On the internet?: First we now live in a world where one does not just get pills to treat these infections. Given the drug resistance that has developed in chlamydia and gonorrhea a shot and pill combination is necessary. Many doctors will treat at the same time testing is done. That is how I do it in my office when one is symptomatic.

No: You need to be seen before anything is prescribed. Burning with urination in males is usually associated with a sexually transmitted disease. So, please be seen before engaging in any sexual activity.
