Exposure Risk - anxious guy
Hi there,
I recently had an experience which has me very concerned.
I had protected sex with a female sex worker (no idea of her background). She gave me protected oral, then added lube, and we had protected vaginal sex (brief, about a 2 minutes max). Then I pulled the condom off and masturbated into a towel.
I had a full panel test 3 1/2 days after the incident, for everything. All negative. Specifically UR test for chlamydia and Gonorrhea were negative.
My question is:
1) I now have soreness at the tip of my penis, and on/off pain slightly inside the tube. Could that be Chlamydia or Gonorrhea, or was my test 3 1/2 days after conclusive?
2) I have no other symptoms. No discharge, no sores or rash etc. But very very nervous and anxious. I have had diareah for about a week since the incident and am still nervous. Is this a sympom or nerves?
3) What STD's should I be concerned about?
4) When is the earliest to get tested for anything?
I'm terrified of the worst so any advice would be very appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, this is typical anxiety post i read daily. Since the condom covered your penis nothing could enter so there is zero risk for gono and all other internal urethra stds.
If no part of your genital area made rubbing contact with hers its also zero risk. If your pubic mound area did make contact with hers during the protected vaginal and she did not have any vaginal sores at the time its close to zero. and these risks would be for herpes and syphilis but testing would not be recommended with no sores develping about a week or 2 after exposure but do test if you have a long term partner.

Herpes spreads by oral, vaginal and anal sex.
Herpes sores blister, then burst, scab and heal.
STIs are the most common cause of genital sores.
Millions of people are diagnosed with STDs in the U.S. each year.
STDs can't be transmitted by casual contact, like hugging or touching.
