Are Red Spots on My Mouth Related to STI/STD ?

Hello

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

1. Possibilities:

Enteroviral Infection: Red spots resembling ulcers on the roof of the mouth could indicate an enteroviral infection, which is not sexually transmitted.

2. Recommendations:

Medical Evaluation: Seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment of the mouth red spots.

STD Screening: If there are risk factors for unsafe sex, consider screening for sexually transmitted infections such as HIV and syphilis.

Prevention: Practice safe sex to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections. Use condoms consistently and correctly, and consider regular STD testing if sexually active.

Thanks
