Herpes?
I kissed and received oral sex from a girl 2 days ago and since then I've felt like my lips have been more chapped then normal. Does this mean I have herpes now? Should I be worried sores are going to start to form soon? I've also been experiencing a tingling sensation in my genitals, and I am worried about that as well. Advice would be great, as I am extremely stressed and can't focus on school right now.
thank you howard
Same reply as last time. These symptoms aren't at all suggestive of herpes. And yes, your symptoms are entirely consistent with anxiety as the only explanation. But of course you are free to seek medical care if you need additional reassurance from a health professional.
