What Are The Side Effects Of Oral Sex?
I gave oral sex to my boyfriend and I recently had a filling. The drill somewhat cut my mouth open. I'm really concerned now because my tonsils are completely swollen, my throat is in constant pain, my lymph nodes are swollen, and it's impossible to swallow food.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
There is an exchange of bacteria from penis to oral cavity when giving oral sex. This can cause infection in the mouth including the tonsils and also give rise to enlarged lymph nodes. You should consult a doctor immediately and get examined. A throat swab might be necessary. Antibiotics taken for a few days usually helps. Please be careful in giving oral sex and use of condoms by your partner will prevent any infection in you.
