A member asked:
How long does it take for the oral gonorrhea symptoms (sore throat) to go away, after the treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Over 90% of oral gonorrhea causes no symptoms at all. When sore throat occurs, generally it is gone within 48 hours of treatment. If throat pain lasts longer, that does not indicate that treatment didn't work; more often it means that gonorrhea was the cause of the symptoms.
