throat
The same germ that causes strep causes pink eye. I have had strep throat develop into pink eye several times. Since you just saw your doctor, and he probably prescribed you antibiotics, you should call the office and explain that you have pink eye. The doctor will probably just call in another prescription for you for the antibiotic eye drops.
About two weeks ago, I started developing the traditional pink eye symptoms of redness, itchy, drainage, crusty, etc. I went to the doctor, and was told, yes, it was pink eye. He gave me some antibiotic drops, and sent me on my way. Two days later I was back in his office, with my eye swollen almost shut, my eyeball redder than I've ever seen, and what looked like a blister on the outer corner of my eyeball.
Hello, I went swimming a early june and few days after that my ears started to hurt real bad and it gave me terrible headaches coming and going. Then I developed strep throat week later, got rid of it. I been putting Similasan earache releif it helped a little. And now its september 2, my ears don't hurt as bad but I think I lost some of my hearing, I can't hear like I use to. Now I'm having a problem with my left eye and left nostril watering.
Monday morning I went into the doctors the next morning and received a rapid strep throat test and shortly after came back positive for strep. Shortly, this put me at ease I was put on amoxicillin (500mg does 3x a day for 7 days).
I routinely followed my prescription and by day 7 my tonsil swelling went down completely the puss pockets left and the white layer which lightly covered my tongue with pink dots had faded.
All you can take is the paracetamol/tylenol and if you speak to a pharmacist you can probably have some brands of cough drops and throat soothers.

Doctor thinks she has strep so he took a strep test. Doctor said strep was highly contagious and asked if our 3 kids and myself got it. But nope only my wife.
Questions:
1. After readying the above what do you think my risks are for STD's?
2. If my wife does have strep throat is it possible that me and our 3 kids will not catch strep? We shared drinks on Saturday night,wife already starting having sore throat. Doc told her its highly contagious.

I woke up in the middle of the night with push and long strings of gunk and crusty. Went to my doctor, it was pink eye, one of my friends daughters had a eye cold and I caught it. You really need to see a doctor because if its pink eye, it's catchy, my boss had kids and didn't want me to come to work. So, if you been around any kids with head or eye colds. It's a pretty good chance you got it! Good luck, I do feel for ya!
Also, my throat is pink in color and not swollen. Please get back to me as soon as possible. I have my choir concert on Monday and I need to know if it's ok to sing or if it will affect my sore throat. Please let me know what's wrong. Also, my boyfriend had strep throat about 8 weeks ago. And I didn't kiss him or anything until about 5 weeks ago because I was afraid I would get strep. I don't know if that could be part if the cause or not. Please get back to me ASAP though.
At this point, my symptoms were a bit different. Extreme pain on the jaw, teeth, ear, throat, face and the back of my eye only on my right side. Headaches 3 to 4 times a week as well. He asked for a blood test (he was the only one that did it and it's almost three months since it all started) and the test showed infection, probably viral because the white part of my blood was just fine so it wasn't bacterial. I got more medicine and it's been 5 days and I see no results.
It is now Saturday, my daughter was diagnosed with strep throat Wednesday night and started amoxicillin in the urgent care, Friday afternoon she broke out in a itchy rash...mostly on her torso but some on her legs, neck, and arms. She has been on amoxicillin several times before from ear infections when she was little. The only difference with that is it is no longer pink (the amoxicillin).
After 4 days I got tongue infection, and after 6 days I got strep throat, skin allergy, nausea, sickness, ulcer in the mouth, red spots on tongue, coated mouth, sweating on hand palms and feet. And after 10 days I am feeling chills and body heat.
That means I got effected with HIV, my parents are planning for my marriage with in 2 months.
Please kindly reply.
But when it lasted into day 2 I checked it out with a light and saw little white spots on my throat. I have gotten strep and tonsillitis many times and it did not look like that. Since it's a holiday weekend, not much I could do on the doctor front so I figured I would see how it panned out. This morning I woke up and there are little red spots up near the top of my throat, my right tonsil is swollen and has little spots on it which are red with a tiny dot of white inside them.
You should be checked out by your doc because if you do have strep you should be treated with antibiotics, esp. if you're concerned about the strep causing MVP damage. I also have slight MVP and endured horrendous episodes of strep infections. I also have the feeling that these infections are the reason my heart started to go electrically haywire.
Strep is a nasty bacteria so it's best you address it at the doctor's office.
On March 25th I had all of my 14 lower teeth extracted and then received an immediate full denture and while it's been a chore in of itself trying to get used to these things what's even worse is that for the past 2 weeks I've had a constant sore throat, but only in the mornings and at night...??? Naturally, I think I probably have tonsillitis or something because it's definitly NOT strep. Could someone get tonsillitis after getting new dentures?
A few weeks ago I was put in antibiotics (amoxicillin) for strep throat and ended them about two weeks ago. I am sexually active and we did have sex during those days (he did not ejactulate inside of me and we used the pull out method). (Before this period, mine was on 12/6/16).
My period is usually dead accurate when it starts and it had on Tuesday of this week.
Okay - I've seen this question asked a million places and a million different ways but none of the answers were the same and none of the questions were very much like my situation so I figured I'd give it a try (sorry if you've seen this a ton of times before!).
My boyfriend is in the military and the last two times I've gone to visit him on base I have performed unprotected oral sex and gotten strep throat.
I had a bout of sore throat and something like a flu about 3 weeks back. I was given amoxycilin 250mg for 5 days, but till now, I have been experiencing a dark brownish mucous from my nose when I suck my mucous back and spit it out during the mornings. Throughout the day, when I blow my nose, there will be occasional green mucous too. But phlegm that I cough out is colourless. My throat is only very slightly sore occasionally.
