Itching in Penis.

Hi,

I had a protected oral sex a month ago. I also fingered her for 2-3 min. I had no open sores on my hand. Now (exactly 4 weeks after), I feel little itch occasionally on my penis. But i have no sores or any bumps kind of symptoms so far. Is itching a sign of any STDs? Can i take a STD test now or do i need to wait for another 2 weeks?

There is no telling what is causing the itching.  You will have to go to a doctor for that.  It could be a fungal infection. No one can tell you except a doctor who tests you.

Hi,

Its been 5 weeks now. I don't have any symptoms except occasional itching on my penis for the last 1 week. Is it the warning sign that I'll get the genital herpes or syphilis sores soon or Is it something else?

fingering held no risk for stds. oral sex has a tiny risk for some stds. itching can be caused by an std but also can be caused by many other things. oral sex poses a risk for gonorrhea, NGU and possible herpes (not likely). you can test now for NGU and gonorrhea but you need to wait 3 months for herpes testing, even though i dont think it is necessary.
