Clear test but symntoms?

Clear test but symntoms?

After a few incidences of unprotected sex  i decided to get checked out for everything just in case (blood urine and swab test). i had unprotected sex 2 weeks previously before the test was carried out which prompted this. While waiting 2 weeks for the results( after about 3 weeks after last unprotected sex) i began to get discharge from my penis and burning when i urinate. yet when the results came today they all read negative.
i have had no sexual contact since 2 weeks before my test.
am i so worried that i have imagined these very sore symntoms?

i realise that being tested only 2 weeks after sex can only certainly rule clymidia and gonoria but these are the two i am most worried about.

if i have had the all clear why do i still have these symntoms (ive had them for 4 days.)

thanks

It is likely you have nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) that you acquired during the sexual exposure you describe.  Your urine tests undoubtedly were for gonorrhea and chlamydia, and you can be confident you don't have either of those infections.  However, only about 1/3 of NGU cases are caused by chlamydia, so you are in the majority of NGU cases not due to chlamydia.  But the treatment is the same, typcally azithromycin (my first choice) or doxycycline.  Return to your provider, preferably at a time when you haven't urinated for at least 3-4 hr (better chance s/he will be able to observe the discharge); or if not confident your provider is up to speed on STDs, visit your local health department STD clinic.

Good luck-- HHH, MD
