Common Questions and Answers about Throat ulcers virus

throat

Avatar f tn Did your doc even bother to do a strep test or anything? Strep throat can also cause ulcers in the throat and mouth and strep is definitely something that neeeds to be treated with antibiotics.
Avatar m tn I developed mouth ulcer 30 yeas ago. I had them everyday for years. Then had upper GI done. They found my sphincter doesn't close all the way. Treat was Prilosec (omeprisole) for 14 day and swish with Maalox to heal. That has work up until about a month or so ago. Now they are in my throat and the said treatment doesn't seem as affected. I view it as I caught a virus and is activate when you have a gastric episode. I had an EMT look at my throat. He said he saw healing and no concerns.
Avatar m tn The HIV patient has sore throat and throat ulcers. Immediately without sterilizing the equipment, the doctor used the same spoon like equipment to check my throat. I am worried, whether I will get HIV infection. Please help. The spoon like equipment might have contacted the sore throat and throat ulcers of the HIV patient and it could have contacted me too. Please help with your suggestions.
Avatar f tn I was assessed by an infection disease doctor next to my house, and after he took history and checked the vesicles in the back of my throat he indeed said that most likely the virus is HSV1 and not anything else...
Avatar m tn htm As for apthous ulcers, they may be small shallow ulcers to larger ones termed major apthae. The cause of apthous ulcers is unclear and they may be triggered by stress, diet and even viral infections. Herpes has been implicated but not directly so as one of the causes. (http://www.aafp.org/afp/20000701/149.html). These disease conditions may be self limiting. Mucocele are clear bumps on the lip and may resolve spontaneously. Cold sores and apthous ulcers have no definite form of treatment.
Avatar n tn After the headache and back pain subsided, I got severe sore throat (with some ulcers on the back of my throat) with night fevers and myalgia on my right thigh that lasted for 2 weeks, I went to two different throat specialists who gave me antibiotics, anti inflammation drugs and even anti Chlamydia antibiotics. Nothing worked. But I tried to stay active and not stay in bed anymore.
Avatar f tn My cousin is throwing up blood for a month now and the doctor said she has a virus that causes ulcers. What else could this be? she had some blood work including pt/ptt but no results are back yet..
Avatar m tn I had a dermatologist of many years look at the sores/dots and he said they resembled the coxsackie virus. Dots at the back of the throat are much more characteristic of coxsackie than where they are in my mouth but the virus symptoms usually does not last anywhere near as long as yours has (unless you have an immunodeficiency). I would see a general physician or std specialist about this seeing as it’s gone on for so long. Hope this helps and best of luck.
Avatar n tn On November 28 I had a Determine COMBO rapid test and was negative, but the sore throat and oral ulcers/white tonge/thrush continue. I am so nervous... Do you thinks that I could be infected?
Avatar m tn m 40 and two weeks ago had lower back surgery. I had a small fever blister but forgot about it. Two weeks go by and I noticed all these ulcers in my mouth along my cheek and back of the throat. I panicked and went to see the doc. He said it was the type 2 herpes but only gave me 2 valtrex pills at 1gm each. What's going on? Was this always inside me since I'd get fever blisters? I'm scared and frustrated and I'm scared I could passed this on to my gf.
Avatar m tn i was a bit sceptical, he offered to do a strep throat test but he didnt think it was strep throat as my throat is fine, so we didnt do the test. However over the last 3 days i have developed red areas on the inside of my lips and also above my upper teeth, not red around my teeth but further up. its also quite inflamed. i still have the sores at the back of my throat but my toncit area is now also red. im worried of gingervitis (sorry abou that spelling!
Avatar m tn I had a severe throat pain and inflammation for 2 weeks. So, yesterday (22nd April), I went to a throat doctor in India. Before me, the doctor was attending a patient who is both HIV positive & Hep-B positive. This patient suffers from mouth ulcers. The doctor used a local anesthetic spray to spray on the mouth and throat of the HIV patient. I placed the anesthetic spray photo in www.flickr.com/photos/123812506@N06 .
Avatar f tn People don't get HIV from oral sex. The ways that people transmit HIV are from unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing of IV drug needles. The HIV virus is fragile and is inactivated by saliva. So, you don't have to worry about HIV. Even with an ulcer in the corner of your mouth. HIV is not a concern.
Avatar n tn 4 days after I returned home I sat on the internet searching for details on symptoms. Around this time I had a sore throat which last for about 4-5 days, I put this down to the usual sore throat after the 12 hour flight home. However 2 weeks after returning home I started to feel slight tenderness and aching in my joints and in my knees. I regret initially looking up the symptoms because I then thought that I had a strange feeling under my armpits.
Avatar m tn throat where I get small ulcers in the back from post nasal drip. Your 13 week test is conclusive. Your throat ulcers have nothing to do with HIV.
Avatar m tn and as you noted yourself, the lymph node enlargements in ARS usually are not so localized. However, severe sore throat plus oral ulcers with regional lymph node inflammation suggest you may have acquired oral herpes during the sexual encounter -- i.e. HSV-1 by kissing or, less likely, HSV-2 if your exposure included cunnilingus. Although oral ulcers indeed are sometimes reported in conjunction with ARS, they are less frequent than most other ARS symptoms.
Avatar f tn I got fully tested for all STI's including HIV almost 2 months ago. During that time I was sleeping with my "bf" unprotected but was routinely getting tested and even tested after our relationship ended. I was negative. However, a month ago I slept with this guy I met on tinder (my bf and I had stopped sleeping together). I've always used condoms when I slept with anyone else (besides my bf of course).
Avatar n tn On November 16, due to the efforts to cough I bleed a little bit. I noted dry throat and oral ulcers. And thrush (candida). I had my duo test for hiv and sifilis after 29 days from my first exposure being negative. The synthomps remain. I read that oral ulcers and thrush is connected with HIV. Could be other StD? I am in panic.
Avatar m tn I started having fever about 3 weeks back with swollen tonsils and ulcers. I was diagnosed strep throat and started taking medicines but after 4 days, my fever went up to 105-106 range. Test results showed no strep throat, flu, swine etc. I rushed to emergency and they diagnosed me for Pharynogontonsillitis. For a week before I went to emergency I barely could swallow anything. I grew weak and they gave me Glucose by drip and also Decadron.
Avatar m tn viral pharyngitis, perhaps with strep throat on top of the virus. However, the same symptoms could have been caused by initial oral herpes, either from kissing (HSV-1) or perhaps HSV-2, if you performed oral sex on your partner. However, the timing was late for herpes; initial symptoms usually start around 3-5 days after exposure; 2 weeks is possible but unusual. Also, the initial symptoms usually would include multiple painful oral sores, in addition to the sore throat.
Avatar f tn Four days ago, I visited the doctor about my still-sore throat. He said I had herpangina, a non-STD virus. However, everything I've read about herpangina says that it clears up within a week max. I have had these bumps and pain for over three weeks now, so I'm wondering... Is there a chance I have oral warts due to HPV? Because I can't really see the bumps/ulcers/sores due to their location, how can I tell? Should I go back to the doctor?
Avatar f tn My symptoms are sore throat, sever neck pain and cough.
Avatar m tn I went to doctors September 4th and they said it was something viral and prescribed miracle mouthwash and swabbed and did a throat culture. When I used the mouthwash the ulcers disappeared overnight almost. The girl recently got diagnosed with Chalmydia. The guy got tested for everything came out clean including chalmydia. But hasn't even tested for herpes yet. I'm worried that I got herpes from her and just freaking out.
Avatar f tn Even if a person is having bleeding gums or sore throat or mouth infections or cuts or ulcers in mouth then too this theory will work
Avatar f tn I have a sore on my tongue that's been there awhile. The ear nose & throat doctor said it is irritation & hard to heal. I'm taking Lysine tablets 500 mg 3xs daily. Just started .I have seen L-Lysine ointment by basic organics. People use it for core sores & ulcers on the inside of lip. Would it be safe to dab a small amount on my tongue to help battle this condition faster. It is painful & very frustrating.
