Fishy odor.

To cut the long story short, had a sexual encounter with another man, we did mutual masturbation and that's about it. Now here's the problem.

1) When he showed his uncircumcised dick it had an awful fishy/oyster smell coming from the foreskin/penis head when I pulled his foreskin back. I was in a situation whereby I could not reject him and so stupidly touched it. Made him cum, and used my cum stained (his) fingers to jerk myself off. I don't remember if we had a dick to dick contact, but overall it is a low risk encounter.

2) A few weeks later my dick now has that awful fishy smell around my foreskin, more so after I pee. And some slight burning sensation on my foreskin and urethra tip that comes on and off. Should I make a visit to the STD clinic or am I being paranoid over hygiene issues (rarely have fishy smell in the past before this encounter).

3) Checked the internet and boiled it down to: yeast, bacterial infection, chlamydia, trichomoniasis or bacterial vaginosis. It's been a month, no discharge or bumps yet. Gonna make an appointment next month though for a full STD screen.
 
Go to the doctor's ASAP and get tested. Like do it tomorrow or the following week. Don't wait for another month.
 
A fishy odor is very typical of a trichomonas infection. It's something that you will need to get a prescription medication to treat. You should not have sex with anyone until it has been treated.

While you're at the doctor, it's probably a good idea to have an STD panel done.

The STD clinic is government subsidised and requires an appointment but I manage to make one 2 weeks later.
 
sounds like you learned your lesson. Next time you go down on a guy and it stinks, tell him no.

Agree but he was quite forceful and even made me lick his nipples (chances of STD for that?).

No more casual meetups, ever.

My visit/test has been extended to next month. The fishy smell has reduced but I went to my GP today and he gave me doxycycline for 7 days. Will be checking in the next few days to see if my symptoms are gone, but I will still go to a full STD test next month just to make sure.
 
that terrible fishy oyster smell is more or less gone.

i went to the clinic and did a test for all the stds and hiv. the nurse brushed off that i had contacted trich because according to him it only spreads from vagina to penis or vagina to vagina only, and said the fishy smell was a hygiene issue due to foreskin.

waiting for my results now.

Any updates? I hope all is well now.
 
my tests were all negative. the smell does not appear until after the end of the day. I suspect it is the urine system that might have caught something.
 
the smell is still there and especially bad after work. recently I feel a little burning sensation in the penis urethra, suspecting it's trichomoniasis as it is the only STD that has fishy symptoms. the only problem is the STD clinic refuses to test out on me because the nurse said u can only get from contact with vagina. I only have 2 choices and will try option 2 most likely.

1) Go back to the STD clinic and lie about having sex with a girl. they would test it but might take weeks for results and have to return
2) Go to my family clinic and request for Metronidazole. if symptoms does not disappear back to option 1
 
just an update:

My doctor said it cant be trich and put me up on cipro for 10 days. I see improvement the day I took the medicine less redness and no smell. Will update again in a few days.
 
CIPRO? A Quinolone??? Stay away from Quinolones. the most dangerous antibiotics on the market. As the FDA website says about Quinolones: "The drug of LAST RESORT." Doctors should be shot for using Quinolones as the opening antibiotic.
It's 5 years later, but people need to read up on Quinolones. I don't care HOW effective they are, they are DEADLY. And don't believe just because your doctor says, "I've given these of 500 people," that you won't be the one whose tendons it ruptures. I suggest you ALL read about Quinolones.

Got anything to say about that, KaraBulut?

Five years later...

I do remember this thread and at the time I remember thinking, "What was the presumptive diagnosis that resulted in the Cipro choice?".

Quinolones were over-prescribed for a while but they do have an appropriate usage for difficult to treat infections that don't respond to other drugs. It's one of the few antibiotics that we have that has a broad coverage that includes gram-negative bacteria.

The big problem with quinolones is that they seem to have an effect on connective tissue. This can be as mild as a temporary case of tendonitis or it can be as severe as an achilles tendon rupture or aortic dissection. This was discovered because when Cipro and Levaquin first came out, doctors were prescribing a 14 day course of a quinolone with a corticosteroid (e.g. prednisone, medrol dose-packs) for sinus infections. These patients who were taking both a quinolone and a corticosteroid had a high incidence of Achilles tendon rupture. The risk is low for a short course when there's not an alternative because of an allergy or a culture result that shows antibiotic resistance. When the course is 14 days or more, then the risk increases greatly.

In the past 5 years, the healthcare practitioners have rethought the way that we prescribe antibiotics. It used to be that when you went to your doctor with an upper or lower respiratory infection, they would routinely prescribe antibiotics. Now, they are likely to tell you to go home and rest and if it doesn't get better, we'll do an x-ray or a CT. For a sinus infection, you're more likely to get the corticosteroids and if that doesn't work, then they will followup with an antibiotic if a CT of the sinuses shows a chronic infection.

In the case of someone with a "fishy odor", antibiotics would be appropriate but the question that is in my mind is, "What exactly was being treated here?".
