A member asked:

Can you get a std from giving oral sex and did not have a cut in the mouth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Absolutely!: Hi Charles, Your question is a great one. Yes indeed you can contract an STD from having oral sex. In my practice I have treated oral Gonorrhea, Chlamydia , Syphilis and Herpes. This is why we recommend oral sex with condoms or a dental damn. There should always be a barrier between you and a potential STD! Thanks

Almost every time I give oral sex to my boyfriend I get white spots on my tonsils and my tonsils become swollen. They go away after a few days of salt water. Is this common with HPV? Could this be HPV? I dont have any STI/STD. Going on for 3 years?
