Sore throat after oral sex Posted: 04-23-08 11:36am
Hi there, I am a 16 year old male and i am
very worried because i gave unprotected
oral sex to my boyfreind(he did not
ejaculate) and gave/recieved protected
anal sex for the first time on saturday 19
th, it is now wednesday 23rd and i have a
sore throat, runny nose and sometimes
sneezing, is there any way this could be
any sort of sti/HIV? If not could the sore
throat be anything to do with recieveing
unportected oral sex on the 20th march?
that was with my last boyfreind who i am
no longer with. I dont want people to
think i sleep around its just the way
things have happened, this is only my
second relatinship. if anyone can help me
i would appreciate it alot! thanks for
your help.

Hi gizmos....HIV would not show up so
rapidly but there are other STDs that it
could be. Go to the clinic and get tested.
Remember that disease can be spread threw
oral sex as well as anal sex so always
practice safe sex and who ever your
partner has slept with is the same as you
sleeping with them..you can never be too
safe and too careful. I am sure it is
nothing major or life threatening...get to
the clinic and ask questions and be honest
about everything.

Some STD symptoms can resemble a
cold,yes....if it is a cold then that is
all it is. Tell you what,if the symptoms
persist like for a month then go ahead and
get tested,OK? Most countries have free
and anonymous testing clinics. Even if you
are under 18. It should go away if it is a
cold. If it is an STD, and if you think it
might be, then it will be to your benefit
to get tested for STDs,not just HIV. Most
STDs can be resolved with a simple shot or
pills, and take this as a good learning
experience and remember this the next time
you are tempted to do something unsafe.
Good Luck and let me know how you are
doing.Cheers,bloke!

I hear you. I never had any problems in
my sexual life until my former BF finally
was over here with me after being with
someone else. I had a really bad sore
throat, looked and saw my tongue was
green. Also had developed a bad vaginal
infection. Never had any of that before.
And, I am talking bad infection.
My doctor tested me. She gave me a shot
and it seemed to clear up whatever in the
world that was.
That is just my story. You are a young
person. Listen to Homer and always play
safe.

Hey there Roberta777, Sorry to hear about
your 'incident',can i just ask how long
your sore throat lasted for? I am a little
more worried as i have just woken up to
find that my left eye is more moist than
normal and that it is slightly more
bloodshot than my right eye, when i woke
up i had to wipe it away with my hand as
it was underneath my eye to!! eek!! I have
spoken to my bf and we are going to go to
the GUM clinic next friday 2nd may, and we
will both get tested, i just hope if i do
have anything that it won't get worse by
then!I know Homerx said leave it a month
but im going out of my mind here!!! Thanks
for your input everyone!! Gizmos

Hey there everyone,
Just thought i would let u know how
everything is going, but mostly homerx!
Me and my boyfreind never did go to the
clinic and we both split up around the
middle of may, i've left meeting people
since then and have just got on with my
life becasue i got fed up with it all!
Since then i have had no physical symptons
or sore throats, which is good! I've
learnt from all of this and when i do get
into relationship to take it slow, and we
will both get tested before we get into
anything which i a good idea!
Sorry for talkin a load of rubbish i just
thought i would let homerx know how it is
all goin! cheers!
