Can Sore Throat And Headache After Unprotected Intercourse Indicate A STD?

Hi, I had a brief unprotected sex with a female whose sex history was not known.It was about 10-20 secs of penetration-when i got back to my senses--took the penis out and immeditaely ejaculated outside. One month after that I had a mild sore throat--no swollen glands...and half day of headache..the sore throat went away after I did salt water gargle for 3 days. Is this a possible STD symtom?

Thank you for query.Sore throat fever etc are nonspecific and may be due to even kiss or respiratory contact with the partner.it can be due to contact with any other person with respiratory symptoms.So these are non specific and does not suggest STD or HIV.So allay fears.So relax take plenty of fluids.
You can get back to me for any clarifications.Dr Bharatesh D Basti
