Accepted Answer

See your doctor: Problems like these can only be correctly handled by your doctor in person.  He/she needs to listen to you, perform an examination and possibly run labs or other tests. That's the only way he/she can find out what's going on and what to do about it.

Question 2

what antibiotic can i use for urethritis. when streptococcus species is been cultured gram + cocci is moderate, pus cell is 2-3/hpt, epithelial cell +

Accepted Answer

Rocephin (ceftriaxone) and Doxycyc: Rocephin (ceftriaxone) and doxycycline.

Question 3

how do humans catch streptococcus bovis?

Accepted Answer

Normal flora: Despite the name, which suggests a connection with cattle, the little "green" streptococcus often hangs out in the mouth as a normal inhabitant.

Question 4

how can you get streptococcus mitis?

Accepted Answer

Normal flora: Streptococcus mitis is commonly present in the mouth, gastrointestinal tract, female genital tract, and skin.  It is part of our "normal flora;" the bacteria that are normally present in human beings.  Occasionally, it can cause infection (endocarditis, dental infections, meningitis), but infections are unlikely unless the immune system is depressed.

Question 5

how do you get streptococcus faecalis?

Accepted Answer

Normal flora: Enterococcus faecalis is part of your intestinal flora and is an example of several species that cross the line from symbiosis and colonization to pathogenicity and infection under certain circumstances and causes endocarditis, infects root canals, and causes urinary tract infections and sepsis. Many times it is a nosocomial or hospital acquired infection able to elude the immune system and abx.

Question 6

where can streptococcus faecalis be found?

Accepted Answer

Colon: It is part of the normal flora of the human colon.

Question 7

what is group g streptococcus? does this infect humans?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Please consult this site for information on this topic:
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/15/6/08-0666_article
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 8

why are streptococcus and lactobacillus so important to humans?

Accepted Answer

They really aren't: Strep bacteria often hurt us, causing heart infections, rheumatic fever, tooth decay, and soft tissue infections. If you get involved with cults about stool microbes, they'll tell you that you need to eat special foods loaded with these microbes or your normal body flora and overall health will be ruined. This isn't my focus, but most of these claims seem overstated to me.

Question 9

is streptococcus anginosus contagious?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Transfer of these bacteria from one person to another is frequent but it doesn't necessary lead to infection. I would avoid kissing and coughing into someone's face. General precautions like that.

Question 10

does streptococcus have hemolytic properties?

Accepted Answer

Some types do: There are many different types of streptococci and some have hemolytic properties. See this site for more details:
