a few seconds of unprotected oral w/ stripper - extremely worried, some symptoms
by nyc_worried, Jan 03, 2006 12:00AM
while traveling and intoxicated, i allowed things to get a bit out of hand while getting a lap dance 7 days ago. a stripper performed oral on me for a few seconds before i stopped her. since then i have had a slight itch at the tip of my penis but no discharge or other symptoms... i wonder if it could be anxiety? i am newly married and feel awful about this. please advise whether you think i should get it checked out.
thank you so much!

The risk of any STD from oral sex is very low in general, and certainly is close to zero for such brief contact. Further, itching alone isn't a symptom of any STD that I know of. Finally, as I have said several times on this forum, when a person suspects his or her own symptoms are due to anxiety, s/he probably almost always is right. Unless you develop other symptoms (overt sores or lesions, discharge, painful urination, etc) within 2 weeks after exposure, I wouldn't worry about it.
