You heard wrong. It's called open wounds. You didn't have an open wound.

I had always heard having cuts or sore on your penis put you at risk.  If the condom did not cover them than why is this not a risk?

You didn't have a risk. See a doctor for your sinuses.

No antibiotics will not delay ARS. What was your risk?

Would taking anitbiotics for a tooth infection delay ars.  Also the sore throat was only 4 days.  Is that to short?
