Sore throat and z pack
Common Questions and Answers about Sore throat and z pack
throat
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. Then, the following day it came back and it has been back everyday since then for the last 3 weeks.
I was diagnosed with step and put on a z-pack. My throat is swollen and sore, I can barely swallow. I have also noticed a large pus pocket right next to my uvula.
It's been 3 days and I haven't gotten better at all. Is there anything else a doctor can give me to try and get the pus pocket and sore throat to go away?
ve been on a 5 day pack for 4 days now. I still have a sore throat and am tired, and feel this is tied to the Z Pack. I'm also feeling dizzy.
I'm also thinking that the sore throat may be gonorrhea from what I've read as her penis was in my mouth? Again, no ejaculation. If so, with throat gonorrhea do u take meds?
I've been pretty stressed about this and the anxiety is killing me.
I was tested for strep after initial infection and it was negative and then I had a throat culture taken after a follow-up (after the coarse of the z-pack) and they came back clean too. I had a blood test taken for mono and that was negative too. I had an HIV oral test at four weeks and it was negative but this sore throat won't quit.
My left tonsil is slightly more swollen and I have slightly lymph node on that side. The throat is worse in the mornings.
Sorry in advance but this will be a long post. Im 23 yrs old, f. Diagnosed of asthma since i was a child. I could have no asthma attack for months but when i do it is worse. Im not currently taking any maintenance before this started.
Ive had an asthma flare up last month (March 2016) due to sore throat and cold. I've went to see my doctor and he prescribed me Symbicort, Albuterol neb and Z pack. Usually, this medicine combination would work for me but this time it doesn't.
I went to the doctor, and she put me on a z-pack. I finished the pack, along with taking albuterol for breathing sessions. I still have a cough, and went to a walk in today, and the doctor thought I might have bronchitis or pneumonia. I usually take prednisone for my breathing difficulties. Will this help with the possible broc/pne? She suggested 5 20mg. a day for 7 days. Has anyone had an experience like this? I am leaving on a cruise Sunday, and do not want to be sick.
I have had a sore throat for 3 weeks where it does not sting but is internal where when I drive and look left to right...the sore throat reminds me it is there 50 times a day. I went to the MD and was given a Z-pack antibiotic. Should I do anything else to resolve this? Should I test for HIV or anything else that the Z-Pack would not have resolved? Thanks so much.
Also went to the docters and he gave me z-pack finished the antibotics did nothing for my throat. The doc gave me a throat swab for strep came back negitive. My throat is still filled with puss and my gland on my right side is a bit swollin I have had some stomach pain and have felt run down (this could be caused by stress?) I have bin very stressed out this past month.
I had a throat culture and urinalysis and sediment done and the NP said she thinks I have a viral infection or strep at the time of the appt yesterday (bad sore throat, swollen glands, urine frequency, fever, chills and body aches)
Well I have access to my records online and this is what my urinalysis and sediment said, I don't understand what they mean?
Urinalysis:
UCLRG: Dark Yellow
UAPP: Cloudy
UGLG: Negative (Normal is Negative)
UBILI: Small++
UKTG Negative (Normal is Negative)
SGG 1.
Now at 10weeks post the incident I still have white on my tongue and red irritated sore throat. Went into urgent care today and was given prednisone and 250mg zpac for 5 days. I do not have any sores or lesions in my mouth and none identified by the quick care provider.
My anxiety is back though wondering if i missed an oral std and should I have another panel done.
Thanks in advance for your review and advice.
I am almost 20 weeks pregnant and I've had a sore throat, nagging cough and really bad congestion for almost a week. To top it off I just woke up with pink eye yesterday. So I have prescription eye drops for that. I've been taking Robitussin which doesn't seem to be helping the other symptoms at all. Does anybody have any baby safe remedies?
But then I started having a sore throat maybe a week and a half after the cough started... And that was the sore throat from hell. It still hurts now too. No matter what I drank it hurt.
I got azirhromycin from the doctor. And promethazine surup( not with codeine). When I first went to te dr, i just had the cough. And complained of a little sore throat and some runny nose but not much. On Monday I got the congestion and I've been blowing my nose like crazy!
About a week after the event, I camed down with an upper respiratory infection and was prescribed a Z Pak. I was to take the first 2 pill the first night, a total of 500 mg and 250 mg for the following four days. My question is... do you think that is effective against eliminating Gonnorhea if I were to have it? And what other STD's could this take care of?
Below is the latest idea I had on the cause of this if anyone could help with it I would be grateful. And would the z-pack be effective if this from the huge hole in my tooth that food gets stuck in. It is an upper tooth.
I am back on azithromycin z-pak because my throat has not cleared up . I have very little mucus but I do get a little crusting in my nose and can blow a little out sometimes.
When to my general practitioner who put me on 5 days z pack antibiotics (did not do a culture). Finished z pack Saturday. Still have white stuff in the back of my throat and feeling sore again.
Am a little worried about having to do too many antibiotics on tx. Am worried maybe they are not as effective on tx. Will try calling my gp and my hep doc tomorrow now that the holidays are over.
Just wondering if anyone has had similar issues or knowledge that could help.
No cough or stuffy nose but just a really bad sore throat. I just finished taking the Z-Pack last night and am starting to a feel a bit better however my throat is still somewhat scratchy. My question is that a few days ago, I believe my lip my have split due to the cold and actually developed into a bit of a sore. It was very sensitive to the touch however, it officially split about 2 days ago and is already nearly 100% healed as I have been actively putting vaseline on it.
Two days later and one day left of antibiotics the left side began hurting just as bad, exact same symptoms, but it is getting worse, left ear and left side of the throat. I again called the doctor and was given a prescription for z-pack. Anybody have any ideas what is causing this, and what I can do for the pain, the motrin and oragel is just not working well enough, and I am starting to get hungry!!!
I had a cold about 6 weeks ago and my doctor thought I hand sinusitis and prescribed me a z-pack. I did not tell him about the unprotected sex at that time. The cough has only seemed to gotten worse over time and they have now prescribed me 500mg levaquin with the same diagnosis. I have no redness, bumps, rash, etc. Is there any chance that these symptoms are related to an oral STD. There was no fluid exchanged so maybe that helps some. Should I have anything to worry about?
My doctor did a rapid strep test and it came back negative. I went on a z-pack and it lessened the severity of the sore throat, but it didn't completely go away. I'm worried that it might be throat herpes! I've been tested back in January for Herpes 1&2 and both came back non-existent negative. I'm worried that I could have contracted it from some unknown source (I've read that's how most people get HSV-1).
Next day I started coughing could hardly speak and runny nose, sneezing. At day 5 of not speaking, etc I went to the doctor and he gave me a Z-Pack which I finished. 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.
