None of those are STD symptoms. You might want to get tested for covid, though.

Receiving unprotected oral puts you at risk for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, NGU and genital herpes type 1. The risk is low enough that most experts don't feel it warrants testing.

It's a month later now. If you don't have any discharge, burning when you urinate, sores, etc., then I wouldn't worry about it at all.

Brief rubbing isn't much of a risk either.

If you can't let things go, then just go get tested and put your mind at ease. Also, seek some help for your anxiety.

Hi just yesteday it started to feel burning sensation or irritates when i urinate.
But im not sure whether it is because i checked the opening of penis myself , i opened the opening to check for any lesion.  Maybe i was too rough and it caused the irritation
The peehole* i checked my opening the peehole.
Oh yeah, doing that to yourself is definitely irritating. It's almost never a good idea. If you has discharge, you'll see it.

You can just go get tested and end this anxiety, right? Just do that. And talk to your doctor about anxiety.

Hi i have tested negative for Covid.
One of the notable symptom now is skin peeling off on my palms.  It looks dry and scaly .i will do test for other std except hiv on week 6, but then now is there any std that may cause peeling of skin on palm?
No, no STD does that. Lots of things can, though -

Remember that this was a really low risk event, and your chances of getting anything are slim. You aren't at risk for HIV, which you've been told.

Why won't you just test? You're at week 4. The only reason you'd need to wait until week 6 is for syphilis, and syphilis is uncommon in developed countries. None of your symptoms are STD symptoms. You can find out now.
Sure,  thank you.  Yeah. I just noticed that im having whitish on my penis glans. It is not itchy,  but it is whitish like patches. Not painful too
Again, not an STD symptom, but you could find out by just testing.

Nothing is going to change in my answer - it's always going to be to test. I don't know why you don't test, but not testing doesn't mean you don't have an STD, or make you have one. Either you do or don't. Sitting and being anxious about it changes nothing.

The information that our members can provide has been thoroughly exhausted, and there's no additional advice that can be provided until testing is completed.
