Gonorrhea?
Expert ReplyCondition analysis:
Some men with gonorrhea may have no symptoms at all. However, men who do have symptoms, may have:
-- A burning sensation when urinating;
-- A white, yellow, or green discharge from the penis;
-- Painful or swollen testicles (although this is less common).
Most women with gonorrhea do not have any symptoms. Even when a woman has symptoms, they are often mild and can be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection. Women with gonorrhea are at risk of developing serious complications from the infection, even if they don't have any symptoms.
Symptoms in women can include:
-- Painful or burning sensation when urinating;
-- Increased vaginal discharge;
-- Vaginal bleeding between periods.
Rectal infections may either cause no symptoms or cause symptoms in both men and women that may include:
-- Discharge;
-- Anal itching;
-- Soreness;
-- Bleeding;
-- Painful bowel movements.
You should be examined by your doctor if you notice any of these symptoms or if your partner has an STD or symptoms of an STD, such as an unusual sore, a smelly discharge, burning when urinating, or bleeding between periods.
