I was told my son has thrush on Aug. 8. I have been giving him his medicine the way I was told to and the thrush still hasn’t disappeared. Should I call his doctor or is it too soon to be freaking out?

He no longer has the infection or blockage and is peeing freely (he make full pees without struggle). Ubfortunately, he seems to have also decided that he does not like his litter box. I’ve switched litter a couple of times and keeps the boxes very clean. Any advice? Thanks

What kind of vaginal infection could this be?




I don’t know what it is and I’m not going to the doctors for a few days. I thought it was a yeast infection since I’m on antibiotics, but the diflucan did nothing (I took it 4 days ago). I have a mucousy looking discharge that is sickly sweet smelling. It’s been very itchy, and it’s bloody from the scratching and the infection. The smell seems to get worse after I urinate. I’m having sharp pains in my side, though I’m not sure it’s related.

I’m sexually active, but I’m monogomous and he’s the only partner I’ve ever had. He had sex once before, but he said he was tested. We’ve always used a condom during vaginal intercourse.

I know you’re probably not doctors out there, but I was just hoping this sounds familiar to someone so I can have an idea of what it may be. Thanks.

How long does a yeast infection last?




I noticed symptoms of a yeast infection on Friday. I immediately went home and used a one day treatment kit. The major symptoms went away about a day later - no more discharge or itching … but I still dryness and the area is still tender. How long does that usually last?

Does my dog have a urinary tract infection?




Crazy question, but my mom’s dog had one once. How do you know if they do?

She’s constantly having to go outside. She doesn’t just walk nicely up to the door - she DEMANDS to go out, barking loud and what not. Then, when we get out, she tries to be a couple times but nothing really comes out. Sometimes it does, but sometimes she’ll squat and nothing.

Are there any other symptoms to look for?

I’m currently in the second week of a 2-week 8 pill per day antibiotic regimen. The antibiotics are for an h. pylori infection in my stomach. I believe that the antibiotics are working, but I want to restore my intestinal health with a good probiotic. I selected one that I think will work for me. Is it okay to start it now? Or should I wait a while before I begin it? Thanks in advance.

sometimes the smell is unbearable and im worried. Its been going on for a couple months. Any ideas of what it can be?

What position should you start to time the period and why? Should you start to time the period straight away or wait, and if so for how long (how many oscillations)? If the length is fixed should you use a long or short pendulum to increase precision? If the mass is fixed should you use a large or small mass to increase precision? What are possible sources of error and how can they be reduced? A stopwatch is being used to measure the period, and the pendulum models a simple pendulum consisting of a string tied to a heavy spherical bob.

Oral Candidiasis? Strep?




This morning I woke up with a slightly sore throat on one side. After a few hours of pain I looked in the mirror and I saw a few small red bumps in the back of my mouth that look like pimples. One has a white head on it. Additionally, the back of my tongue is whitish/yellow. I can’t tell if its more than normal. Also, it feels like the lymph nodes on my neck (only on the side with the sore) are slightly swollen. I have no other symptoms. I just finished a course of antibiotics. Could this be oral candidiasis? Or do you think its strep? Thanks.

Also, what are the chances of getting an STD from having sex one time.

I’ve been on the Candida diet for 2 days and taken probiotics, garlic pill, fresh garlic, a acid like coconut oil and feel bloated but headaches could it already be dieing off a little? I eatsmall salads, much water and had 1 100% brown rice today. I do pee alot. I don’t have vaginal yeast infection. I did do the spittle test and it was positive does that mean I have it orally too? I font have white on my tongue. I know I have it GI wise.
