Can STD Be Contracted Through Kissing?

default
Posted on Wed, 6 Sep 2017
Question: I also may have touched my lips near her nipple briefly

Ok, I am worrying myself crazy because I'm married for many years and I'm not certain if I should have unprotected sex with my wife. I also have the guilties.

I was at a strip club the dancer kissed me on the lips no tongue I pretty sure.

She touched me on my penis a bit but not to climax and I fingered her and she got wet.

Am I ok? Have you ever known someone to contract something this way?

Thanks in advance for your help and sorry I'm taking your time.

No risk of STD

Detailed Answer:
Hello. thank you for writing to us

I am Dr. Kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist). I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.

Dry kissing on lips and touching one's genitals with fingers and/or mutual masturbation are absolutely safe acts and carry no risk of transmission of STD. You can safely have unprotected sex with your wife.

Feel free to ask further queries.

Doc, I will rate u 17 stars after this quick follow up.

So I presume my lips on her nipple was safe to! Very brief and no sucking or biting.

So no cases ever from my actions?

Do you have any great cure for the guilties?

Thanks Regards

Brief Answer:
You are safe

Detailed Answer:
hi.

Sucking nipples is also not a risk. Mutual touching and rubbing of genitals, dry kissing, sucking breast/ nipples are absolutely safe acts. STDs are only transmitted by unprotected sex, either penovaginal, anal or oral sex. Since you did not have actual sex with her... so dont feel too guilty about it and get over it.

Doc promise I will rate u just after a short follow up.

I failed to add she pushed her vagina while dancing to my lips but I'm pretty confident she had panties on and I don't believe she touched my lips skin to skin albeit it could have happened for a split second.

By the way you helped me out of a similar jam a year or so ago

You are a nice man and doc

No risk

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

Still it does not amount to STD risk. I told you only unprotected vaginal, anal or oral sex can lead to transmission of STDs. So, touching/ kissing the outside of vagina Or kissing with panties on...No risk!!!
