Reoccurance

I had unprotected sex, and the doctor believes that I may have contracted chlamydia or gohorria. I took medication for both, and was told to wait 10 days for the lab results. The inflammation and symptoms went down, but not all the way, and it seems to be going up again. I have been masturbating in this time, but not sexual intercourse. Any idea what's going on?

Probably from heat or something.  Its not an std.

Well, I should note that they don't look like blisters or anything, and they aren't itchy at all..

It might, or it might not.  (Yes, I know, lousy answer.)

If they are truly pimples, then no.  If its more of a heat rash or a dermatitis-like thing, maybe.

Or it could just be from the heat.

See your doctor if it concerns you.

Lately I've noticed an outbreak of small pimples over my entire body. Could this be related at all, or an alergic reaction to something?

Good.  As long as you are improving, you should be fine.

Well it's gotten better. Not as itchy, and the discharge is really clear, and the head of the penis is only a little pink (its always been that way with me, so...) I'm still waiting for the lab results. But it's getting better for sure.

Well, the meds can take up to a week, maybe longer, to fully work, so if you aren't better, and its been longer than that, follow up with your doctor.

No, it hasn't been 10 days, I'll admit. Just a little freaked out, haha. As for alcohol, I don't drink, and the medication was a one time dose. So it couldn't be either of those things.

Has it been 10 days yet?  Have you gotten the results?

Perhaps its not chlamydia that is causing this, and that's why you are having a recurrence.

I would definitely check on the results, and let your doctor know your symptoms are back.

you may have drank alcohol while taking meds or missed a dose. or worse you had contracted a relapsing or resistant strain/s. you may have to take alternative meds which your dr will prescribe you. goodluck. pray hard.

Sorry, should also note that the discharge coming out of my penis is very clear and not very prevaliant.
