Brief penis lick STD risk

Good morning dear doctors, I have a question to which I can't find an answer.
18 days ago I received a masturbation from a professional woman. unfortunately the woman in question tried to lick my penis, I immediately pulled away but felt the sensation of her tongue on my glans for a fraction of a second.
On the web we read that one such contact is enough to be infected with an STI while on the forum it is reported in numerous posts that this should be excluded given the very brief contact.
Unfortunately, during last 2 days I have noticed internal discomfort in the genitals, between the testicles and the prostate. Could it be that I got some STI? I haven't booked any tests as many posts on the forum advise not to do after contacts like mine

As has been expressed several times, this is not an STD concern because there was never a risk for such. We're sorry you are so anxious and hope you are able to work with your own physician to understand.

Since you've read other posts, you already know what I'm going to say. :)

There is no risk here. I don't know what is causing your discomfort - perhaps anxiety, a heightened awareness of the area because of fear/anxiety, something unrelated - but it's not an STI.

If you feel the need to test for your peace of mind, you can do that now, but it's going to be for peace of mind only - there is absolutely no other reason to test, and no "what if" scenario will change this.

Thank you Auntiejessi for you fast reply.
I just read your answers from other posts!
Don't misunderstand, I absolutely believe what you tell me otherwise I wouldn't be here writing.

since I am in a country where I have no healthcare and everything is very expensive, I ask you please if you can tell me what else could be since it is not an STI. The only exposure was the one reported, nothing else. What other pathologies can be transmitted during my intercourse? at least I'll be precise and immediately contact the correct specialist or the correct analyses without wasting money. I also thought about candida but I don't think it could result in these pains. I have no discharge right now.
Thank you so much
Whatever this is, it's NOT related to this encounter.

Maybe you're dehydrated. Maybe you need to increase water and decrease caffeine and alcohol.

Maybe it's anxiety, like I've already said.

If it's an unrelated infection, maybe it's a prostate infection from something else entirely. Those can happen without having sex.

For the next few days, increase your water intake, decrease caffeine and alcohol. Keep busy. Don't focus on this - see if keeping your brain otherwise occupied helps.

If you aren't better by Monday, and you can get into a specialist, then see a urologist.

Thank you, your advice is very valuable and I will follow it as you indicated. If should there be any developments, I will report here
You're welcome. If anything further develops, we have a Urology forum where you can post. It is not an STI concern, and this is the STI forum.

I'm sorry, I have another question. Does an STI such as gonorrhea or chlamydia always cause discharge? Thank you
I'll jump in and answer your questions. Always is a word not really used in medical conditions. Nothing is 'always' as each case is a little different. And to answer the question in general, gonorrhea and chlamydia can both be present without discharge. But you are being told here CLEARLY that this is not an std/sti concern so I'd find a way to calm your anxiety without asking for reassurance or researching because that only builds the anxiety more.
but how can you all be so certain that an STI can be ruled out? I can not understand on which basis. Thanks
