I had sex with someone unprotected a few days ago.. could you have symptoms that quickly if he had something?

I'm pretty sure you can..it depends on the STD, some take years to be noticed, some just a few days.

Go get checked out by your doctor.

Always use a Condom so you wont worry about those things unless it breaks perhaps

unfortunately yes u could easily have a std if the person u slept with had 1.
u should always use protection to be on the safe side.
go to ure Dr or family planning and ask for a swab asap, the sooner u treat an std the better.
Good luck.

Coughing In Dogs – Dog Cough Symptoms and Treatment

Article by Ginny Carroll

It isn’t enjoyable for a doggy any time he’s got a cough, or for you personally. aside from the apparent worry about their well being, their coughing can certainly keep you up during the night. In the event that their cough brings about retching and throwing up, you could have much more housekeeping duties to do!

Despite the fact that there are usually countless reason behind why your dog might cough, why don’t we take a look at the most typical causes.

Parasitic organisms

Heartworms are usually dispersed through mosquitos and reside within the right section of your doggie’s heart as well as within the blood vessels leading out of the heart to the lung. They aggravate those blood vessels and also additionally conflict with blood circulation, eventually leading to cardiovascular failure.

You can easily provide your pet preventive medicine to be able to prevent him from getting heartworm disease. These types of medicines do not really avoid an infection with heartworm, however they will eliminate the baby worms just before they begin to develop into adults and thus can easily start to cause your dog any specific damage.

Bacterial infections

In the event that your dog frequently visits a dog kennel or daycare, they might possibly be in danger of contracting kennel cough. This is actually a simple name for a extremely transmittable upper respiratory system infection that brings about inflammation involving a dog’s pharynx and also windpipe. the actual infection is usually usually brought on by a virus known as Parainfluenza, assisted and abetted by means of bacteria recognized as Bordetella.

Those pair of offenders tend to be liable for the majority of instances of kennel cough in canines. Even though you could vaccinate your pet against kennel cough, it is not really one hundred percent defensive plus your dog might also contract an infection. Luckily, for the majority of dogs kennel cough is not a serious condition and therefore they will get better pretty fast.

Heart Disease

We have previously discussed on heart failure while we were talking on the subject of heartworm. Any time your doggie’s heart is not functioning properly, it is not as efficient in pumping blood via his system. that indicates that their blood pressure rises and then there may end up being seapage of fluid within their lungs. the consequence is usually a cough that appears to be more serious during the nighttime.

Certainly, there are usually numerous origins of heart failure in canines, which includes a weakness associated with the specific heart muscle as well as damage involving the small valves inside of the heart. Treatment method will depend on the underlying cause, therefore bring your dog around to your current veterinarian in order to find out what is taking place with your doggy. a prognosis of cardiovascular disease can certainly be frightening however together with modern-day medicine, it is in all likelihood that your dog can possess a very good high quality of living for quite a few years to come.

Bronchitis

In the event that your pet is older, they might begin to cough a good deal more. that occurs mainly because their breathing passages can be significantly less flexible. Thus the small tiny hairs, known as cilia, which line their airways grow to be not quite so efficient.

The cilia’s duty is simply to help progress mucus upward and out of the respiratory system, and in the event that they do not perform this properly, generally there may end up being more mucus in your pups bronchi. that mucus can cause your dog to cough even more. Your animal medical practitioner may recommend medicine that can serve to relieve your older dog’s cough.

It is not unusual for a dog to tremble or shake when he is ill. However, as I mentioned in my article, Dog Trembling – Trembling and Shaking Symptoms In Dogs, an infection may not be the only reason for the trembling.

Treatment methods associated with coughing in dogs may include anti-biotics, anti-inflammatories as well as humidifiers. However prior to attempting anything at all at home, make an consultation with your veterinarian. when you understand the reason why your dog is usually coughing, you will wind up being in a position to begin the proper therapy for their condition, plus he will quickly start to feel a more like his old self.

My next article in this series, Symptoms of Depression In Dogs, will deal with dog depression symptoms and treatment.

Our dogs are like family to us and so naturally it’s very upsetting when they become sick. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you knew how to give your dog a check-up, so you could spot a problem early? Before it became truly serious or even life threatening?

Well, now you can!

It's not really necessary, yet. Wait until he gets older and see if it seems to be really affecting his ability to learn. right now you don't really need to worry about it. it might go away or it might not even be there (you can't really diagnose it yourself). Just wait and see what happens.

My mom has gone to the gynecologist, and she today saw minor bleeding that had nothing to do with period. She said that she needs to wait a month for the results, and I'm really scared. I googled the symptoms and it mentioned the bleeding, but nothing else. Are there any other symptoms such as weight loss or stuff like that? if there is a doctor answering this, please tell me everything you know. but please, simplify it, since I'm not such a whiz with medical terms.

Thanks for answering.

I have your answer I probed google, yahoo and alexa and institute this
check it out

Early cervical cancer has few symptoms. That's why annual pap smears are important.

Bleeding outside of a period is very common has many many causes. Fibroids and endometriosis are two very common ones. both are treatable.

I would not worry until there is reason to worry. Cancer is possible but less likely to be the cause than other reasons.

I agree with Bonzema- try to keep a positive mind until you have an answer. there are many many reasons to have spotting and it sounds like you and your mom are doing all you can do at this time. that is all that can be asked. I hope everything turns out well for you and her.

Is the health of the pancreas psychosomatic is it effected much like an ulcer does the stomach with worry. Is it a symptom of emotional disorder and the result of eating improperly?

Overactive bladder treatment has come a long way. now you don’t have to live with the worry that you’ll have to rush to find a bathroom, or have an accident, when there are so many different options available to control the condition. Lifestyle interventions such as bladder retraining and pelvic floor exercises and medications are just a few of the methods your doctor might recommend to relieve the urge to go.

Even with so many treatment choices for overactive bladder, you might be curious about what other, alternative options are out there, including herbal remedies. “I think people may turn to these herbal therapies if they’ve tried other things and they haven’t worked, or if they just have a preference for that with their lifestyle choices,” says Tomas L. Griebling, MD, MPH, vice chair of the University of Kansas department of urology.  

The herbal supplements you’ve seen advertised on the Internet or lining the shelves of your local pharmacy claim they can relieve your overactive bladder with virtually no side effects. you might have wondered, do these herbal remedies really work for overactive bladder, or are they nothing more than marketing hype?

Herbal Remedies for Overactive Bladder: the Evidence

Ask a urologist which herbal remedies he or she recommends for overactive bladder, and you’re likely to get more questions than answers. “The problem is, we don’t really know, because a lot of these things haven’t been tested in a really scientific way,” Griebling says. “We don’t have good, objective information about what the risks or dangers are.”  

As director of the Integrative Urological Center at NYU’s Langone Medical Center, Geovanni Espinosa, ND, LAc, CNS, specializes in alternative and naturopathic treatments for urinary tract problems, and he agrees that the research on herbal remedies for overactive bladder is virtually nonexistent. “There are herbs that are used traditionally,” he says. “Whether or not they work, I don’t know.”  

Without medical studies, he says there’s no way of knowing how these treatments affect the urinary tract. “That’s the limitation. you don’t know exactly how they work until they’re looked at scientifically.”  

Even without solid evidence to support their use, a few herbal remedies are formulated specifically for overactive bladder. most of the herbal preparations contain not one, but several different herbs combined. Incorporating a variety of herbs is thought to have a synergistic effect, addressing a urinary problem from several different angles at once, Espinosa says.  

Here are some of the most commonly used herbal remedies for overactive bladder, and how some experts think they work:

Gosha-jinki-gan: one of the best-studied herbal remedies for bladder problems is gosha-jinki-gan, which is made from a combination of several different herbs. A couple of small studies out of Japan found that gosha-jinki-gan improved urinary urgency, frequency, nighttime urination, and quality of life in both men and women with overactive bladder. Based on animal studies, researchers believe this herbal supplement increases bladder capacity and reduces the number of bladder contractions via its effects on the nervous system.  

recently i have chest pain… (not heavy sensations… it rather "scratch" like)
i thought it was angina or heart disease
then i went to see 3 doctors (1 internist and 2 cardiologist)
after i ran for some tests (Blood Test, X Ray, EKG, and Stress Test Treadmill)
everything is normal and appropriate…
the doctors assured me that i'm ok…
they diagnosed my chest pain caused by indigestion…

now…
there are things that makes me worry again…
if my chest pain is not heart related pain…
then why do sometimes i feel my chin (jaw line) pain and my left arm tingling comes and goes ?
(tho' they appear with or without chest pain and not radiating like the heart attack symptoms, and i dont have shortness of breath)

it worries me…

Im 26 years old… 170 cm and 80kg…
I still could run without having chest pain…

thank you…

You more than likely have pinched muscles in your back. When pinched they tend to tighten up making it hard to breathe, it can make it feel like you have a car on your chest. When tight, muscles can make some of the other problems you indicate happen. If this is not all of the problem it will be the biggest part of it. Here is how to release those muscles to get rid of the pain:
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder and find the muscles next to your spine and press on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. then reverse your hand positions and do your right side.

I have been to several doctors that say im ok no problems but i am obsessed by worry about things I feel .I start looking up symptoms and start worrying .Why cant I stop doing this and read happy things .I try but I always go back to looking things up about health and the heart and always finds something usually that I rather not find .How an I stop this ?Can someone recommend something happy to read?yes I take meds am seeing a therpist but he isnt here with me late at night telling me no.I have never been this obsessed before but I hear my heart beat all the time very clearly it worries me and is very annoying.I have been told its a benign condition I have to live with it but is hard not to think of anything else..Anyone have any good links that they can share to take my mind off of this?please no smart answers im depressed enough .Thanks

What about health, happiness and trancendence? What about thinking of other people? they need your help.

Maybe more walking and talking and dancing would help.

I do Sudoku or something similar before going to bed to help me 'switch off".

I Am Obsessed With Looking up Things about Medical Symptoms but Dont like What I Find It Scares Me?… i am obsessed by worry about things…” Why can’t I stop….I have never been this obsessed before…Yes I take meds am seeing a therpist but he isnt here with me late at night telling me no… it worries me and is very annoying… im depressed enough

You are NOT allright. at this point you should be questioning the quality of the help you have been receiving. I get the distinct impression the quality of your care is substandard, and that you should be looking for another - and better - psychiatrist. Just look at the following list: it looks for all the world like a buffet table and you have on your plate a serving from EACH of the three Tables [CLASSES of psychiatric disorders]:

1). Anxiety disorders (definition of anxiety, anticipatory anxiety, GAD, phobias, panic, panic disorder, PTSD, agoraphobia, social phobia, specific phobia, obcessive-compulsive disorder, obsession, compulsion)

2). Mood disorders (depression, major depression, mania, bipolar disorder, possible causes, attributional style, lithium carbonate, biochemical factors, zeitgeber, seasonal affext disorder)

3). Somatoform disorders (somatoform disorder, somatization disorder, hypochondriasis, conversion disorder)

My advice to you is dump your doctor and replace him/her with someone who is actually competent.

Good Luck and happy new Year

Oh I know exactly how you feel, I am the same way, well at least I used to be. I used to watch TV and there would be a commercial about diabetes, or cancer, or even AIDS…I know, it's crazy, but for some reason I would just get paranoid about it and start trying to find symptoms, that I didn't even have…I don't feel that way anymore, because I went to the doctor, and got a checkup and everything was fine…I guess it's just that, the things you think you feel is what you really don't want to feel, but in your mind you do…So your mind is really making you think that you are really feeling symptoms when you really don't….it's just allin your mind..and you just have to find something else to do, whether it's reading a book, watching TV, going out….or anything to keep you away from medical books, or the internet…If the doctors say u are healthy, then ur healthy and you have nothing to worry about…you can't let your fears control your life, just find something that you like to do…and you will eventually stop thinking like this….trust me….I wish you the best!

This is a good question, a lot of people do that, and they don't like what they learn or read. well you know, when a lot of those books were written, a lot was not yet known. Daily they learn more and more about all kinds of Medical conditions. And you have already admitted it , that you are obesessed with this, and being obsessed is a scary thing in its self. I don't go lookin up things, cause sometimes a person may think that they have it and they don't. but i would tell you you need help with your obsession, and that would be with a professional that treats that. It is inherited, and it will keep a hold on you, and will get worse, so you really need to go and get help for that now. How to kind of control it, and not let it get the best of you. cause it will if it can. It has gotten some really famous people in its life. And they had money to get help, or build a wall around them. I didn't, and i just could not live with it. So instead of looking up all those things about medical symptoms and go get help for your obsessiveiness. Do it now, you will not be sorry. And they stuff you read, remember, some of it is outdated, and some things they are just touching on after hundreds of years of studing it. And some of the books leave no room for that gray area, it is black or white, can't be any way else . well the people with those disorders, dieases, are now saying yea, i know what i feel, and what i am going though, so how about getting an open mind on a few things here. We are not still in the cave man days. And everyone is different . Hope that helps a little, but PLEASE get some help here soon……take care…..god bless…..yes read the Dog Days of Arthur Caine, or even Logon's run, which the movie could not even begin to make from the book. It may be short, but packed. There are a lot of really good books out there, some short, and some thousand of pages long, and true stories, that are really interesting . So go look for a good book and curley up and keep warm, and read a book that will make you happy, and really enjoy the book, and the words that are written in it………..

Happy Hoildays

are you a hypochondriac? Just get a hobby that takes up alot of your time

I can relate to this. The internet, although awesome, has brought the overuse of- "self-diagnosis". I am very guilty of this. every day I have some new condition. Just last week I had hyperthyroid, hypothyroid, diabetes, and scoliosis. I think the only way to truly get over it is by getting a diagnosis from a qualified professional that you believe in. If you have a final say on your medical issue then you can proceed with confidence. Don't give up on finding the cause. If you don't like the opinion get another. If you are confident with your current diagnosis then move on…..it appears that all is well with your health. Don't try to find a problem when there is none. when I need a stress relief, I read. I happen to love reading fantasy novels. (I am 31 and some would say to old to read books like Harry Potter) It is fun to delve into a different world for a few hours. good luck on your quest. You seem smart and conscientious, you will find a way!

I have had bad moods and not as sharp but am also under more stress which can explain that. I've had neck pain before but usually after sleeping on the couch. Hate to say it's coincidence but I do tend to be paranoid and htink I have everything I see. I had a tick bite no dr told me only worry if a rash appears.

You've hit on one of the most frustrating aspects of Lyme disease. it can mimic many other diseases, and there is NO definitive lab test. Only about half of Lyme patients actually have the famous bulls-eye rash.

Bad moods and brain fog and neck pain can all be symptoms of Lyme disease. (But none of them are definitive.) However, since you have a known tick bite, it's a reasonable thing to suspect.

Unfortunately, most docs don't know very much about Lyme disease. Do your own research, and then pursue the help you need to get well. If it is Lyme, you want to lick it sooner rather than later. Delays in treatment can turn into long-term problems.
