HIV penetrates through the skin and into the body through tiny tears or sores in mucous membranes in the mouth, vagina or rectum. Chlamydia and Ureaplasma Chlamydia is the most common bacterial STD in the U.S. today. Incubation after infection is at least 7 days. A course of antibiotics will usually be prescribed. Avoid alcohol until cured because it may irritate urethra.
Most women are asymptomatic and many symptoms are mild or can be confused with other conditions.
Symptoms include a rash, chills, fever, pain in joints, tendons of wrists, or fingers. May also have sores on hands, fingers, feet, or toes. Within a few days, they rupture, leaving shallow ulcers that may ooze, weep, or bleed. Usually after 3 or 4 days a scab forms and the sores heal themselves without treatment. While sores are active, you may find it painful to urinate and may have a dull ache or a sharp burning pain in the entire genital area, sometimes spreading to the legs.
