A member asked:
I have either viral or bacterial conjunctivitis and i just masturbated. is there any risk of an std in this case? what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Conjunctivitis while contagious is not transmitted sexually, it is transmitted by being exposed to the secretions from the eye or touching items the infected person has touched without washing their hands.
