How Long Does It Take To Cure Gonnerrhea?
Hi, I suspected that I may have gotten gonnerrhea and have been taking tetracycline for a little over a week now. Ive noticed that the severe burning sensation has subsided but still slightly present. Also the discharge has been reduced however its still present. I also had two rashes on my genital area that had a bit of a discharge completely disappear after taking the medication. I was wondering how long does it take to completely rid myself of these symptoms?

Hi
welcome to HCM
if I were your treating doctor I would have advised you to take tetracycline group of drug Doxycycline 100 mg twice in a day for 7 days
if you are still having the similar symptoms even after the full course of antibiotics please visit your doctor for culture and sensitivity test of discharge or first voided urine sample
have plenty of fluids and juices of fresh fruits
practise and maintain good hygiene
good food with multivitamin supplements to boost your vitality
Exercise and adequate sleep
Hope this helps you
thanks for your question
wish you good health
take care
