Oral HPV? or oral Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea?

Posted , 12 users are following.

Hello, I am 17 and have been having these red bumps/warts at the back of my throat after my first oral sexual encounter. It's been 2 years and they don't seem to go away and they're painless. I also have a white line on my tonsils. I can't get tested due to the conservative country I am in. I'm also a minor, otherwise testing wouldn't be a problem. I have attached a picture of my condition.image

      also the white streaks indicate some kind of an infection going on there the only way ud know what infection it is is to have the doctor take some swabs

      throat swabs if u just have oral symptoms and urine if u have had sex with a person

      there are many things that can cause it but given the fact u say it happened after oral sex then ideally u need swabbing for stds of the throat if they are clear results then a doctor will help u to find out what other bacteria is csusing it

      some people with std dont even know they have them as they dont cause any symptoms stds need treating with antibiotics they dont go away on there own plus there is no 100% its std related until u hav had a doctor look at or swab for them like i said above many things can cause it not just stds

      make sure u visit a doctor have them av a look at it it might not be std related it could just be a coincidence that it occured around the same time as oral sex an d might be down to something else

      ok let's say it's a coincidence, how can another infection stay for 2 years unnoticed, do u have any idea what infections can be asymptomatic for this long ? plus i hope it's a coincidence cuz i live in a pretty religious community

      theres nothing saying its an infection until u have swabs taken to be sure benign things like post nasal drip can cause it allergys can cause it so can certain bacteria usually white streaks or pus on the tonisils is indicative of an infection which is why u need to go and have a doctor look at it i dont understand why u have waited 2 years before seeking advice
