Suggest Treatment For Neck And Joint Pain
Question: Six years ago I performed unprotected oral sex on a lady I did not know very well three times. Stopped seeing her after that. A couple of weeks after that I had an itchy throat like something was struck in it but it went away after a few days.
I never thought about again until 5 months ago I started having a cough and really thick phlegm. Strep test as negative, oral Gonorrea swab was negative as well as urine test for Gonorrea negative. I had a cold sore and a infection on one of my teeth. Dentist cleaned the infection and gave me antibiotics. Now I have a really stiff neck, pain in some joints and sores starting to show up. ENT said I grit my teeth and it probably cause neck pain but nothing unusual in my mouth or throat. I think I may have systemic Gonorrea from the encounters six years ago but my DR. says I do not have an std.

Brief Answer:
Not STD, local dental infection plus tooth gritting caused it.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. A coitus act 6 years old can not be a correlation with recent neck pains and other systems after six years. All your buccal and genital swabs are clear for gonorrhea. Also gonorrhea does not wait for 6 years to show up.
The teeth gritting is the cause of neck pain and the dental infection which your doctor pointed at is another cause. Nutshell, treat these two infections and stop worrying about something you don't have .
I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
