUMPS.

Avatar n tn My husband has cirrhosis and we cleaned up his diet, took milk thistle vitamin E, selenium, alpha lipoic acid, and a B complex vitamin and he started to get better. Lactulose causes diarrhea but once the ammonia is cleared out , you find a reasonable maintenance dose. We have treated the virus twice unsuccessfully and are trying a 3rd time. Before treating this last time, my husband took lots of supplements suggested here by a hepatitis researcher.

Avatar f tn She made an appt for me to see an ENT to suction out the crud, and gave me acetic acid drops. By the time I saw the ENT two days later, my ear was feeing almost no pain. He suctioned out the stuff and said my eardrum liked ok, but inflamed. He said this was one of the worst infection he had seen. He filled my ear with a yellow gooey antifungal agent, which cuts out air and sound. He said to leave the goo in and see him in a week. He also had me continue with my course of antibiotic.
