A member asked:

Can semen stay stuck in back of the throat after swallowing it from the penis. please help or is this and infection help!!!

Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Cannot be "stuck": Natural clearance plus swallowing will entirely eliminate residual semen within a few minutes, certainly within an hour or two. Any symptoms you have are not due to the semen. See a doctor if you remain concerned.
