Avatar m tn Hi, I am a male who Had unprotected oral sex both given and received with a prostitute, along with protected vaginal sex, and i actually used my finger insert in her vagina, which i noticed later to have been previously scratched with skin peeled and red cut (not bleeding though but red , probably stopped bleed the day before or so).
Avatar n tn It could most probably be tonsillitis and a throat infection. Throat pain, difficulty swallowing, fever, scratchiness in the throat, post nasal drip, malaise and loss of appetite are symptoms of tonsillitis. It can be caused by bacteria like streptococcus or it could be a viral infection. Bacterial infections need antibiotics. Consult your primary care physician who will do blood tests and take a throat swab to determine the cause and prescribe appropriate medications.

Avatar n tn Even if this pain occurs daily (which is the only symptom that continues to occur) and I had other STD symptoms earlier which have since vanished? (Sore throat, burning sensation in the urethra, abdominal pain, red bumps, ect.) What else could cause this within a few days of a sexual encounter?
Avatar f tn Pain below ear/in jaw began about 6 months ago. Tongue pain is recent, ear pain and sinus pain/congestion have increased from allergies but were present prior to allergen exposure. Lymph nodes in neck are perpetually swollen but worse in the last couple months (again, possibly allergies?). Other relevant/potentially relevant info: have reflux for which I am on Prilosec.
Avatar f tn About 1 week ago, started developing rash like pimply mark on right side of forehead followed by 3 swollen lymph nodes in neck, right side. Went to the nurse, she told me to change my earrings- didn't help. Next few days, started getting right sided migraines, extreme fatigue, eye pain(right side) and a general lack of appetite, also it was like my eyes moved slowly & I was sometimes disoriented. Went to doctor they told me "your body is working" and gave me ibuprofen.
Avatar f tn I have had for a few months sharp, severe pain in upper throat on swallowing salad dressing or mayonnaise that has vinegar or fruit juice in it. No other symptoms. I find only supraglotteal cancer listed when I look on the Net for what this can be a symptom of. My ENT doctor had me get a barium swallow (stomach through larynx or most of larynx) which looked normal, and will be doing a more thorough exam (down-through-the-nose tube light, in-office); my mouth looked normal enough.
Avatar f tn For about a month now I have had the feeling of something stuck in my throat that never goes away, It is worse in the mornings after lying down, When I clean my teeth I have the need to gag.I tried making myself throw up thinking its going to come off but it doesn't change a thing...Even if i try drinking lots of water... I do not have any pain but it doesn't feel normal. Do I have Throat cancer? Is it something i should be worried of?
Avatar n tn i dont know if this is conected but i have always sore throat and feeling that smt is stuck in my throat and i cannot swallow it.
Avatar n tn A feeling of tightness around your throat or a sore throat is one of the many listed hypothyroid symptoms. In most cases, Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is confirmed by two antibody tests: anti-TPO and TgAb. One antibody can be normal with the other elevated so it is important to have both tested.
Avatar f tn I know it's crazy, but I am looking for a diagnosis. I have felt like #$%! for a long time, and I am tired of being told I am crazy! Here are my symptoms: Scratchy throat (especially when I sing - it makes me cough) I have been to an ENT for this who stuck a camera down my throat and said everything looks terrific and there is no sign of reflux. Strange feeling in my throat, almost like someone has there hands around my throat and is squeezing slightly.
Avatar f tn So far doctors have been unable to diagnosis. My symptoms are a scratchy throat, no energy, chills, and low grade temperate. It feels like I have the flu that last for 4 to 6 months and feel better for a couple weeks between episodes. My health in general has been good. I’ve had sever migraine for 15 years, muscle pain, spinal fusion after a burst fracture, high cholesterol, low bone density, and breast implants. MRI’s found” microadenoma 6mm in pituitary”, most likey“1.
Avatar f tn I have a mildly sore throat that is presenting itself like strep with white pus on my tonsils (minus the severe pain, fever and other symptoms). Went to the doctor today and they tested for strep, mono and the flu. All negative. I tested for HIV today and also negative (rapid test, 5 weeks since last exposure) Wondering what else it could be? Throat gono? Another virus?
Avatar n tn For 3 weeks, ongoing armpit pain, fatigue, weird sore throat that only hurts on right side when I swallow, and constant urination all night. Oral exposure to guy on many occasions. Don't know his status. How do I know if the pain is from a swollen lymph node or something else. Its not huge, cant see the lymph node but do have this ongoing subtle discomfort. If not HIV since oral is not the reason, any ideas?
467168 tn?1232065583 I have had the chest pain, burning acid, feeling sick to my stomach, mucus overy my teeth and hanging down my throat, choking at times. I finally knew that if I take my mediation as directed, eat small healthy meals, walk during the day, avoid all acid producing foods, take time to really rest, try to avoid as much stress as possible. Stress my main trigger. I thought I had always been a strong person. Now I see that life's many stresses can beat me down.
Avatar n tn I woke up a few weeks ago at midnight with bad back pain and chest pain shortness of breath nausea ekg normal cardiac enzymes normal.
Avatar n tn I had a sharp stabbing, electrifying pain in my throat region that was felt upon swallowing, coughing, drinking, eating and talking. After dealing with my PCP for several weeks, I insisted to be seen by an ENT. He diagnosed my situation as glossopharyngeal neuralgia. I was put on gabapentin twice a day and it helped for a while although I had break through pain. The dosage was increased approximately a year later after being sent to a neurosurgeon.
Avatar n tn Hello, I don’t think your symptoms are related to fibromyalgia. From your symptoms of ear pain and sore throat on one side of throat it can be due to Eustachian tube dysfunction. For each ear, a eustachian tube runs from the middle ear to the back of the throat and when this tube is blocked then it may cause fluid build up in ear and infections. You can get an examination done from an ENT specialist for these possibilities.
Avatar f tn Not sure what you're saying. You say you have no pain, but a sore throat is pain. I've had tonsilitis, and I was pretty sick for a couple of weeks when I was a college student. Very tired and out of it. You say you have tonsils issue, but don't say what issue. The med you're on isn't the med usually used to treat tonsillitis, so again, confused. Did your doc give you a diagnosis?

Avatar n tn I have headaches that are continuous daily and can be triggered by light, sound, smell, stress, food, and other pain.
