Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

After I pee or sit a certain way, I feel slight irritation on my penile head. No burning, no discharge. Had protected sex but received unprotected oral a month ago. I have anxiety and overthink—could this be an STI or just irritation?

 

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

An STI is unlikely, but irritation from friction or sensitivity is possible. Since you had unprotected oral sex, there’s a small risk of infection. A check-up is recommended for peace of mind. Always practice safe sex to minimize risks.

 

Thanks
