I gave unprotected oral sex to someone for a few minutes the person never ejaculated. Three days later I started to have a little cough and felling hot. I am very concerned I caught something from this I have not been sleeping very well. I have taken my temp regularly and it has ran from 97.9 to 99.5.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
There are a lot of bacteria in the skin around the genital organs. In giving oral sex, some of the bacteria might have moved in to your your oral cavity and throat leading to a bacterial infection in the region. You may consult a doctor and get a throat swab culture done and take necessary antibiotics. Gargling is advised for soothing the throat. Please request your partner to maintain genital hygiene before receiving oral sex.
