[QUOTE=ParkVille;1965687]Found a giant and painful bump on my d1 ck. Advice: just wear a condom. It might feel amazing without, but that STD is getting me down and out of the hobby for some time. Better in the longrun to wear the rubber, even if the girl is tested for the dreaded HIV, you can still get other things that don't easily clear up.[/QUOTE]A giant painful bump isn't necessarily an STD. Have you had it diagnosed by a doctor?

[QUOTE=Goatscrot;1828942]I really don't think exposing the risk of multi-drug resistant clap is "fear-mongering. "[/QUOTE]A urologist in Germany reported a case of the claps that was untreatable or hard as hell to treat (I don't remember which). The patient had brought back the bug from China. I wouldn't be surprised if China were the focal point, not because of sex but because of widespread misuse of antibiotics in chicken and pig farms.
I'm more worried about resistant STDs than I am about HIV too. Epicure was it who cut his veins in ancient Greece because he couldn't bear the pain of chronic gonorrhea? Let's hope science comes up with some fresh molecules before it gets that bad.
[QUOTE=ParkVille;1965687]Found a giant and painful bump on my d1 ck.[/QUOTE]Could be syphillis (chancre). Have it checked before it goes away because it will go away and it it's syphillis it will continue to 2nd stadium syphillis, which is bad.

Yeah I def need to get this checked out. I'm in Cambodia ATM so I can't here, but will when I get back to Bangkok. There is a white pus like center to it, so I'm starting to think isn't syphillis. But I think none-the-less, this has been a excellent wake-up call for me. If it isn't an STI, I'm glad it appeared to remind me of the repercussions of NOT wearing a condom.

Thank you for sharing you experience. Always, funny how others will read you post and say it is anything but an STD. I always restrained myself in Thailand because yes Thailand is heaven. But, can change to hell very fast. I just think in my head when I get tempted by those beautiful goddesses that I want to live to come back next year. Please, report back when you find out what it is. Also, did you get your skin problem from BBBJ or BBFS?

[QUOTE=ParkVille;1965687]Found a giant and painful bump on my d1 ck..There is a white pus like center to it[/QUOTE]A Doctor couldn't diagnose with this statement so why are guys posting what they think it is without asking any questions like 'where on the dick is this lump located? On the head, the shaft or the base? Did you happen to shave the area and possibly get an infected hair follicle? The photo attached looks awfully like an std but is in fact an infected hair follicle.

Thrush on glans
Hi fellows, I am writing for some info. Before arriving I noticed some light red spots on my glans. Something that usually goes away by itself and which I attribute to too much wanking. I had a fun time here and spots have grown in number accompanied by tickling sensation, not altogether unpleasant, around glans and foreskins. I am uncut. Now I am worried because I overindulged. I am better but still have soft red spots. I did research and found it may be "thrush" or phimosis? I can buy something at pharmacy. But WHAT? I can't very well come in waving my wedding tackle! And info greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]I find it bizarre that people would post very vague descriptions of a particular condition (for example, see Parkville's "giant and painful bump") and expect any competent accurate advice in return. There are some posters who are fond of acting like doctors on the forum with erudite quotes from medical sites, but I personally would not ask any anonymous mope sitting next to me on a barstool for medical advice, so ask yourself if you are willing to do that here.
If you just can't bring yourself to go see a doctor and want to attempt to self-diagnose, then suggest to put the description of your problem into Google and see if there are any rough matches. If it is a visible condition then you can use Google Images to see if there are images that match. Then if you can find possible causes then go to sites like WebMD to try to match the cause with specific symptoms and possible treatments. Whatever you do, if it gets worse, bite the bullet and go see a doctor. Good luck, AsianRain.

No self diagnosis
At times the problem your describing can also be some benign condition which does not need any treatment.
Best thing is to see a doctor and don't self diagnose.
Hope this answers everything.

You could show them a photo of the condition. No need to be too shy.
More costly is to go to a hospital and ask for immediate diagnostic swab tests to be sure very quickly.
Doctors can make mistakes as well if they are not specialised in the right discipline.
Recently I had a significant adverse condition, due to doctor prescribed anti-biotics for an infected finger. Can pay to do your own research as well, to at least know possible conditions and what complications can arise from various treatments. I don't trust doctors all the time.

Safe sex
I will try to explain couple of STDs.
A dose of tablet cefixime 400 MG and azithromicin 1000 MG just once will take care of Gonorrhea and chlamydia.
In case of mixed infections better visit a doctor.
A dose of Doxycycline 100 MG twice a day for 14 days will take care of Syphilis.
For HIV and Herpes you have to take universal precautions like use of condoms and use of sterile syringes.
No vaccines for above two.
Unprotected oral / anal / vaginal sex with a person suffering from sores increases likelihood of Herpes and HIV and also now their is resurgence of syphilis.

[QUOTE=BionicMan;1979000]But still I would not trust web wizards.[/QUOTE]Several times I have had a condition far too long because doctor was treating wrong condition and had not done suitable tests, some clinics in the world even refuse to do the tests (e. G. Germany), wanting to send you to a specialist wasting time. Doctor could have treated more than one condition concurrently if unsure.
It is wise to research to find out about all the possible conditions, so you can be aware when doctor might be treating the wrong thing, is a good possibility.
In Thailand, if any doubt about my condition, I like to go to hospital with diagnostic testing and get results of the test in an hour or so.

Today's trend is to go to the doctor with the diagnosis already set in the tablet and tell the doctor "I have this and I need this prescription".
How do they know? Read on Internet, msirwd some forum thread, based on word of mouth.
Sorry but I can't trust this.
I might get an opinion but can't honestly feel safe to use it.
Witchdoctors do better.

[/QUOTE]I like to be informed. If I see the doctor with red eye, I could tell him it may be the normal virus but check me for Chlamydia as well, just in case. Start treatment for both conditions. Don't make me suffer for weeks with the wrong treatment.
Recently I suspected I had gout, based on internet reading. So I asked for the diagnostic tests to check if this was really the case and how bad it was if I had it, or did I in fact have something else.
I recently suspected I had Diarrhea caused by doctor prescribed Amoxislav (maybe spelled wrong). Doctor said it was not possible, after too short a period. Later it was agreed by another doctor that antibiotics probably caused it and Metronidazole would be the cure, as I had already learned from the internet.
Once long ago I had a bacterial infection of the mouth called Impetigo. First doctor I saw was treating me for Cold Sores. It wasn't working and simple antibiotics could have fixed it.
By all means use a doctor and medical tests when needed. The internet makes us better informed about possibilities that the doctor was ignoring, in his lack of wisdom some times. General practitioners are not expert on all things.
I once had a skin specialist diagnose my scalp acne as dandruff. Was absolutely laughable. A subsequent skin specialist agreed it was acne of course. It is up to the doctor to convince me, that he really knows what he is doing. I have learned from blindly following bad advice.
Sometimes we know very well what is our condition, and seeing a doctor can be a waste of time and money. Very good pharmacists can know a lot as well. It sometimes boils down to how serious is your condition and how urgently you need it fixed.
If someone had an STD, they might need it fixed in hurry, and could just go start the medication immediately, that fixes Gonnoreah, Chlamydia, and Trichomoniasis, being the most common problems. Get tested as soon as practical.
Recently some guy reported he might have thrush. I know very well how to get something to treat that from pharmacy, and would not need to see a doctor, unless it appeared more serious.
