HIV from Gonorrhea? +swollen lypmh nodes
Hello I am an 18 year old college student and I am a male. I contracted gonorrhea from another male about 8 weeks ago and immediately got treated...when I had the gonorrhea I had penile discharge but it is now gone and my doctor said that the gonorrhea was gone...so about a week after I was cured from the gonorrhea I noticed I had a swollen lymph node on the side of my neck...throughout the past 5-6 weeks they swollen lymph nodes would come amd go and thwy just returned today. When I had sex with the guy that gave me gonorrhea I only got his pre-cum/semen in my mouth. Im very worried about my lymph nodes because I heard that swollen lymph nodes could be a sign of HIV...someone please help I'm terrified!
But what about oral sex...we had that kind of but only for about 30 seconds and then we stopped..do you think there's a chance that his pre could have given me hiv aswell?
No I didnt...i managed to get infected in my anus only because his penis touched that area, but he didn't penetrate me.
