Itching Sking and Eyes, Swollen Lymph Nodes, Tooth/Jaw Problem -> STD or Anxiety?
I am a male, and had protected (condom use) anal sex with another men, a week ago, Saturday, March 17th, it was my first time. Anal sex was performed on me and its all we did, something I will never do again. I have HPV, I finally got rid of my genital warts about 3-4 months ago, no warts since. Since the anal sex, the next day, my skin started to itch as well in the anal and genital regions. My eyes started to itch, and I couldn't wear my contacts anymore. The itching is there then disappears. I started to have a feeling of nausea on Tuesday till Friday. On Friday, my lymph nodes, all under my neck started to feel sore. Today, Saturday, the the neck still is swollen but better. The eyes still itch on and off. I started to feel a pain in my ear today, Sat.. I do have allergies, and since its warm and the grass is started to get green, don't know its allergies or something else. The itching in the anal region hasn't gotten away, but the genital region is still there once in a while. After that first anal sex encounter, my sex drive has disappeared, haven't thought about sex for a week now. I checked my skin everywhere, no unusual bumps or rashes in the anal or genital regions.
I will get tested eventually. I been going on so many websites, and can't find how long I need to wait before I get tested for the STD's.
Can anyone tell me, if what I am going through is because of Anxiety and Stress or is did I catch another STD. During the past week I had midterms so that didn't help, but after a week, I still can't stop feeling that I caught something, and the itching and swollen lymph nodes won't go away. Maybe what it is, its allergies, hopefully, around this time last year, more in April, my allergies went really bad, my sinuses are really bad. One of my allergies I have, really weird, whenever I take a hot steaming shower, exercise heavily, I get these red rashes on my chest and back, a doctor told me I am allergic to the cold, since it only happens when by skin temperature goes way up high.
Any thoughts on this?
