Can Oral Sex Give STD In The Form Of Huge White Spots At The Back Of The Throat Or Is It Just Sore Throat?
Hi. I am just going to be straightforward and say that six days ago I gave a man a blow job. It didn't last very long, he didn't cum or anything, I just stopped because I was feeling uncomfortable. Anyway, this morning I woke up and my throat was hurting very bad. All through out the day the irritation continued and it even got worse! Then tonight before brushing my teeth I looked in the mirror and saw huge white spots located at the back of my throat. They almost look like puss. They are on either side of my throat, new my lungs. Now I've done a little bit of research. Some people say white globs in the back of your throat is common when you have a sore throat. Only, I have had a sore throat before and I never dealt with white globules of whatever it is that is in the back of my throat now. It is completely new. So I don't know if I have mono or if...? I just... I am aware you can get an STD from oral sex. Is it possible that the white stuff in the back of my throat an STD or is that too far fetched?

Hi my dear,
Yes, it is true that you can get STD during oral sex especially when it comes to herpetic infections as your symptoms indicate.
I suggest to consult an ENT specialist as soon as possible and to run further STDs testing.
Your symptoms might indicate other non-stds infections like candida, coo on viruses and bacteria. However, further evaluations are needed.
All the best!
