Rise in CRP alone can not diagnose a patient having sepsis. CRP can be rised in simple cold with high grade fever also and once the fever resolved and decreases CRP came down as you have mentioned. LRTI can be diagnosed by examining patients chest. It can be viral or bacterial and CRP can be rised in any of them. This much antibiotics or medication is not required in LRTI and none in viral. Sepsis is related to complications if it is in real present. Blood culture and patients symptoms both if l...more

Lizokef contains linezolid which is an antibiotic and can cause dry mouth and taste problems, but if you are having shortness of breath post surgery then please consult a cardiologist at once as it cannot be because of lizokef.

My niece is 18 years old, she has mdr tb with meningitis. She has completed almost 8 month treatment with below medicines, she is on amikacin 600 mg * 5 days a week injection for almost 8 months, along with dexa 0.5 mg (steroid). Dexa tapered from 12 mg to 1 mg gradually, but she has developed avn so dexa 1 mg suddenly stopped. After 3 days of dexa 1 mg stopped, she stared to get fever & vomiting & neck pain. Is it due to dexa stopped? Her doctor suspects this fever is because of one of the mdr tb drug so she has suggest to stop all mdr tb medicines. Also yesterday when were checking her fever, the bip of thermometer she is not able to hear, even we brought the thermometer close to her ear even then also was not able to hear but what we speak she can here clearly. Is it because of amikacin? Should we stopped amikacin as only 10 days left to complete 8 months amikacin course. What would be the next plan about amikacin if the problem is like this. Request you to please suggest at the earliest. Amikacin 600 mg * 5 days a week ethionamide 250 mg 1-1 linezolid 300 mg clofazimine 100 mg cycloserine 250 mg 1-1 moxifloxacin 400 mg dexa 4-4-4 18 days then taper off.

Get hearing tested. Amicin can be stopped. Cause of fever need assessment. Drug failure or any other cause.

Asked for male, 0 years old from Kolkata

Gd evening everyone, here i'm writing this msg for the purpose of seeking advice from all of you regarding a prob that I have been facing since 2017. Actually I have been having a repetitive case of uti since 2017. I have seen many renowned doctors in kolkata particularly in forte, apollo and medica but they could not manage to treat my problem. First time it was mrsa doctor prescribed me with doxycycline which I took for almost a month. The symptoms went away but after 4-5 months it reappeared again. Since that time it's been coming at an interval of 5-6 months. From 2019 onwards the root cause has been e.coli.i have tried doxy, nitrofurantoin, linezolid, bactrim, levo as of now but whenever I take medications the symptoms go away then again reappears after 4 to 5 months. In oct 2021 I got an urs done to check what actually has happened inside but doctor didn't find anything. The most surprising thing is that urine culture doesn't come positive all the time but still the symptoms are present and creatinine level is 1 or sometimes 1.1 nd others blood reports are also normal. Now a days i'm experiencing a pain in my groin areas and back. I think now this untreated infection has led to pyelonephritis don't know what I should do right now. If doctors from forte, apollo can't even treat the prob then whom should I go to with this case? please give me some suggestions to get rid of this permanently.

Health Query

My 6 year old boy right wrist bones fractured, jc wire inserted, after 48 days jc wire removed becoz of bone infection, high fever, debridement done. Linezolid prescribed for mrsa bacterial infection for 6 weeks. Surgical wound healed and stopped antibiotic started physiotherapy after 6 months taking x-ray showed 90 percent bone joined. Due to physiotherapy surgical wound slowly started oozing pushing. My question is right now he is not having any fever, but everyday 2-3 drops of pus coming out even though dressing is done and wound covered, is there still bone infection or superficial infection? For mrsa infection antibiotic should be given for 6 weeks or 3 months. Which is correct? Some doctors telling to stop antibiotic if there is no fever bcoz bacteria might get resistance. Some doctors due to pus suggesting to continue for 3 months please help.

Hi Sir, If there is no fever & no signs of inflammation at the wound site, antibiotics can be stopped.

Asked for male, 32 years old from Kolkata

I am 30 year old male. I am suffering from recurring abscess on my buttocks. First time it started on first week of february when physician treated me with antibiotics after doing usg test. Wound healed in 1 week. Again in second week of may, another abscess came near to same area. Doctor asked me get admitted immediately and referred me to surgeon. They did surgery next day and cut a lump of 3cm2cm1.5cm through excisional biopsy. Histopathology report that came after 5 days shows" infected epidermal inclusion cyst. It takes 20 days to get that wound healed. They have given antibiotic" linezolid 600 mg" for 7 days twice daily. Wound heeled but again new abscess started on other butt. I met physician again who took some tests. Sugar tests came in normal range. But crp test shows 1.7mg/dl against <0.5 normal range. Some blood test also deviates such as wbc 12000, platelets dropped to 1.18 in place 1.48 on day of surgery. Esr rate was 17 & eosinophils showing 35, mcv 80.7. Others things in complete hamogram was nomal. Physician has given cap augmentin 625 thrice daily, and rifampicin 600 and bactiv once daily for 10 days. I have also history of pulmonary tuberculosis in 2005 where I complete full dosage of 9 months and no symptom after that. Kindly tell if I need to do anything else and these medicine is solving the root cause problem and not such subsidizing wound? thx in advance.

Avoid long hour sitting, spicy food, hot drinks, hard drinks. Get your biopsy and pus culture again and take antibiotic for a long period. In my opinion single refampicin should not be taken as its a most potent anti tb drug and cause drug resistace even after short duration use.

Initial treatments were all systemic, but most antibiotics do not reach seminal vesicles at effective levels and thus are not successful [3], [4]. Among the antibiotics used systemically, penicillin procaine, trimethoprim sulfa, neomycin sulphate, gentamicin, and amikacin sulphate are the ones most reported.
Continue in touch of urologist please.

Asked for male, 29 years old from Mumbai

Subject: redness, pain, stingy, inflammation, urethral meatus, penis opening, urethra, balanitis, inflamed penis head, friction, sharp pain, peeing, ejaculation. Please note: so I have mentioned all the possible keywords in the subject that will bring everybody suffering from the same problem here. I am a non-smoker and non-drinker and uncircumcised. I take care of my health a lot. I regularly workout. This problem started 4 months back and i'm still suffering from it. So someone out there who cracked the solution, please help as you can see in the pictures, my meatus/urethral opening is red and inflamed. Symptoms: 1) the tip of penis stings when there is a call for urination. 2) it burns like hell after masturbation. But does not burn after a night fall. Which means friction could be causing this. 3) there is a mild burn throughout the day. 4) some drops of urine are left in the head of the penis after urination. 5) and redness and swelling in the size of the meatus is prominent and the tip/opening of the urethra is visibly bright red. History: I have been through the top most urologists in the country but still they couldn't solve this. It started from diagnosis like prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis and urethritis. But I believe they were all false. I have taken tonnes of antibiotics, so much that I have lost 10 kgs of body weight. They made me do urine culture and semen culture, but I believe all the reports were false as they showed a bacteria of enterococcus faecalis. I took linezolid antibiotics that treat this but it did not help. Tests I conducted: 1) urine and semen culture (latest - sterile) 2) psa - prostate antigen (normal) 3) hsv herpes 1 & 2 (negative) 4) usg of abdomen and pelvis (everything normal and no traces of stones.) medication I took till date: 1) I took strong doses via i.v. Of cefoperazone sulbactam 1.5gm twice7 days. 2) then I took flavoxate drug and cranpac-d'mannose which gave me more burn. 3) then amoxicillin/clavulanate 2x10 days 4) doxycycline for 14 days (2 tablets daily) 5) nitrofurantoin (for 15 days!) 6) fluconazole 200 mg for 10 days 7) azithromycin for 10 days. 8) linezolid 600 mg 2x15 days! :(9) cephalosporin for 2x7 days the doctors have abused my body with antibiotics :(10) steroidal creams like clobetasone miconazole. betamethasone dipropionate, aciclovir, clotrimazole and so on! during the course of all the antibiotics, I was informing the doctors that it's still burning after medication too (which means the prescriptions were wrong) but still they forced me to finish the course. I am not at all sexually active. So there's no question of stds. I have taken all the possible antibiotics, so no question of stis. I got penile discharge on day 1, but never after that. No blood discharge. Infact my main problem was whenever I masturbated, I did not use lubrication, I did it on dry penis for so many years. It always burned after ejaculation, when there was no lube. Finally after meeting so many urologists who abused my body with antibiotics, I met a skin doctor and he gave me fluconazole and steroidal creams, but that did not help either. He said it's balanitis and urologists failed to identify it. But then now there is redness and swelling on the tip/opening and not much on the head. Also no burning after a night fall, which means there's no bacteria in semen. But extreme burning after friction/masturbation. And mild burning 24 hours. Urine is also sterile and not smelling funny. Water intake is 3-4 litres a day. Guys, its a humble request, if anyone had faced a similar issue and cleared it out, then please help me my brothers it's been 4 months of mental & physical torture. I have spent a lot of money and i'm the only person at home to earn. Please help me. I'm not in a good state. :(

Hi thanks for your query. I am dr akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi.
Actually you do not need tab linezolid after normal spine surgeries. If there was an infection, then your medications have to conrinue in supervision and as required. I need to know what is current wound status, your latest cbc, esr and crp values etc to be able to comment. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance. Thanks & regards

Cause of you knee pain looks like inflammatory in nature.
Try:
1. Regular knee quadriceps exercises (static and knee bending). 2. Ice pack application will help 3.Medications like Cartigen DN and Enzomac forte will help.
4. Take antibiotics- combination of cefuroxime and linezolid for 5 days, it will do wonders.
