Confused about oral chlamydia and gonorrhea

How do you get Oral chlamydia? and how about oral gonorrhea? Does EVERYONE have symptoms or can you be asymptomatic? i have heard that if you get oral gonorrhea, it goes away on its own . Does oral chlamydia go away by itself too?

If you take liquid zithromax for chlamydia, would it cure an oral chalmydial infection as well ?

and lastly, if you do have oral chlamydia or oral gonorrhea, how are they spread? can you spread either of those through kissing? What about making out? What about sharing utensils ?

does chlamydia orally ever go away by itself?  and I also wanted to know is chlamydia or gonorrhea only passed from penis to mouth , or can it be passed from mouth to penis too? what i mean is if you have it orally and give someone head, can they get it genitally from your oral infection?

yes, treating a genital chlamydia or gonorrhea infection would also treat an oral infection with it if you happened to have one.  

oral to oral contact is a poor way to transmit oral std's, except for oral herpes of course. sharing utensils isn't an issue .
