For a foreskin injury, the skin is very delicate. While Betadine (povidone-iodine) and Himalaya Antiseptic Cream can help prevent infection, mixing them might irritate this sensitive area. It is safer to gently clean with warm water and apply a plain ointment like petroleum jelly. The physical injury itself should heal well without long-term issues. However, because the contact was unprotected, there is a risk of sexually transmitted infections. I gently recommend visiting a healthcare provider for a routine STI screening and to ensure the area heals properly.

Since you are already taking azithromycin and gargling with Betadine, you can add an over-the-counter pain reliever like paracetamol or ibuprofen to help reduce the inflammation and ease swallowing. Warm liquids, honey, and anesthetic throat lozenges can also provide soothing relief. Please ensure you stay well-hydrated. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist to confirm these medications are safe for you. If you experience any difficulty breathing or if your symptoms worsen, please seek immediate medical attention.

A permanent cure usually involves removing the tonsils (tonsillectomy) or smoothing them using laser treatments, which you can discuss with your specialist. Regarding gargles, the Dispirin (soluble aspirin) your doctor recommended is excellent for easing discomfort and inflammation. Betadine (povidone-iodine) gargle is an antiseptic that can help reduce bacteria and odor, but it won't dissolve the stones. It is best to stick with your ear, nose, and throat doctor's recommended plan, as they know your condition best. Gentle saltwater rinses can also safely help.

Accidentally swallowing a small amount of Betadine (povidone-iodine) gargle is generally harmless, especially since you had dinner 15 minutes prior, as the food in your stomach helps dilute it. You might experience mild nausea or a slight stomach upset, but this should pass quickly. Drinking a glass of water or milk can help soothe your stomach. If you develop severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or difficulty breathing, please seek medical attention, but these reactions are highly unlikely from a small accidental swallow. Rest easy and stay hydrated.

I understand how frustrating it is to deal with a weak voice for over three weeks. Since your voice change has lasted 25 days, it is best to consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist. They can gently examine your vocal cords to find the exact cause, as gargling with povidone-iodine (Betadine) doesn't reach the vocal cords directly. In the meantime, please rest your voice as much as possible, avoid whispering (which actually strains your vocal cords more), and stay well-hydrated with warm water. This is very common and highly treatable, so try not to worry. We will work on getting your voice back to normal soon!

Since your fever, sore throat, and body aches are persisting despite paracetamol, it is important to be evaluated by a healthcare provider. These symptoms could indicate a viral illness or a bacterial throat infection that might require targeted treatment. In the meantime, please get plenty of rest and stay well-hydrated. You can continue paracetamol at safe intervals, or discuss adding ibuprofen with a doctor to help with the body aches and inflammation. Please seek a physical evaluation soon so we can help you feel much better.
