Is there a possibility that i have an std?

Are you having sex: If you are having sex, then you can definitely come in contact with a std. Using a condom can help prevent transmission of stds.

STDS: Yes. You have an std. Your symptoms represent gonorrhea or chlamydia or both and you should be treated for both. That means that zithromax alone was not appropriate. You need a shot of Ceftriaxone as well to cover all forms of possible gc. In some studies these infections are actually co-infections up to 70% of the time.

Who knows?: I do believe this question was once addressed, but probably not suiting what someone likes to hear, although surely needed to hear. Again, who knows? As as long as engaging in sex, either vaginal, anal or oral, there is a likelihood to get it because many sexually active persons with stds are free of std-related symptoms. So, any doubt, see professionals timely please! online is often not enough.
