I have been suffering from Conjunctivitis for 4 months. The doctor said you have been suffering from chronic gonorrhoea. I am going to take 1.5g azithromycin for 3 days by oral. I have tested positive for gonorhhea.No sexual contacts for 4 months.Eye examinator said that could be caused by gonorrhoea. My question is how can I wash my eye with salt water?

I'm sorry but the rules of this website do not allow us to direct you to use prescription medicine in your eyes. That will need to come from your physicians.

If you mean sterile ocular normal saline not likely to be a problem but ask the MD that is treating you.
