How long does medication for bacteria infection take to be effective?
Patient: How come my prescription for my bacteria infection isn t working? It s been six days since I ve taken it and I feel it hasn t improved. However I had went to a walk in clinic instead of my actual doctor. It still burns and itches down in my female parts. Doctor: Hi Thank you for asking HCMI have gone through your query.The antibiotics took might not be effective.In such case a culture should be done And antibiotic should be changed according to culture and sensitivity.Can you elaborate your symptoms? Burning and itching can also be due to genital herpes infection.You had any history of unprotected Sex?In case of genital herpes antivirals like acyclovir will help.Hope this may help you.Let me know if any thing not clear.Thanks.
