Are STD's Related With Hives And Joint Pain?
Hi Doc, im 30 yea comes and goes, 30 yrs old and my problems are skin rash like hives, fever, joint pains and diarrhoea. Two months back i was infected an std which i believe it's either gonorrhea or clamydia. I was on many antibiotics for a month. I feel the gonorrhea and clamydia are gone but the body ailments are still there. I have been reading a lot about std in the net and all it comes to my mind is hiv which is really worrying me at the moment, So dear doc, i would like to know from you more about other std which resembles symptoms of hiv. thank you!
