I'm curious about something and maybe a health care professional can answer this. My dad was in hospital with West Nile. Because his spinal tap came back as positive for infection, they treated him with antibiotics for the HPV virus, (as a preventative as they didn't know what he had at this point). So what I want to know is if this is the same HPV virus as the sexually transmitted one?

They stopped the HPV antibiotic treatment once it was confirmed as West Nile, however I'm just curious why something like HPV was suspected in the first place, as his symptoms were high fever, tremors, incoherency and confusion, headache, etc. and really he just slipped into unconsciousness. I've never heard of that associated with the sexually transmitted HPV and I'm certain that they said they were treating for HPV infection as a precautionary.

Can HPV cause all those symptoms my dad had? Or would this be another strain or type of HPV?

My ex-wife got lice in her pubic hair. She believed she got the lice from having used a public toilet in an area where a lot of homeless people hung out during the day. She is a nurse, so I believed her. Now, my partner tells me that lice in your pubic hair is only transmitted sexually, and my ex-wife was lying to me; i.e., my partner is convinced my ex-wife had an affair, and got the lice that way. Does anyone know if you can get lice from using a public toilet?

My partner and I are currently on medication for the treatment of Chlamydia. We both started the same day and are close to being half way through our seven day prescription. We had unprotected sex and are not sure how this will affect our treatment. Is it possible that we will not be cured now?

I am a very paranoid person and have never hd a fever blister/oral herpes on my lip before. Well 2 days ago I got a small what looked like pimple but did not have a whitehead right at the top of my lip. I decided to squeeze it but seemed to make it more inflamed. It is very small hardly noticeable at all and not noticeable with makeup. Does this sound like oral herpes or just a pimple?? What does the fever blister usually look like and does it get bigger as the days go on? This had stayed the same size.

The thing is I believe I have had this for awhile now. When i was 5 I was forced into sex by a kid that lived near me. I lived in a rural town so there weren't many people I could hang out with so I agreed to keep the friendship. I've had the symptoms for awhile now, but I didn't realize that it was an STD until Health class this year. I haven't told my parents any of this yet. I could go to a planned parenthood, but I can't drive and the closest one is 15 miles away. Any suggestions?

Like...lets say that someone put a bodily fluid in my ice cream...

and they had hiv...

Could I get it?

One of the websites I was looking at said that HIV can survive in environments of 54 degrees and lower without being in the human body...

Is this true?

Should I worry?

My boyrfriend has a rash. It started as just a few tiny bumps, but then it turned to a scab. This is the second time this has happened. The first time, he went to the doctor and she said it didn't look like any STD she had seen, and the test came back negative. Now, it has come back again. He does seem to be irritated in the same area if he uses latex, and my nuva ring did the same. Three weeks ago, I switched my birth control. The bumps never got any bigger, and they didn't spread. He said that it does not hurt or itch. This seems to happen after he shaves. I've checked pictures online and it doesn't look like anything I can find. We have been together for 2 1/2 years, and I don't have any reason to believe he has been unfaithful. I just got my annual in July and everything was negative also. Can somebody please tell me what this could be?

I have an area that is red and sore in the *lips* of my vagina.
I lost my virginity and he used a condom and it caused a yeast infection. I was treated for the yeast infection and now the sore area is red and painful. This morning I took a qtip with alcohol and put some on the area.
It burned and had blood on it.
I am on my period right now and I have been tested for any diseases and they all came back negative.
What could be wrong...? It could also be because of the frequent shaving I do.

The girl I am dating told me she has HPV and it was found in a PAP Smear when she was 16. She told me it was not sexually transmitted because she had only had sex with one guy at the time and had used protection. I don't believe her. Is this possible?
