Unhappy Need a Doctors opinion. STD or not?

You all been helpful so far and I know some doctors are here.

As you may know I was in a semi-sexual (not vaginal or anal, just oral and touching) relationship for a month. I was embarrassed to ask but I think I should. I plan to see a doctor anyway.


After being in bed with her the night, a very small painful rash appeared in the middle (not base or head) of my penis. I forget how soon, but it was quick. I had assumed it was only an itchy irritation an used various lotions and anti bacterial cream on it. There was some burning if I touched it. Almost no effect. If anything the itch spread, but the main wound didn't. Getting an erection either didn't happen or it was painful. A few days later I used a regiment of hydrogen peroxide followed by Lamisil (an anti fungal cream). The regiment burned It seemed to heal from red to pink and then skin. I'll note I had no other symptoms at this time.

Only weeks later I have a very slightly above normal temperature for myself and had some sinus issues, yet nothing I consider full blown flu or cold at least compared to what I'm used to. I have had no reappearance of the spot on my penis. I have had some dry skin in the area once though.

Afterward, I started read up on STD's. Of course I am worried about the dreaded HIV, but I am more concerned about the two choices of Herpes or Bacterial infection. I believe that is called Candisis or something like that. That might be commonly known as yeast infection. There was only fluid if I rubbed or tried to break it. There was no obvious bumps that would look like the Herpes pictures. No crusting or anything like that.

I am worried. From what I said does it sound like Herpes, Yeast or something else I should look up? How can I or my doctor test for STD's or Yeast and what can I expect when I ask? Any more info on these conditions or my symptoms?

I'm really hoping I am normal (paranoid) and that was a series of misfortune or I'm self cured. I only regret not doing something sooner or even going here to ask for advise.

Well my two cents for not being a doctor. It's either Herpes or they didn't brush their teeth and it left bad breath on your manhood. lol

A-Not knowing what you did together I cannot tell.
B-Blisters are not good; however, may be another indicator which is not so bad.
C-Get to a doc or clinic for testing NOW!. HIV? I would not concern yourself since the appearance of risk here is low. HOWEVER, you need to be checked, a swab & labs (blood drawn) must be done--NOW. Treatment is usually via a IM shot or pills. Yet I cannot tell you what this is since I am not seeing it myself. If I had to take a shot in the dark? Oral sex and she has a cold sore. Yeast does not generally blister. Describing your symptoms though make me think more towards Genital Herpes--much based on your contact with her which is not clear.

NO SEX WITH ANYONE UNTIL YOU SEE A DOC! AND GET THERE TODAY!

You do need to see a doctor. Contact is contact and that is all it takes to spread a disease. And yet it might just be an allergic reaction to the various lotions and creams you've been using. Think the worse and hope for the best. You need to find out what this is, as you are having multiple symptoms. Flu or cold like symptoms and even a slightly elevated temperature are not to be ignored. You need to make sure that you give the doctor all your symptoms and how long they lasted. Also take in the lotions and such that you have used so that your doctor knows.

I just went to the local clinic today. Too much time has passed for a skin sample, but they will do a blood test. I will know in five days.

Much has to do with WHAT you did with this person and the degree of contact to assess risks. Hopefully, it's a non-issue for you. I am pleased though you have been evaluated. Remember always safe sex practices & if there is a issue get checked ASAP.

Hopefully, it's nothing more than a minor bacterial infection, inflammation, perhaps exacerbated by your personal creams & the moisture in the region. The cold/flu symptoms? Well, having a sinus infection can cause the flu/cold such as low grade fevers, malaise, fatigue, etc. and there is much of that going around. For your own sake, it's not much. Let us know the outcome & if any re-occurrence in the region get to the doc for a check up.

What was done was me learning to give oral to her and some touching contact. Sharing the same bed is also a factor. Kissing too.

Touching how? Genital to genital with no barrier? Or you just performing oral on her? Why do I ask? There are methods for transmission & it's imperative for understanding.

Has she seen her doctor? Get her to go in and be tested. What if any symptoms has she had. Explain to her your's and before any further contact of any kind is made she needs to see a dr too.

Well we did share the same bed twice. I can't fully remember what touched what now but that is possible. She did not perform on me.

Well now I deleted any ways I knew of contacting her unless I run across someone who knows both of us. Even if I did, I don't trust her to be honest with me because shes not an honest person and I doubt she would even pick up the phone.
