Your report say klebsiella pneumonia. And you used various antibiotics did not mention the sensitivity and duration used. Please do not blame allopathic doctor for your fault. After completing complete course of antibiotic you near to repeat culture and sensitivity of sputum once again. There is endemic of antibiotic resistance bacterial infections due to antibiotic abuse. So if you have a resistant bacteria you need to be treated in hospital with iv antibiotics till you get rid of the cause. Hope you understand this now and go and get the said test again.

My penis is easily reddened, especially at the head part. Rashes on the same area are frequently seen as well. I think it is surely Yeast infection - The most common type of male yeast infection is the one affecting the male reproductive organ. Sexual dysfunction, burning sensation during sex, reddened penis head and blistered penile trunk are the most common signs and symptoms of yeast infection. Pls. Suggest medicine.

Hello, this seems like fungal infection , but a swab culture is mandatory for confirmation. Medicines cannot be prescribed through free queries like that.

Health Query

I'm 25 years old indian. I started to have burning in clitoris in 2017. Earlier it was only some days but from past one year I have this burning almost all the time. I get this constant irritation in clitoris and have urge to urinate throughout the day. It just never feel normal down there. I don't have pain in vulval region, but nothing helps in burning. Even touch with water causes discomfort down there in clitoris .on touch it feels too tense. I have also been diagnosed with interactive bladder. And have been told to do catheterization 5-6 times a day but my area is too sensitive. It hurts too much if it gets touched on clitoris or just below it. I have tried icepack nad taken amitriptyline for 3 months .nothing seems to help I feel hopeless.

Asked for female, 38 years old from Bangalore

I am having recurrent urinary tract infection. I have got my urine culture done and taken antibiotics course many times. Actually, I am trying to conceive, so what I have noticed is that after 4-5 days of intercourse, I get this infection back. When I checked with my gynaecologist, she said it is your infection only, nothing related to your husband. Can anyone tell me why it is happening only after frequent intercourse, otherwise I remain perfectly fine? Does my husband need to undergo any test? Please tell me.
