Question 1

it depends on the std. cephalexin isn't normally used for std treatment. it might cure gonorrhea or, less likely, interfere with a positive gonorrhea test. - does that mean my test result for jan 2 and jan 9 is accurate? i only had cephalexin 3days?

Accepted Answer

: You appear to be referencing an earlier answer that is not generally accessible, so your information is very incomplete, and we can only answer general questions. Please consider scheduling an appointment with a HealthTap primary care doctor or even obtaining an urgent consult for specific medical advice.

Question 2

i have a bacterial std. is cephalexin good treatment for an std like gonorrhea?

Accepted Answer

Please don't self-: Treat. Cephalexin has been used for gonorrhea.  Have you been diagnosed with gonorrhea? Or is this is a guess? Get proper diagnosis and treatment via a medical provider.

Question 3

i had sex three months ago and unfortunately caught an std. doctor said it was the drop/gonorrhea. three months after treatment i went back to the dr's offices asking for std test. he told me if the discharge stopped i'm healed. is it true?

Accepted Answer

: It is very likely. But go ahead and have the test to make certain.

Question 4

i got checked by an ob for std and such, she says i'm safe but my partner was diagnosed with gonorrhea and later on molluscum? now i'm afraid!

Accepted Answer

Treatment needed: Having a partner with gonorrhea, you need treatment for it, and for chlamydia, even if your own gonorrhea and chlamydia tests were negative. You MUST be treated to prevent complications and possibly reinfecting your partner. For molluscum, just keep your eyes out for typical lesions like your partner's; it's harmless, just inconvenient. Check back with your doctor. Good luck!

Question 5

what is meant by std gonorrhea?

Accepted Answer

Bacterial infection.: Neisseria gonorrhea is a bacterium that lives in human body fluids.
N.  Gonorrhea is often referred to as gc, n. Gonorrhea or gonorrhea.
Gonorrhea is transmitted primarily during anal or vaginal sex and occasionally through oral sex. Gonorrhea can be transmitted even when the penis or tongue does not completely enter the vagina, mouth or rectum.

Question 6

if a person has std like gonorrhea, or syphlis or herpes, does it mean  he/she is near to death?

Accepted Answer

No: But these are potentially serious medical conditions that need to be treated promptly for the best long term outcome.

Question 7

how long does each type of std testing results take to come in? my bf said he was negative the same day he was tested could he be lying? gonorrhea

Accepted Answer

Most within 24 hrs.: Most standard std testing results can be obtained within 24 hours depending on the labs availability with the exception of syphilis testing which can take up to 1 week.

Question 8

is there an std you can get on the tongue that is a red circle, is it gonorrhea?

Accepted Answer

A tongue lesion...: ...Can be syphilis or herpes, not gonorrhea (that usually causes a severe throat infection). There is also a harmless, common condition unrelated to sex, called "geographic tongue" which your doctor can easily diagnose.

Question 9

i got treated for gonorrhea this month, my partner went to get tested and they found a lump on testicle. does this mean he had std for a long time?

Accepted Answer

Testicular lump:  No, the lump on the testicle does not mean gonorrhea. But he definitely needs to have further evaluation to establish the correct diagnosis. He probably requires an ultrasound of his scrotum.
