Performing oral sex on prostitute, then gargling with lemon juice

[todave]

Last night I performed oral sex on a prostitute... It was unprotected. After she left I gargled with lemon juice, thinking it would kill any possible bacteria in my mouth. What are the possible STDs I could get? I read it's relatively rare for the man to get anything, but I'm scared. And, what symptoms should I look for? Was rinsing with lemon juice a good idea?

Yes I noticed this morning it's gone....You don't know how relieved I am. I'll let you know if anything weird happens. Time for me to make some changes. Thank you so much for your feedback.

Its not herpes.  Herpes doesn't cause blood blisters.

You probably just bit the inside of your cheek.

Ok I just noticed a blood blister in my inside cheek. This just formed after eating some sushi. Now I'm scared. Could this be herpes? I've had cold sores before, so I already have type 1, but never manifested as a blood blister inside my cheek. Help! Could it be I bit my cheek? Would a blister show up so quickly if it was herpes???

It might.  There aren't a lot of studies on this.

Thanks, I feel a little better. Also, she took a shower before, does that help?

There is no risk for HIV here.  There is also a very very slim chance of Hep B.  Chlamydia very rarely happens from oral sex, if ever.  

Please don't panic.

The sores could take a month or so to show up, and the sore throat, if you get one (most oral stds are asymptomatic) would appear in a few days to a week or so.

But again, this is low risk, and your chances of getting anything are very slim.

Hi dave,
Go check, I went to test in early june for hIV and hepatitis and had chlamydia, I was assymptotic.

Test in 2 weeks for all STD's

Take care,

How long could it take for oral sores or sore throat? I.e. when am I in the clear?

[auntiejessi]

Rinsing with the lemon juice probably wouldn't hurt, but I don't know how much it would help.  

In any case, you are right - your chances of an std are slim.  The possibilities are gonorrhea and syphilis, and both aren't all that common.

If you notice any oral sores, sore throats, etc., then get checked, but I wouldn't worry too much about this.
