no need to waste money almost every city or one nearby has a clinic that will do tests for free.  They take sometimes ten days to get answers but in the end you will know what you have and get treatment what you describe is one of three things gonnorhea, chlamydia or NGU in my estimation but all curable so go get checked. She needs to as well if you or her or both are infected need to abstain while taking meds.

This does sound typical to any STD. But I see no reason to keep guessing, when it's possible to consult a professional and/or to get tested. I hope your problem will resolve.
You can always try the doctor forum, but I would invest that money on getting some tests done. Just to be sure.
Take care.

Hola my friend.

Hot tub is irrelevant when it comes to STDs. How long a time did it take for you to have symptoms (discharge) after possible infection? And has your partner been diagnosed with an STD?

Your description is so unclear that there is no way to give a proper answer, but one thing is for sure, you either got some bacteria from your partner, or are not suffering from any STD. Either case.

Tests will naturally will tell the answer by now, at least for bacterial STDs. And based on your description, there is no urgent need to test the ones that are caused by viruses.

Take care.
