Gonorrhea through underwear

Hi.

I recently got infected with gonorrhea, but went to a doctor and got a shot which made the infection go away. I washed all my underwears, but today i noticed that the one underwear I was wearing all day had a dried stained on it. I am now really terrified of have been reinfected by it. Is it possible that such a thing could happen?

I'm not a doctor, but it is my understanding that if you've washed all your clothing you should not be at risk. It is possible you just had some discharge throughout the day. Don't panic. :)
