Doctor for Oral STD

There are many reasons you may need an ENT doctor for oral STD conditions. An ear, nose, and throat doctor, called an ENT, can help with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of all types of sexually transmitted diseases related to oral infections. If you have been diagnosed with such a condition or you believe you could have symptoms of them, it is best to turn to a specialist for immediate help. An ENT doctor for oral STD can offer a solution to you.

What Types of Oral STDs Occur?

There are various types of oral STDs. The most common of these include:

  • Chlamydia
  • Gonorrhea
  • Syphilis
  • Herpes simplex virus, both types 1 and 2
  • Human papillomavirus (HPV)
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

If you believe that you have any of these conditions, working with an ENT is essential.

What Are the Signs of an Oral STD?

There are various signs of these conditions. However, most people do not have any symptoms for some time. If there is any risk that you have contracted a sexually transmitted disease, you should talk to your doctor. A family doctor can help to diagnose these conditions and an ENT can help you to treat it.

While treatment options exist for most types of oral STDs, prevention is by far the better option. To prevent these, individuals should avoid having sexual contact with others even through just oral intercourse. If you plan to be sexually active, it is best to choose just one person and ensure both take steps to minimize risks.

  • Additional prevention tips include:
  • Using a non-lubricated latex condom on the penis
  • Use a plastic condom if the partner is allergic to latex
  • Use a dental dam whenever possible
  • Abstain from vaginal, anal, and oral sex unless you are in a long term relationship with someone and it is mutually monogamous

If you’ve found yourself facing the risk of an oral STD, turn to a specialist for help. An ENT doctor for oral STDs can help you to have access to the best level of treatment and prevention possible. You can also learn more about your risks for contracting these types of conditions. Do not delay in making an appointment with our experienced ENT doctor in our Manhattan, New York offices.
