Genital Herpes.

Resolved Question:

I recently had a guy come over and we fooled around. First he masturbated for a few minutes ( he did not ejaculate) then masturbated me with the same hand for a few minutes. Soon after I put a condom on ( he did not) and we rubbed our penises together till I ejaculated in the condom. He never did ejaculate. I'm worried i may get a STD from this encounter. Should i worry?

Hello,

Thank you for choosing DoctorSpring.

You are unlikely to get a STD from this encounter. Common STDs like HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphillis etc will not get transmitted by indirect or superficial contact. The only risk you have is for a Herpes infection ( Genital Herpes or HSV 2), but it more of a theoretical risk and I do not think you need to be worried about that.
Hepatitis B and C also will not spread like this. I assume that your partner did not have obvious ulcer , rashes or lesions in the genital area. So your risk is low

Hope this clarifies
Feel free to ask followups
Thank you


Patient replied :

How long would it take for herpes to show symptoms?


It can take anywhere between 2 to 14 days for herpes to show symptoms. Since yours is a low risk exposure you need not be worried about STDs much. Let me know if you develop any unusual lesions or blisters (which is very unlikely)

Thank you
