Fears after having brief unprotected oral


I'm a guy who hooked up with a female commercial sex worker. My thing was kind of soft so she gave me a blow job to harden it. It was like 20-30 seconds and it was unprotected. After that, I put on a condom and we had sex for like 5 minutes.

I'm afraid that I might have contracted syphilis during the blow job. What symptoms do I need to look out for? It's been 6 days

True, from Dr Hunters post, the symptoms will show.  

The "tingling at the tip" of urethra can be a normal feeling of everyday's irritations the penis encounters.   NGU is the only thing I would worry about, but again its a low risk encounter.  Usally people who get NGU are those recieveing oral on a constant basis.  Its been half a month., and you've got a low risk exposure.  If in the next 15 days nothing changes, it looks like your home free.

Thanks Vance, James

It's been 3 weeks and I feel better. Once in a while I check my penis for sores or chancres but there's been none so far. I can wait for a week more to say that I'm home free. So far so good though.

I just noticed a few marks. This is normally caused by tight jeans or iritation. If I were to have ulcers or chancres, they should have shown by now shouldn't they?

I know testing is unnecessary in my case but I tested since its free anyways. They smeared my urethra. It was so painful. They have to dig in deep because there's no visible fluid or discharge. The medical technician even asked why I was bothering to test since there's no discharge.

Yes yes yes...negative of any STI.

I'm so happy

Gary,


I just read your post. Paranoid? You may have gotten me there bro, I really am. Probably because of the guilt. I tested at the Social Hygiene Clinic last February. All good. Now here I am, bearing the guilt again.

But I do take your word man. I'm regaining confidence bit by bit. Thanks a lot!

Thanks Jess!

I really appreciate it.

I do have a hunch that I am home free.

Condoms for oral sex all the way bro. Actually, I am gearing toward abstaining.

All the best

I'm from the Philippines too, and I can tell you we have very low STD rates (virtually none in massage parlors, as they are required monthly STD checkups, even the trashiest places, if they don't want to get raided). I've had head from a nearly 3-digit number of CSWs and have had no problems from that.

If it's a bar/KTV girl though, that's a different story, since they don't get tested regularly.

Gonorrhea drip does NOT stop, hence why it is called "drip" (tulo). It'd be VERY HARD to miss. It's probably the only STD you have to actively worry about in this country (and only if you go unprotected vaginal).

If you REALLY want to get tested, you can find a list of STD testing clinics here:

The Social Hygiene Clinic in Manila even performs some tests (like HIV) for free.

But from your posts, I'd say you are just extremely paranoid.
