Cultural sensitivity report

Question

Asked for Female, 21 Years

I had klebsiella throat infection 2 months back,so took a treatment these 2 months. Now my doctor asked me to take cultural throat swab to see the results. It showed no growth in sensitivity report but it showed moderate pus cell,gram positive cocci and gram negative basilli in the report. What does that mean? Can you tell me what measure I should take in terms of medicine and food that I eat?

I suggest ideally you consult your doctor who prescribed the treatment to begin with. Discuss the possibility with him. Do you still have any symptoms? Like pain, or fever, or sore throat, or irritation? Are you diabetic?

Next Steps

perhaps you can do a CBC and CRP blood test to confirm if you still have an infection

Health Tips

continue doing lukewarm water with salt gargles
