How Is STD Transmitted?

default
Posted on Mon, 21 Apr 2014
Question: If i had a sexual massage with a prostitute and she masturbated my penis with her hand while i was stimulating her vagina with my fingers, is it possible to catch a STD. The reason for my question is the head of penis has been hot and irritated ever since that encounter and i'm wondering if i may have an std? Please provide all the possible causes for the irritation to penis head, in addition it usuallys hurts more after i masturbate.

Brief Answer: Thank you for using hcm Detailed Answer: it is not common to contract an std from contact with hands only. that is because most studs are transmitted by exchange of moisture from an infected person. so if she washed her hands before she have you a massage, she likely did not give you an std from a previous customer. however, if you touched yourself after touching her vagina, or if she touched herself then touched you, it is possible to have contracted an std from her due to something she may have had. however, burning like you decribe is more likely to have been caused by simple irritation from the stimulation and maybe from te lubricant she may have used. so I doubt it is an std, but it is not impossible. I would recommend that you get tested anyway just for reassurance. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions, I would love to help you.
