Sorry - I've been offline for the better part of a week.
I don't look at pictures, because I can't diagnose. I'm not a doctor. Even a doctor can't diagnose from pictures on the internet, and shouldn't.
What you are experiencing probably isn't related, and you should follow up with your doctor promptly to find out what it is.

Yes, but you would probably need a longer course. I don't know what that would be - you'd need to check with your doctor.

Hi there -
Yes, you could probably use the mefenamic acid, but I am not very familiar with it, so you might want to check with your doctor.
Yes, masturbation is fine.
You can take cefixime, and you only need to take 400 mg once.
Reddish would indicate blood, and I'd wonder if you have something else going on than gonorrhea, like maybe a urinary tract infection.
Since you've taken the meds, you can't really test now and expect accurate results, but they might be able to test the discharge and get some results. That might be a good idea.
And you can never be totally sure that someone is std free (better term than "clean", as it implies someone who has an std is "dirty"). Condoms really do work.

i didn't get any test because i assumed that it is already gonorrhea coz i had the symptoms after sexual contact.. besides the IM worked just like before but its the pain in urinating im concerned of..
well i was confident that my partner was clean... sigh... ill just finish my kelfex dosage for a week .. well i wasnt sure if it is gonorrhea but after the IM the discharges were gone just like before. my problem is the dysuria... i want it to be gone hehehehe

It can take a few days for the symptoms to really clear up - up to a week or so.
And are you sure this is gonorrhea? Were you tested? Keflex is not needed here - just the doxy, unless they found something else.
I hope you start using condoms. :)

What are you drinking?
Are you taking the doxy at 100 mg twice a day for 7 days? That will cure chlamydia if you have that, but you need to take it at that dose.

It could be that the treatment is still working, and I know about the instant cure thing - I get that way too.
Its only been about 3-4 days since you've been treated, so if you aren't totally better in a few more days, call your doc.
Are you taking the doxy like you should?
