A member asked:
I am bout to get a shot, can doctors figure out if you have stds just by doing so or does it have to be a cotton swab?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes we just make the diagnosis by history and examination and go ahead with the treatment. However, testing to confirm the diagnosis is still preferred.
