What Causes Severe Pain In Back, Knees And Flushing Sensation Post Intercourse?

I had previously been on this website asking a question regarding a new sexual partner. We had protected sex but during our encounter the condom slipped off and ended up getting stuck inside me. When this happened, he had not ejaculated at all but this is really worrying me. The next day, literally 12 hours later I began to feel the worse back pain ever and there was heat radiating from my mid-back to my upper back and neck. I could have injured it during our sexual encounter since I did have pain in the middle of my back on my spine when I would touch it. I did feel a bump and it was really painful. The pain lasted almost two weeks but I'm really worried it could be something else. It has been exactly 2 weeks since my sexual encounter and I'm beginning to feel other symptoms now. A few days ago, 3 days to be exact I began to feel knee pain which i have never experienced before. Then after that, the knee pain would come and go for about 2 days. That got better then I began to feel pain on my teeth and shoulders and neck. I have never experienced anything like this before. Not sure what is going on.. I'm extremely worried!!!!! My back pain has gotten better and no longer hurting however, I do feel heat from time to time. I have gotten a urine test to test possible STD's and those came back negative. However, I did have a bladder infection which I received antibiotics for. I don't have any other symptoms expect those that I described when I feel the pain in those areas, I sometimes begin to feel a little bit warm on my face and my forehead feels hot. It's like having a flushed feeling on my face which doesn't last too long. I haven't had any other symptoms except those that I have described but I'm feeling so lost and worried. I made an appointment with my primary doctor and I'm expected to see her on April 8th. Until then, my mind seems to keep making me think the worse and I'm very worried, Please help!!
Not likely to be an STD.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The intermittent pain in back and knees or the flushing sensation that you are having is not suggestive of any STD. These symptoms can be related to low Vitamin D3 levels or a generalized viral infection.
Sometimes a fluctuation in calcium, potassium or magnesium levels may lead to this kind of thing. This would be easy to treat with an over the counter multivitamin as well as a supplement of calcium with vitamin D. The symptoms should respond within 7 to 10 days.
I would advise that you support your body with good hydration, adequate sleep, a well-balanced diet and a moderate exercise regimen. Exercise is actually good for the immune system which is why I suggest it here. You will certainly feel better in next few days. It does not seem to be a serious issue.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thank you so much for your response. I have been so worried that I even lost sleep for a few days. My back has gotten so much better almost close to no pain but my shoulders, my teeth and my knees are hurting. What really concerned about these pains is that I have never experienced these symptoms before. The sexual encounter I had worried me since literally 12 hrs later my back began to hurt. Then after my back these pains began. I will have my physical next week Friday on April 8th but at least now I have some piece of mind. What worries me is that all these issues happened after that sexual encounter. Prior to that, I never had these problems. I know I'm stressed out and that can be triggering the symptoms even more, but it just seems so odd for my body to be feeling this way. I'm only 31 years old and have been healthy prior to this. Thanks so much for your answer, please let me know what others thoughts you may have of this..
Mild pain killer will help.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
It is just a chance that all these symptoms happened just after the sexual encounter. These are not suggestive of an infection. You can take a mild pain killer after meals for symptomatic relief.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
