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.
with Sinus/allergy problems. He tested me for strep, it was positive, and gave me med for the strep throat. The conditions have gotten worse and now my ear has started to hurt. While blowing my nose i got a real sharp pain in my right ear and now a little brownish disharge is comming out of my ear and it is continuing to hurt. it feels like there is water or some sort of liquid in it and all noises are muffled and there is a mild pain in my ear.
I know strep and allergies are definitely two different things, but it could be that if he has an allergy issue, his nasal passages and throat get irritated from that and then an infection occurs - the strep throat. This past winter I, myself, got strep throat twice and pneumonia once - the first bout of strep actually landed me in the hospital for 4 days.
After a bout of Strep and mono (though I will add that the sore throat was NOT severe in either cases oddly enough, I was swallowing fine and with relatively no pain, just slight irritation), I had noticed my throat seemed very "beat up" per se.

Notice the seemingly cluster of bumps on the back wall, and overall "redness?"
It's weird to me since I have absolutely NO pain, discomfort, or anything.
A couple months ago I noticed pain when swallowing on the right side of my throat. I took a flashlight and saw that my right tonsil was inflamed and covered with white specks. I went to my general physician...she ruled out strep throat. She gave me a 10-day antibiotic...she wasn't quite sure what the problem was. I went through the antibiotic and saw no improvement. That was about a month ago.
Recently, it looks as if the left tonsil is also becoming inflamed/swollen.
Do you see any pus (white spots in the back of the throat or where the injury occurred? It does sound like you may have gotten strep throat or another bacterial infection. It may not have been from the incident but could be a combination of that, which broke the skin, and getting exposed to the bacteria. It would be best to get a throat swab for strep throat. It is a rapid test the doctor can do in the office. Then you can be treated properly.
In the last week I have had throat problems, and it feels like quarter sized sores or something in the lower part of my throat..Every time I swallow it hurts. Two weeks ago, I had strep throat and the dr. prescribed Amoxil twice a day and I felt much better. This feels nothing like the strep throat I had before, and it's constant. Can you give me an idea as to what it might be and which type of doctor I should make an appointment with if necessary? Thank You..
What you are describing sounds more like strep throat. Do you have a fever? Strep throat can be quite painful when swallowing and cause a general feeling of malaise, with whitish "dots" appearing in the back of your throat. If left untreated, strep throat can lead to other more serious complications. You should seek medical attention.
Hey. I'm an 18 year old male.
Two weeks ago, Monday the 7th I went to the doctor with a sever sore throat and was giving Augmentin to take for 10 days (twice a day). My throat was really sore, I had a 103 degree fever, and thyroid glands were swollen. Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen didn't do much to relieve the pain. The rapid strep test said I did not have strep throat, but after looking at my throat a few times the doctor believed the test was wrong and gave me Augmentin.
But If you are being treated for dental problems sometimes certain strains of viridans strep. Strep mutans and Strep. Sanguinis can cause dental cavities if you have a problem with bleeding gums for example.
It is not an STD. You normally have these bacteria and can get them anywhere. Possibly from a kiss since these particular strains like the oral cavity. But if they just said "strep viridans" it could be from the skin or elsewhere.
I've had problems with strep throat all my life, but never as bad as it has been lately - five times in three months, or so. I've been tested for STD's and so has my partner, but it seems like every time I have sex, I come down with strep within a day or two. And not a mild case - within a day, my tonsils have nearly closed my throat, I'm nauseous, and so weak and dizzy that I'm barely able to move. Is it possible that sex is the reason behind this?
m not a doctor but a sore throat with testicular pain can be caused by Strep B. A severe sore throat is one symptom of strep B.
I had a vasectomy done in 1999. I ended up with a hematoma which was removed two days later during an emergency surgery.
A small hole in the scrotum never closed, told not to worry.
A year later I end up with a sore throat headache and a sore swolen left side of the scrotum.
I also have been told I am basically a carrier for strep I test positive every time and the antibiotics don't seem to do crap they run out before I get better! I also had sores all over my body one time from what I read online I would say I had Scarlet fever but the doctor said its exactly like scarlet fever but its not?
