Testicle pain?
I’m not sure of your age, but this requires immediate evaluation. A primary concern would be testicular torsion. This is a condition where the testicle rotates and twists the cord that supplies the blood flow to the area. READ MORE
Strep throat?
I’m assuming that you had throat swab (Rapid Strep Test or Throat Culture) that confirmed Group A Streptococcus. If one of these tests were positive and you’re on the correct antibiotic, you are not contagious after 24-36 hours of taking the antibiotics. If you’re not improving with the antibiotics prescribed, it’s advised that seek reevaluation. READ MORE
