Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Had Oral Sex. Glands Coated With White Spots, Discomfort, Loss Of Appetite, Swelling, Fluid Removal. Worry?
1 week post performing oral sex my glands became coated with white spots. Negative strep test. Took 875 mg amoxicillin for ten days twice a day and the spots are still there after two weeks. What could be the reason? There was mild discomfort at first. I think I had a cold on top if this unknown throat issue. it has happenend.before but.last time my glands were swollen for three months, I lost appetite and.20 pounds. Biopsy was done on my glands and came back inconclusive....shortly after fluid removal from glands they went.back to.normal so I did.not worry about it ...what could this mean?
I understand your concerns. I believe that you have a throat infection to be concerned about and wonder if you have had a throat swab for culture and sensitivity sent. If not done, it would be appropriate to do it right away and also to have yourself check out by a psychiatrist who can order the screening panel for sexually transmitted diseases. I hope this helps answer your questions. The glands going back to normal may indicate drainage of pus which may have been accumulated in your lymph nodes.
Take care and have a lovely day!
