What Causes Swelling And Infection In The Tonsils?

I have had swollen and infected tonsils for 1 1/2 months. I have been prescribed antibiotics 3 separate time. Could oral sex and swallowing semen cause this? Also, I just starting having sex for the first time and I just very recently have had a sensation to be pee and only little pee comes out also burning urination. Is this all a sign to an STD or just a UTI and Tonsillitis?

Hello,

We cannot exactly say your Tonsillitis and Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) or Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD), all because of having sex.

Your tonsils can be due to any kind of infection. Your UTI can be due to the unhygienic care of the vagina. Or it can be STD which has been transmitted from your partner.

But for now, to treat all the infection of your body you take an antibiotic like Amoxicillin, Ofloxacin, Norfloxacin, Levofloxacin, etcetera full course for 5 to 7 days, then all the infection in the body will get treated.

Use safer methods for vaginal sex like using condoms by your partner. Ask your partner to clean his penis often and ask him also to take antibiotics if he is also infectious. Maintain your vagina hygiene also. Also, Use V wash every urination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
