Brief Answer:
STD screening

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You son has been exposed to a sex worker and he did not use protection. I am glad to see that he has already had the urine tests for STD but he also needs to get HIV testing. He will need to be tested now again in 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months. It is unlikely that he has contracted an STD but to be absolutely sure he needs to continue testing over the next 6 months

I hope this answered your question. Please contact HCM again with your health care questions and concerns
