Possible STD Symptoms?
Ok. I had unprotected sex with a girl almost exactly a year ago. I've never been tested, and I've been getting a little worried lately. I also was kissing a girl in February and ended up getting Strep Throat from her, and have had a soar throat since then. I was recently tested for Strep Throat and Mono and have neither. But I've had this constant throat pain since February. It doesn't always hurt, usually it only does when I drink cold liquids and such. It's like a sharp scratching feeling on the left side. I have also been feeling very tired lately, to the point where my eyeballs actually hurt. I'll admit, some nights I only get about 3 to 4 hours of sleep, but even on days where I get plenty of rest, I still feel very tired. And for about two months now, after shaving I have noticed two little bumps in my pubic area, right near the penis. They're white and when I pop them they bleed, and keep bleeding for a little while, unlike a pimple would. I'm wondering if they are warts? After popping them and healing they just come right back.
If you get oral gonorrhea you might get a sore throat. Most of the time it is asymptomatic.
Im not qualified at all, but I went through a really bad experience for about a year...posting in this forum, reading articles on the internet, looking at pictures...The only thing that put an end to my unrest was when I booked an appointment at the health clinic.
Its not a nice experience, Im not going to lie. I was scared ******** and felt really sick....I went and had the tests done, it wasnt too bad and was pretty quick, they then told me to come back the following week for the results. Worst time of my life, when I went to get my results the lady asked if I minded if another worker was present, I was really scared and nearly crying....but she quickly went on to say I should worry all the tests had come back clean, HIV, STDS, HEPPATITIS, ETC... I started to cry and even the lady was surprised, she was very kind and said that I must of had it all bottled up inside.
My advice is if you want to stop worrying....go and get tested, its the only thing thats going to put your mind to rest. I hope everything works out for you. This forum really helped me, everyone was kind and most of all, all of them gave me the same advice. Get tested. Cheers.
