Question 1

I've been dealing with pharyngitis and had a throat culture done, which showed klebsiella pneumoniae present. I took antibiotics, and while some symptoms have improved, others linger. How can I know for sure if the bacteria is completely gone, and could the pharyngitis be caused by something else? If I get a repeat culture test and it comes back negative, does that definitely mean the bacteria is gone, or is there a chance it's still there but just not growing right now? Could you clarify this for me?

Accepted Answer

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

Question 2

I've been dealing with a mucus problem for the past 15 days. It only happens in the morning, and it's quite a heavy flow. The mucus is white. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

I've been having trouble breathing, and my CT scan showed DNS towards the left with a spur in the right and enlarged nasopharyngeal tonsil. I've attached the scan could you check if the DNS is severe enough for surgery or if it might improve with meds? I've been using fluticasone spray for a month with slight improvement, but the issue persists. Should I wait longer or consider adenoidectomy if the adenoids are maximally enlarged?

Accepted Answer
