Hi.. The treatment for gonorrhoea is use of antibiotics active against gonococcal bacteria.. The use of antibiotics is only after diagnosis of the condition.. Hence get if checked by a doctor...
why are you are thinking of gonorrhea ,until there is history of unprotected sexual contact .it is treatable,consult doctor & start right treatment early.Disclaimer

Hi dear
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
firstly , Why do you think it is Gonorrhea? The symptoms will be white discharge from penis , with a history unprotected sexual contact.
Secondly , you definitely need treatment .so , whether you tell your parents or not get it examined by a Physician to confirm / rule out Gonorrhea and then follow treatment accordingly.
Take care.
