Avatar n tn I’m a health-conscious heterosexual British male in my twenties in the UK, and have consulted your replies to others in the past and applied that advice to situations I’ve experienced to help determine various risk factors in different (sexual and non-sexual) experiences. So again, thank you for this resource. I understand that there is generally no need to worry about HIV and/or hepatitis from kissing.
Avatar n tn The sides of my tongue has flat linear black patches. Since birth. But there is no pain or any problem. Is it dangerous?? Should I immediately consult doctor?

Avatar n tn Hi, i am 6 weeks pregnant (first pregnancy) and noticed that my tongue turned black. I scrapped my tongue and the black color came off, but when i woke up today my tongue was again black. I am not taking any medication or ate anything of black color.
Avatar n tn Each time the activities that took place were french kissing, protected blowjob (apart from one time), unprotected cunnilingus (tongue deep in to the vagina) and protected sex. After the first month I had a couple of tests done that came back negative. Im very anxious that I have been infected with sexual diseases. I have been very stupid in my behaviour, i am a young guy and have learnt my lesson. What is the chances of me being infected with STD's or HIV/Aids.
Avatar m tn Ever since I have had strange foreign object sensations in the throat, a white furry tongue, rhinitis, sinusitis, headaches, laryngitis and intermittent facial pains around the upper teeth area. I always want to clear my throat but can't and the whole thing is driving me crazy. I have been tested three times for HIV (after six weeks, five months and seven months) and all three tests were negative. Swabs have been taken of the back of the throat and tongue and nothing has been found.
Avatar f tn Got what appears to be a rash on my tongue and after looking it up it appears to be geographic tongue and I was wondering if geographic tongue was indicative of any diseases. I recently posted on the HIV forum and was told I was in a no risk category but maybe Im just being stupid but I recently developed this rash that I never noticed before and was hoping for any insight on whether this is a symptom of any diseases. I also drink a lot and have been stressed a lot so maybe those contribute.
Avatar m tn Hi, I tried the picture links and couldn't open them. But, here's some information for you any way. What you 'sound' to be describing does sound like geographic tongue. It has a patch that has a whitish border around it. It is kind of like what something would look like on a map (geographic . . .). Here's some information and the link has a picture that you can copare to what you have. https://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar f tn My question is, would a saliva hiv test, (at a life insurance screen), which took saliva from under the tongue, be conclusive at 4 months after possible infection? Are these under the tongue type tests accurate? It was negative i assume, since i did get the insurance. Thanks in advance.
Avatar m tn after 4 days it wasnt getting better and i had developed exudates on my tonsil, i also had developed a rash on my tongue red blood spots down the side of my tongue that fits with step throat, i was given pen v by the doctor and with 36 hours i was better. Now 4 days post that i have developed a single small ulcer in my mouth under my tongue. I have also noticed some yellow lumps at the end of my tongue however these aren't ulcers and i believe them to be lymphoid aggregates.
Avatar n tn I noticed the furry yellow tongue a week ago, I've been brushing tongue and using listerine it helps for a few hours and then come back I have IBS also. TIve been using Benifiber for a 3 weeks now and wonder if this was the cause. I'm usually very regular and for a few weeks was not so I used Miralax I wonder if these things are causing the yellowing on our tongues?? Does anyone have any answers for us?
Avatar m tn In addition, consistent and correct use of latex condoms reduces the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including diseases transmitted by genital secretions, and to a lesser degree, genital ulcer diseases. Condom use may reduce the risk for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated diseases, e.g., genital warts and cervical cancer.
Avatar m tn Hello everyone I have some questions that none seems to be able answear...i've been sufering from geographic tongue (bald patches on surface of tongue) my main concern is: I don't know if these patches are like open windows for other infections to go in like cuts or open sores I don't want to put my self at risk for any other diseases specialy during oral sex...
Avatar f tn I have read this is a low risk, and some uk website even said that up to 5% of hiv infections can be attributed to Oral sex in the UK! Is this true? I have concerns because my gums bleed sometimes, and I also had inflammation because my back tooth was coming through at the time. I also put my tongue into his foreskin while giving oral, blocking the air contact between tongue and foreskin/penis head, wouldnt this cause no air or saliva, making infection more likely?
Avatar m tn Breathing problems- Not sure what breathing problems you have but mine are manifested as seizure squeezing the jaw back restricting the trachea. Paralysis of the tongue has lead the tongue been sucked into the entrance of the throat causing an obstruction of both nose and throat. My advice from a senior nurse was to hang my head to the side or upside-down to re-establish a clear air pathway before I pass out. http://www.ion.ucl.ac.uk/national_hospital/national_hospital.
Avatar m tn I did ask my dentist about them he basically said the factors that could cause but didn't mention diseases. What types of diseases can cause canker sores? Do these diseases only cause canker sores or do they do other damage to the body? I'll make sure to bring it up to a physician my next visit.
Avatar m tn Hi there, I've had a couple of unsafe encounters over the past 6 months. All have been with what I'd term low-risk partners - heterosexual women from the UK and Europe. These were all one night stands with a mix of protected/unprotected sex however, so I can't be sure of their status. I haven't had any flu like symptoms or swollen lymph nodes, but have had a white tongue plus regular loose stools for a couple of months. Are these likely to be symptoms?
Avatar f tn I am really concerned as I engaged in deep tongue kissing with a man I'd just met and was on antibiotics so my tongue was raw from thrush. What is the risk of contracting HIV or Hepatitis with a raw tongue? I also noticed from about an hour afterwards that I had a bad taste in my mouth and my lips and tongue starting burning and still are burning a week later. What could be causing this? My doctor suspects Herpes and I'm on oral Acyclovir. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Avatar m tn Had a 32 day HIV finger test today result negative. My exposure was unprotected oral (receiving). How reliable is that test after 32 days? I know no-one has ever been documented catching it from that but I am testing to 12 weeks whatever anyone says. Also can you catch Syphilis from kissing? I have a slight red spot on my tongue not a spot as in a swelling etc just a red bit on my tongue.
Avatar m tn In addition, consistent and correct use of latex condoms reduces the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including diseases transmitted by genital secretions, and to a lesser degree, genital ulcer diseases. Condom use may reduce the risk for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated diseases, e.g., genital warts and cervical cancer.
Avatar n tn I went to a neurologist who concluded I had full strength and range of motion in my tongue and, even with the fasciculations I have everywhere (except on my tongue). sensory feelings versus weakness didn't suggest ALS. Any thoughts?
461010 tn?1208482459 3 months ago i got my tongue pierced, 2 weeks later i had unprotected oral sex, and 3 days after i developed some strange sores on my tongue. it seems like my tongue is irritated in certain spots. it seems like it happens more when i eat certain foods. it lookes like my taste buds are swollen. im not sure if it has anything to do with an oral std or something else, please help.

Avatar m tn Also the nature of test conducted like HIV Duo will give result in 28 days et al creates confusion among the people...it means if somebody in UK is negative in UK and if he moves in India the risk is still there....can u guys pls clarify ?
Avatar m tn Since the second day of my possible exposure(unprotected oral sex with prostitute) I got white tongue an fever (37.5). I also feel very weak, like I have no power in my legs, dry mouth and metalic taste, and I also saw some whiter spots on my tongue. I am very concerned... It's true that I've been smoking much... I'm really scared. In three hours from now I have an apointment with a doctor specialised in infectious diseases. Could HIV cause all these sympthoms after 2 days?
