symptoms after oral sex

by worrier288, Jul 12, 2009 06:36AM

I for the 1st time performed oral sex on a man about 15 hours ago, I only had his penis in my mouth for less than a minute and he never ejaculated and I don't believe there was any precome present. Last night my throat had a little thick mucus and during the night I developed a slight sore throat along with some congestion and one ear seems a little pluged (plugged) up, is there any STD that would have symptoms so soon?

No STD would produce those symptoms so soon. In general, oral sex is "safer sex." HIV is not a risk at all. Herpes and syphilis are very low risks - especially if you did not see any sores on his penis. Throat gonorrhea is also a very low risk. In other words, you have little to worry about with the situation you described. Even if the guy had an STD (and the odds are he did not), oral sex is not an effective way of transmitting STDs. If sounds like you are coming down with a cold or sinus infection. If you are still worried about STDs or any new symptoms pop up, you can see your doctor for an evaluation.

All the best...
