Avatar n tn 5 weeks after exposure, I got a slight sore throat with some congestion after a weekend of going to the beach and water getting in my nose. The next day it felt like a sinus infection (congestion, headache caused by pain in bridge of nose/forehead which worsened when i bent over, some phlegm, sore throat only in the morning). Also, ever since my exposure I've been checking my groin, armpits, and neck constantly for swollen nodes. I have yet to feel any swollen nodes in my armpits and neck.
Avatar m tn Going to the Doc tomorrow. I still have this sore throat which as I read is a symptom of something. I hope its not HIV. this is my third day with it. My throat is red in the back. Mild one though. I hope he checks it for gonorrhea Sorry but getting nervous.
Avatar f tn it started before he got the antibiotic though, and before the MRSA throat infection was diagnosed. And this all started with what I thought was a virus. Do you think he should get a sputum culture, and is that even possible when he's not coughing? Thanks again for all your advice, you've been very helpful, which is very much appreciated.. it makes this a lot harder that he's in another country and I can't talk to the doctors there.
Avatar n tn Is there a bug going around at the moment? I have been feeling very tired, headache every day when I cough my head hurts like mad. My shoulders and neck are aching which make me feel sick sometimes, I had shivers on Sunday and went to bed during the day, I haven't gone to work today, I woke up at 6.30am went back to sleep at 7.30 until 10.00 then again until 12.00 then again until 1.00pm, I feel drained, although I am eating.
Avatar m tn 3 weeks after my exposure i had a bad sore throat, cough, runny nose, headache. 3 months later i had a bad sore throat again with a runny nose. I became parranoid so i had the following test. at 4 weeks: Naat and antibody both negative. at 8 weeks: Antibody test: neg at 14 weeks: hiv screen test: neg at 6 months : naat test + antibody test.: both neg.
Avatar m tn And with this crazy weather that has been going on, there are lots of viruses going around still. These symptoms are not related to any std. They aren't even symptoms of std's. Here is a website you can visit to better educate yourself on they symptoms of std's and risks, etc. www.ashastd.
Avatar f tn Off and on for the past month Ive had redness/ soreness around the "hood" of my clitorous. A little over a month ago I was diagnosed with a yeast infection. after it cleared up the whole vaginal area became raw (pinkesh / red) and very sore. I used vagisil to soothe it (make it bareable), but it did not help with the rawness.
Avatar n tn m not sure what the typical time frame is for symptoms to appear, and I read that gonorrhea of the throat is typically asymptomatic. If I went to the doctor and just told them I was having a sore throat and headaches, would they be able to tell the difference between gonorrhea and strep throat?
Avatar n tn I been have a constant dry cough for about two weeks now and been having alot of phlim. it doesnt hurt me when i cough or anything. My main concern is why do i have holes around my tonsils.. What can it be?
Avatar f tn I have to say, there is a terrible chest cold/sinus infection going around here that also causes nosebleeds and fatigue. Right now my entire family has got it, friends have it or are getting over it, and I seen many local people coughing/hacking and sniffling while out in public. It almost seemed as something out of a horror movie. Strange how such a large group of people get sick all at once, which of course what lead me to find this forum.
Avatar f tn a sore throat after 11 days, 2 days later, a canker sore. When my sore throat disappeared after 1.5 weeks, my left elbow began to hurt for 2 days. (this is now about 25 days after exposure) and then after 2 days, pain went away. And then 5 days later, I wake up, and my ELBOW begins to hurt again. It comes and goes and I'm now 4.5 weeks past exposure. Despite knowing the risks of oral sex, I'd like to know if my "symptoms" even coincide with ARS. Thanks.
Avatar m tn Hello, I am a 21-year old male now nearly approaching 6 months since I had a really bad throat infection and I have several complication that have come after that. I have seen several doctors, but none have found a source. Several have stated anxiety and 2 doctors have stated tonsil removal. So about 5 almost 6 months ago I had a very bad throat infection that was very similar to strep. I had 1 rapid strep test and 2 throat cultures in the span of 1 month and all of these were normal.
Avatar f tn Common allergens causing these symptoms are pollen, mold, dust, pet dander. Streptoccocal infection is the most common bacterial infection and can cause nasal symptoms too. Indoor exposure to black mold can cause upper respiratory tract symptoms such as sore throat and cough with or without wheeze in otherwise healthy people. Ideally you should consult a chest specialist.
Avatar m tn This is a common happening and is thought to be caused by a virus that makes the throat more sensitive to infection and irritation. The irritation may be from another virus infection but might also be caused by allergy, cold air or the exposure to very cold foods, smoke or by acid that flows up into the throat from the stomach. Another common cause of this type of cough is asthma.
Avatar m tn The sore throat might have something to do with the lung infection, or it can be due to a infection in the throat, or could be due to smoking, or also could be due to acid reflux from the stomach. So it is hard for me to say. It is up to the doctor to look at your throat or do a culture to see if it is infected. The pain in the stomach may be due the other stomach problem they are giving you the diet for. I 'm not sure. Did you tell the doctor about the pain?
Avatar m tn Not really raised, but noticeable. Not there before. They soon spread around, but only on the head. No OBVIOUS warts. Then i developed a rash on my inner thighs and on my forehead and cheeks. Pimple like rash, but without the white center. Then I felt like a bus hit me. Literally I could barely get out of bed I was so tired. Then started the lower back pain, I had to use a heating pad to help. I went to the Urgent Care and told them I felt like i had an STD.
