I am wondering if I have gonorrhea. I had sex just over a week ago with someone who was said they were clean. A couple days ago I used nair on my butt and now have a mucous discharge from my anus and the nair gave me a chemical burn around my cheeks. Is there a reason to be concerned
Hello You just mentioned that you had a sex but didn't mention with whom? Write down about whether you are a female or male . Type of sex is important . Incubation period is also important. Gonococcal proctitis ( discharge from anus ) occurs on both male and female and homosexual men secondary to ANAL receptive intercourse. Can be asymptomatic . Mucopurulent dischrage can be seen ( as in your case). According to query it is not possible to diagnose . So get in a gram stain of urethral specimen showing polymorphonuclear cells ( PMNS) with intracellular gram-negative diplococci is considered diagnostic. Culture , nucleic acid hybridization tests and NAATs. In my opinion consult a physician and get his opinion. Good luck.
