Irritation continues after Chlamyida treatment

[douper]

For about a month, I stopped having sex because my asshole felt irritated. I then got tested, and the results were positive for Chlamydia in the anus (and in my dick). I took my two Azithromycin pills this Monday. However, by Friday I still feel just as irritated down there. Should I wait longer for it to heal? Could this be a different problem? I'd expect by now for things to at least feel a little better.

I’d head to your local sex den and have some fun with your new toy.

U may have LGV a nastier version of clamydia.  U should ask to be tested for it.

Douper,

Sounds like you have LGV, clamydia's wicked stepsister. I had it. My younger gay doc prescribed antibiotics twice per day for 21 days plus a cream to soothe my butt. My butt also had a very small tear. Also, no sex for 21 days. I had to get re-tested to make sure the antibiotics and cream did their job. Prvt me if you want more info. Good luck!

I agree it could possibly be LGV. You should ask for a test of cure and doxycycline 100 mg orally twice a day x21 days. They should also do a rectal exam to rule out other causes.

Definitely go back to your doctor and get more meds. Anal Chlamydia is more difficult to treat.

I’m on doxy for 21 days for probable LGV. It’s no fun but waiting it out is worse, trust me.

I went 14 months with an undiagnosed LGV infection and saw 16 doctors until it was finally diagnosed. You don’t want to go through living hell like I had to endure. Get on doxycycline for 21 days. ASAP
