HI audrieyarrito.
THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION.
I WANTED TO KNOW WHICH PART OF YOUR BODY WAS INFECTED-GENITAL,LUNG OR EYE?
I SUPPOSE IT IS CHLAMYDIA VULVOVAGINITIS.THE ONLY MODE OF SPRAY IT IS GENITAL SECRETION SO PLEASE AVOID SEXUAL INTERCOURSE FOR NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS,STOP BATHING IN ANY PUBLIC POND OR PUBLIC BATHROOM AND SAFELY WASH YOUR UNDERGARMENTS AND PROPERLY DISPOSE YOUR TAMPONS.NO NEED TO AVOID FOOD AND DRINKS WITH FRIENDS AS IT DOESNT PROPAGATE BY THAT WAY.
BEST WISHES
