Hi I've had viral tonsillitis for two months now when I eat it feels like food is gettin stuck and my throat feels really tight and i get a pain on my right side of my neck when I swallow also I have a lot of plehgm all the time plz help anyone what should I do as cant see gp till tuesday
I visited the doctor Monday with a vaginal infection and was given Metronidazole to start taking. I went back for results Wednesday and I was confirmed to have BV. My doctor then gave me Erythromycin to take (2, twice a day)... as well as the Metronidazole (3, three times a day). This seems like an awful lot of antibiotics. Why was I given Erythromycin, when from as far as I can tell, Metronidazole alone is the recommended treatment for BV?
Hope someone can shed some light on this.
Thanks!
To confirm the presence of HIV infection, the most specific test would be testing for its antibodies with an ELISA test which is a screening test which looks for antibodies in the blood. The antibodies are usually produced within 1-3 months of the infection. If this test is positive as a lot of false positivity exists with this test another more specific test to detect the antibodies is the Western blot test.
Sometimes persistent enlargement of the tonsil can sometimes be due to a lymphoma.
At the beginning of April (2016) I started feeling unwell so I went to the doctors on the 10th of April and was diagnosed with tonsillitis. I was treated with antibiotics and it went away. I was going through a very stressful period in my life and was smoking (never smoked in my life before) and drinking heavily which started around January so I thought this may have caused the tonsillitis.
In May I got a bad urine infection and it turned out my ex had given my chlamydia.
All my symptoms gradually getting worse. Each time iv just been given more antibiotics for tonsillitis none of which seems to help. I have reffered to the hospital to have my tonsilis taken. However when i went to the doctor last week he suggested that when i saw the consultant at the hispital they should consider throat cancer, this worrys me as i am 18, however i did used to smoke heavily and only recently quit and i am a student so i do drink alot.
at first i didnt bother it but after my medication in soar throat and allergy(urcatitaria), my vagina started to became itchy and again, everyday i started having green discharged for `1 week. i went to a gynecologist and she prescribed me a metronidazole miconazole vaginal suppository and ive used that for `1 week.. now what my problem is, my white discharge had stop.. i am also currently taking up medice for my UTI and had experiexed sex but that was like long time ago...
Metronidazole can cause diarrhea as a side effect. But it may be also working on the infective cause of your dog's illness in the first place, so don't stop it without speaking to your vet.
Meanwhile keep your dog hydrated. If you can find an unflavoured electrolyte drink like Pedialyte that would be great. Plain water would do for a short time but Pedialyte would be better.
My heart beat is erratic most of the time anyway but when I tried taking flagyl for campylobacter, it didn't affect my heart at all. I just got extremely sick and intestinal issues worsened. They had to switch me.
For the past ten days I have been taking Metronidazole (Two 250mg oral tablets, twice daily).
I took my last pills lastnight around 10:30 pm.
My question is, would it be okay for me to consume alcohol on Saturday night?
I know my pharmacist told me to absolutely stay away from alcohol while I was taking the pills because I would vomit alot, and he said most people wait a couple of days after they've finished before they drink. Im just wondering if two days is enough time?
I had to take it last week for 5 days. Everything is great with baby. It does say that there is no harm to take it however I understand your concern. I'm 27w 5d I'm sure I would've been me hesitant at 6 weeks.
I'm a little confused, because if there's one thing any doctor should be able to diagnose is advanced tonsillitis. It makes you pretty sick, and it can feel a lot like mono. I had it once and at first it is hard to tell what's going on, but after a week it clearly showed as tonsillitis. Which is what makes me confused, as you've had it for awhile and so docs should have been able to diagnose it by now.
Tonsillectomy is advised if there is recurrent streptococcal tonsillitis, recurrent peritonsillar abscess and chronic tonsillitis. Recurrent tonsillitis is an indication for tonsillectomy, as the tonsils may harbor the infection which keeps flaring up, or they may develop new infections. Also, sometimes persistent enlargement of the tonsil can sometimes be due to a lymphoma. So, if it is not responding to max, medical treatment, then tonsillectomy is the option.
Yes you can still feel pain and some slight symptoms even after all seven days, the antibiotic continues to work for a day or so after antibiotics are finished. However if it continues for more than 48 hours after finishing the medicine you should go back to doctor....or if it gets worse.
The other thing is you may have a strain that is resistant to amoxicillin and may need to get a different antibiotic altogether.
Are you getting better at all?
Gargle with warm salt water.
t respond to sinus pills (or any pills, what are sinus pills by the way). You likely have or had a virus and what you do for a virus is comfort care. That means ibuprofen/acetaminophen for pain relief and inflammation relief, fluids, things like hot tea to sooth, gargle with salt water, those numbing products you spray or su ck on. It should run it's course.
I can understand the antibiotic, but I can't understand the steroid. Kind of odd to mistake tonsillitis for an allergy. The bacteria may be resistant to the antibiotic, otherwise it should have worked by now. I don't know what to suggest that would be efficacious. If it were me I might try using an antiseptic mouthwash and gargling with it.
Went to the dr in late November for strep throat and a sinus infection, tested negative for strep but I have cobblestone throat and my left tonsil is inflamed. My doctor said I have some pus behind It & I have a small hole on my tonsil as well. My throat does not hurt and I no longer have any symptoms. I have taken both azthromycin and doxycycline. My throat still looks the same. My doctor has said just to keep an eye on it. Should I just go ahead and go to an ENT?
I Messed Up On My Last Post Lol But I Just Really Wanna Know How Long Does Tonsillitis Last ? I’ve Been On Antibiotics For 5 Days Now &&’ I Feel Great !! I Just Wanted To Know How Long Do It Last ?
research shows that there can be more tissue damage in adults,blood vessels are larger in caliber, could be more post nasal drip and GERD can occur...
