A member asked:
Can i get a std or infection from semen contacting my skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
STD: There are very few pathogens that will penetrate through intact skin, but Treponema pallidum, the causative agent of syphilis, is one of them. Get checked. You will almost certainly be normal but always better safe than sorry. Best wishes.
