Hepres - first OB question

Hi Grace and all, thanks for all the good work you do.

1. With a first OB (not recurring), would you need to look for symptoms or would you definately know you were having them?

My so called symptoms started roughly 14 days after event.

I feel tingling/burning on the right side of my body including lower legs, thigh, shoulder and rarely sharp penis pain. For example it feels as though it travels from section to section at times and stops and starts. When im busy I tend not to feel anything

No rashes and no itching watsoever but two tiny sort of pimples which I had to closely look for!
One on the left thigh and one on the right thigh. It didnt help now that ive aggrevated them.

Thanks very much!!


My orignal post below,

A naked lady sat on my thigh for less than 20 seconds with her vagina (humping action). I had my underwear on. Her vagina was making contact with my thigh. What STD's risk does this pose please?

I'd follow up on your pain from a non-std related angle.

Hi Grace, I hope your well.

Thanks for all your support, I got a pimple/ulcer (what is the difference) on the side of my upper right thigh. I am not sure if this was more than a pimple..

The mistake I made was attack it and didnt show my GP in its original state, only after. It was raised and therefore I tried to squeeze it. Clear fluid came out of it no puss and was tender to touch. There was redness in a perfect circle around it maybe 1-2mm afterwards. Could this have been to pressing it?

7 days later it has dried up and cleared but can still feel a small bump underneath but it is not sore. Can I get your opinion please?

If I am concerned about tingling/burning sensations, would I be feeling them in my shoulder if my intial concern was my thigh?

It still travels from my right calf, thigh, lower back and shoulder (burning)
I do not feel symptoms in more than one place at the same time. And if busy I tend not to feel anything.

Intial encouter 9 nov, tingling start roughly 3 weeks (1 dec) after and pimple on side of thigh about an inch below underwear line 12th dec.

Please let me know what your thoughts are, I know we have spoken about anxiety before but getting an appointment for a pyscologist at this time of year is impossible.

Thanks for everything grace.

huh huh

think of it as if you spend the weekend with family with small kids and they call you wednesday to warn you that the kids were diagnosed as having head lice. What is the first thing you do?  You reach up and start itching your scalp non-stop!!!  You are letting the idea of all of this affect you. it wasn't a risk for you.

Hi Grace, Im waiting for an appointment, which is hard to do.

Would you say my symptoms are purely caused by anxiety??

we discussed your lack of a risk previously on the std forum.

since you can't let go of this, have you sought out professional help as I recommended previously?
