Posted on Thu, 12 Dec 2019
Question: Hi, I wish to know how quickly a person can get affected from an std? For example if I was infected could i pass it on 24 hours later?

Im symptom free but paranoid and my partner mentions a sore at the the top of her mouth beginning to start.

I stupidly received oral sex with a sex worker. then less than 24 hours later while drunk let my girlfriend do the same. following morning I was tested but awaiting results.
