Hi, I Am M22 On No Medications And Usually Active

Posted on Thu, 22 Jun 2023
Question: Hi, I am M22 on no medications and usually active and healthy person. I have consulted about 3 doctors over here so far but couldn%E2%80%99t get any satisfactory answer. Hope you can help me out. About a month ago I went to a hooker and received unprotected oral from her, she kissed me before too, but I kinda pushed her away, she did manage to do a 3 minute tongue kiss%5B I saw her spitting blood afterwards, maybe it was tobacco idk, but I feel it was blood). I was with her for 30 minutes. When I was about to leave, I suddenly felt something coming up my throat and water coming out of my salivary glands, I started gagging and spitting, it was right away after receiving oral. It was so bad that I kept on spitting and the water kept on coming in my mouth. I reached home, brushed my teeth and used alcohol as mouth wash as I wasn%E2%80%99t having any mouth wash with me at time. Suddenly, the thought of std crossed my mind, although I knew that none of the infections could show symptoms this early, but I got stressed. The next morning I went for work and ended up coming back early because I was feeling nauseated and mucusy in my throat. I slept all day and went to the doc on day 3. Told him the story and ended up getting tested for all stds. The water in mouth was still there. Next 2 days were really difficult, I started having throat pain but a really weird kind of pain. Just below my XXXXXXX apple, I felt as if someone was chocking my throat and had a pinching pain. I ate something on my lunch break and felt that I had something stuck in my throat. I got so bad that I ended up finishing work early and reached Ed. Told the doc my story and they took tests for bacterial, viral swab and minonuclei. One week in, I couldn%E2%80%99t eat anything due to nausea. Throat pain was there but nil pain on swallowing. In one weeks time my doc called me and said all the tests were negative but I%E2%80%99ll need to get tested for hiv in 3 months. I told him about my throat and he gave me esmaprazole. The medication helped with throat pain, but I had fullness, bloating, burping and nausea which didn%E2%80%99t go away, along with excessive saliva. So much so that I am only eating one meal a day with great difficulty.

It has been 4 weeks in with the gastric issue, and I almost convinced myself that it%E2%80%99s all anxiety related when I developed a swollen lymph node in my right groin which is tender and was reddish in color initially. I went for the ultrasound and turns out that I%E2%80%99ve actually got 2 cysts, one superficial and other deep in groin. I have been getting pain in my stomach at times but burping and nausea is Persistent, so is watery mouth. It%E2%80%99s the end of 1 month today but I still have these symptoms that are not just going away.

All the docs that I have been to so far are trying to put it on anxiety.

My question is. Is it actually anxiety, I don%E2%80%99t feel emotionally anxious at the moment. Moreover, when I got the symptoms I wasn%E2%80%99t even thinking about any STDs, so there%E2%80%99s no point of being anxious around that time.

Secondly my symptoms started straight away after receiving oral and they were not mild at all. What can cause such symptoms this early? Can it be some sort of infection.

Thirdly I%E2%80%99ve got a 2 cysts in groin now. Is it still right for me to believe that it%E2%80%99s anxiety related.
If it%E2%80%99s not anxiety related what possible things it can be.

I really request you to go through all this. I%E2%80%99ve been really struggling a lot due to this issue now.
Thanks

Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service



The symptoms you experienced after the encounter with the sex worker could potentially be related to a variety of causes, and it's difficult to determine the exact cause without a proper medical examination.
However, it's unlikely that they are related to a sexually transmitted infection (STI) since symptoms of most STIs don't typically appear immediately after exposure.

The symptoms you described, such as throat pain, nausea, excessive saliva, fullness, bloating, burping, and stomach pain, may be indicative of a gastrointestinal issue. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), also known as acid reflux, could potentially explain some of these symptoms. GERD occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and discomfort. The medication you mentioned, esomeprazole, is commonly prescribed for GERD.

Regarding the swollen lymph nodes in your groin, it's important to note that lymph nodes can become enlarged and tender due to various reasons-


1. Infection: The most common cause of swollen lymph nodes is an infection in the surrounding area. This can include bacterial infections, such as cellulitis or an abscess, or viral infections like herpes or mononucleosis.

2. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs): Certain STIs, such as syphilis, gonorrhea, or chlamydia, can cause swollen lymph nodes in the groin area. If you are concerned about STIs, it's important to get tested and consult with a healthcare professional.







3.Immune system disorders: Certain immune system disorders, like HIV/AIDS or autoimmune diseases, can result in swollen lymph nodes throughout the body, including the groin area.
So groin swelling definitely needs further examination.


I Hope Your Query is clear now.
Feel free to ask if any doubts.
Thank You

I see. But i never had gerd before. can it be possible that i got some kind of bug from her while kissing her that caused my gerd? as ive heard that the bidy reacts to the pathogens by secreting acid?

secondly ive git my ultrasound done and its not a swollen lymph node, its actually a cyst. can a std cause a cyst? or can any other infection cause a cyst?

No, that is unlikely.
Most likely that day you had eaten something, that caused all those symptoms.
And
Yes STDs can cause cyst in groin area.

Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), can cause cysts in initial stage.
But within few months it becomes hard and increases in size.
But if your groin cyst remain same size, Then unlikely to be due to LGV.
AND THAT CAN BE HARMLESS SEBACEOUS CYST.
I Hope Your Query is clear now.
