What is Chancroid
It is one of the most underdiagnosed STD in USA because it is hard to diagnose and needs experience Physician to make it. It is curable if get diagnosed. The causative organism, Haemophilus ducreyi, was found by Ducrey in 1889. After an incubation period of 1 day to 2 weeks, chancroid begins with a small bump that becomes an sore. It get transmitted with oral, anal and vaginal sex.
Risk
Uncircumcised men are at higher risk than circumcised men for contracting chancroid. Patient with chancroid is at higher risk to contract HIV virus.
Course of Chancroid
It takes 1 day to 2 weeks for chancroid begins with a small bump that becomes an ulcer within a day of its appearance. The ulcer :
- Ranges in size (from 1/8 inch to 2 inches )
- Has sharply defined borders and painful
- Has irregular or ragged borders
- It could bleed with manupulation
- Has a base that is covered with yellowish-grey discharge or material
50% of infected men have only a single ulcer. Women frequently have 4 or more ulcers.
Common locations in men (most common to least common) are:
- Foreskin > coronal sulcus>Shaft>glans of penis> urethral opening>scrotum
In female the most common site is labia majora.
Diagnosis is made by evaluating the patient and considering eliminating syphilis and herpes as part of differential diagnosis. There are no lab tests for chancroid like there is for syphilis
Prevention
Chancroid is a bacterial infection that is spread by sex with other infected individuals. Although not having sex is the only sure prevention, safe sex practices are helpful in preventing the spread of chancroid.
Monogamous sexual relations with a known disease-free partner is the best metod. Practice "safe sex"
Treatment
Upon diagnosis right antibiotic will be perscribe for you, complicated chancroid with swellen lymph node may need surgery.
Confidential Exam, Test, Accurate Result & Treatment Available Today
If
you are concerned about sexually transmitted
diseases, or if you have had
sexual relations with an infected
or high-risk individual, then you should
see
a medical doctor and be tested. The tests need to be
ordered and interpreted
by an
experienced physician only.
Since the test is only a part of the
diagnosis,
the
actual examination is the
most important factor
for STD evaluation, which is why
seeing
an experienced
doctor is
so important for you. Just a
positive or negative test
result
by a
web site lab - does not necessarily mean
that you do or do not have STD. We
have
seen many
patients in our Clinic with negative Gonorrhea and
Chlamydia test
results
by an outside
lab, who still
have symptoms of urethral discomfort
or tingling.
There
are other
bacteria transmitted through sex,
so just checking Chlamydia &
Gonorrhea does
not prove that that there is no other bacterial
infection if you have symptom.
STD
testing is not that straight-forward.
For example, there are different types
of Chlamydia
(LGV,
Trachomatis, L, D-K ) and
many different tests (blood, antibody,
swab, urine,
DNA,
DFA) from different sources (urethra, vaginal, urine, eye, anus, throat) that an
experienced doctor could
choose depending on your history,
examination and your concern.
Practice
safe sex and always discuss sexual
health mater with
your partner.

Oral
Sex ...
NGU
Test
Yes,
You may also contract STD by oral
sex. One
of the most common
STD
that you may contract with
oral sex is NGU Read latest
article
(Jan.
6, 2006 -- Oral sex raises the
risk of a common sexually
transmitted
disease (STD) called nongonococcal
urethritis (NGU) in
men,
Australian
researchers report.) http://www.webmd.com/content/article/117/112461.htm
Many bacteria and virus could get
transmitted by oral fluid exchange
or
direct mucosa contact (deep French
kiss) such as Gonorrhea,
Chlamydia,
Herpes, syphilis ...,so
always use protection for oral sex
as well.
We
are glad to announce that our lab
is now capable to test for NGU evaluation....
NGU
NEWS
Mycoplasma
genitalium (Mg) was first isolated
from 2 of 13 men with
nongonococcal
Urethritis (NGU) in 1982. Though subsequent
attempts
to
culture the organism from men with
NGU in the 1980's failed because
of
its fastidious growth requirements.
Now in recent studies it make it presence
clearly
even stronger than gonorrhea.
Study:
Relatively new STD eclipses gonorrhea
Infection
prevalence was 11 times higher
in
cohabiting couples, study finds ( see
our NGU
page
for details)
How
to inform your partner and then get
your partner treated?
We
will help you in this matter and explain
the course of treatment.
We
will facilitate this most challenging
aspect of STD. In certain STD's,
both
partners must get treated. We are
here to help you in these most
difficult
situations, especially where there
is a third party involved.
Please
see("is
my partner at risk?" page )
Safe
Sex
Although
condom use is a must, you may still
get STD even when using
a
protective condom. Bacteria and specially
viruses are so small, they could
easily
slip through the condom ring around
the penile shaft or when the
condom
is removed or infect area which does
not have coverage, however,
use
protection for vaginal, oral or
anal sex is highly
recommended. Protection
against
different STD varies with condom.
For example it may decrease the
chance
of
NGU transmission but not much of help
for molluscum or genital wart
on
base of
penile and pubic area.
The
only way to prevent STDs is by not
having sex at all. If you do have
sex, you can
lower
your risk by only having sex with
(1) someone who doesn't have an STD
and
(2)
isn't having sex with anyone else.
Be careful of using your partner and
always
use
protection. PUBLIC

Testimonials
(The
following patients were seen recently
in our clinic, and are just some examples
of numerous
other
similar praises.)
" I flew 3000 miles to see Dr.Arani,
he was only doctor that identified
my condition, more
importantly he was very sincere during
this ordeal".
J.R Florida
My visit to your office in March 2009 was everything I expected and more. Yourself and your staff were very professional, friendly, and answered all my questions and concerns completely which made my travel from New York
to California 100% perfect. Matt, S New York
After being declared HIV positive by one of the world’s most renowned medical institutions, I came to your lab for a second opinion. Within 30 minutes, you were able to administer and return the results of an FDA approved test that showed that the original lab had made a mistake. After a week, the original lab called to tell me that I was in fact HIV negative and that they had made a mistake. The piece of mind your facility provided was crucial in helping me get through one of the most difficult weeks of my life.
Nic, Los Angeles CA 11/18/2008
".... I had over 50 warts :-/ ..After a few treatments, I've finally gained my self confidence back. It's a pretty embarrassing thing to have, but I'll have to say that Dr. Arani made me feel very comfortable in office from day 1. The removal of the warts healed quickly and after a few months could not even tell that I had even had them. Just ask to see his before and after photos. I would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends (although this ailment is not something I'm vocal about) so instead I'm happy to let others know on here that he is a great doctor, will make you feel very comfortable and help get things back to normal for you. My advice would be to see him at the first sign of anything such as these warts. I would have saved a lot of $$ & time had I gone in after the 1st wart showed."
"Thank you for giving me all
of the test and explanations ....I
looked on the internet for other
centers. There are labs, but none
had a doctor." T. Braz California
"Today
I went for my final test for my Hiv
and STD test. It was negative. It
had been over
a
year since
the
last risk encounter. It had been a
worst year in my whole life. Fortunately,
I
found Dr. Arani and
he helped me through
this horrible year. So as all the
nurses in this clinic
had
been a great support for
me. He is not only my doctor, but
my friend and my psychiatrist.
I
would like to have all my thank to
Dr.
Arani and nurses. 100% recommend to
everyone
who need
an
excellent Infectious Disease Specialist
who
is more than just doctor, but friend"
