Pain location is downside of right ear at the jaw ending area deep inside throat
.i am not going to visit doctor again because he will surely prescribe antibiotics and that i dont need again. Already i have some problem in my immunse system etc . A very dull or light pain in my face at right upper jaw is also started from 2 days. Headache is alos that the sides of my head like some stress that is started with this throat pains from 2 month back.

Brief Answer:
penile yeast recovered, rt.side adenoid enlargement

Detailed Answer:
Respected XXXXXXX Hi, nice to hear about your recovery.

* Penile irritation or pain don't necessarily confirm that you have yeast dear,
you are recovered now it is your subconscious thinking making you to feel like
this. Can take Fluconazole (150) mg dose at every 3 months (duration for 6
months)
- maintain hydration - keep genitals clean, dry

* Regarding throat irritation and discomfort , right sided adenoid enlargement
Not serious at all.
-Does not need antibiotic
-Can take analgesic tab Acetaminophen (325)mg morning & evening after
meals for 2 days if more head ache / throat discomfort
-Dietary precautions in form of avoiding more oily / spicy / beverages /
chilled items are mandatory
-Gargles with salted lukewarm water & peppermint oil also work nicely
-Turmeric, Tulsi & ginger best ayurvedic herbs for throat

* Multivitamin with zinc will not do any adverse effect on immune system, can
consume it safely.

Hope this clears your query.

Brief Answer:
Respected XXXXXXX ,Fluco. prophylaxis recommended,no big disease in throat

Detailed Answer:
Respected XXXXXXX hi welcome
* Fluconazole is only for prophylaxis purpose which means to prevent possible
fungal infection occurrence , better to be taken when we have suffered from
infection , no harm in taking it in absence of infection for suggested period .
better to take for 2 doses at intervals rather than ending up in more miserable
condition after infection arrives .
* Varying throat pains are in relation to right / left adenoid inflammation , jaw
pain is nerve ending related no big disease inside you have .
* Stress will not cause penile yeast infection directly but stress will suppress
your immune system to fight against any odd infections & that is how it is
making you more prone to any type of infection in body not only penile yest
infection.
- it is possible to have weak immune system without HIV there are so many
innumerable conditions .
Hope this clears your doubts.
Welcome for further assistance.

sir now penile yeast infection pains is also near about finished . only sometimes small irritation or burning i feel. but over all very much improved.
For throat pain its also very much improved but still slight throat pains are during swallowing or a slight tightness is there in throat (front part of neck).
Now sir i have one more question, from some days i am feeling a slight pain in my groin area. its not a permanent pain . For example i felt in morning . may b i will feel in evening or may b next day i will feel. but as you know due to fear of diseases or some kind of health anxiety i have . for every pain i am more alarming. but its a pain not only my thinking. but also its not persistent nor intense. But i am observing from last one week on different occasions . what could be the possible reason ? infact due to throat and ear pains on different locations of throat and jaws plus yeast infection . now i am thinking may b this pain is also related with same sequence. like some lympnodes etc kindly help me out sir.

Thanks for your reply sir.

sir i felt this pain only in right side. and i feel it sligtly towards downside like scortum.
sir i dont have any change in urinary/bowel
Also no swelling outside. even if i press the area i could not locate the pain by pressing the skin. its a mild pain that i fell sometimes. even i have not felt today . But due to a long term throat pains and yeast infection i am more concern about any change.
sir i could not observe any change in walking etc. whenever i felt i was sitting or may b relaxing.
no pain killer taken. only i am taking multivitamins(stresstab with zinc) is there any relation of that with this pain?
weight is also near about same. no vomiting and fever
For food i am just taking homemade food because i am at home. i have may thoughts about lympnodes hernia or Appendix. is that could be a reason.
Sir for throat pains, its very less but sir i am tired with such type of pains that now i am feeling in left side of throat . its less dull but persistant. now i am not doing any gargle etc. only i am taking multivitiminis and one syrup including mulberry extract for throat. is that ok? does my throat pain is something serious ? if not then why its not permanently and completely going to finish. waiting for your reply sir.

Brief Answer:
Groin pain is non-specific at present, throat issue is more stress related.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Welcome back.

* Groin pain is having no relation with taking multivitamin tablets. It might be
in relation with minute gravels passing in ureter/groin ligament related neuronal pain; nothing serious at all.

- Doesn't sound as appendix/hernia, lymph node not likely as there is no
palpable lump under the skin
- drink plenty of liquids
- can take Ultrasound of Pelvis report later on if worries more.

* Throat pain is more of discomfort than pain, the current syrup is ok for that.
It is more of stress related than an organic pathological issue.
It is not likely to get over until you divert your mind from thinking about it, so don't worry so much.

Welcome for further doubts.
Thanks and regard dear.

Sir thanks for you reply.
Now sir i have one question about penile yeast infection. As you know i have this one month back and i was using a cream clotrimazole and once a capsoule of fluconazole. As per my thinking i have much of problem solved but still sir i feel slight irritation and redness on penis or i can say i am not same as before.. (i could not stop myself from masterbeation). now sir i have some questions. is that possible still yeast infection is not finished?
or slight pain in groin could be related to this ?
and as you know sweats cause such problem i am taking one syrup from throat of mulberry. thats is too much sweat. is that could cause again?
and sir i am still using clotrimazole cream. does more use of such cream can cause redness and irritation?
because after all the same fear of hiv comes in my mind and such problems gives me stress.

Brief Answer:
every redness is not yeast,groin pain is not related.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX ,
* Not to consider every redness of penis as yeast infection , it may be due to
other non specific conditions as well . So yeast infection is finished, take out
fear of that.
I will recommend Aloe Vera gel application for slight redness .
No need also to stop masturbation
* Slight groin pain is not related to this .
* Mulberry syrup is not the culprit .
* Much use of clotrimazole cream can cause redness & irritation , just apply thin
layer 2 times a day gently not harshly .
Hope I have made it clear .
Welcome for any further assistance .
Regards dear .

Sir basically location of irritation is same as before but it is very much less then before. i have a fear that these yeast infection i am trying to finish from cream but as i have checked on internet this could be due to some real big cause / disease. thats why i am curious about it.
as i know male yeast infection is not as much common. and has a reason behind it. one more thing i oberved i was having a redness on shaft of penis but it was not itching or burning. now that is reduced. is that something serious? if u will allow me i will send u a picture of this.

Dear XXXXXXX
* There are no obvious reasons / clues for you to take it as real big disease by
checking on the net . So be careful about it but don`t stress / panic for it .
