Q what steps should I take if I think Ive got an STI?
If you think you may have a sexually transmitted infection (STI), go to your GP or local Sexual Health or GUM (genitourinary medicine) clinic. Most STIs can be treated, but its important to get any symptoms checked as soon as possible. The indications of when you should go for checking include pain when passing urine,itching, burning or tingling around your genitals, blisters, sores, spots or lumps around your genitals or anus, black powder or tiny white dots in your underwear (this could be droppings or eggs from pubic lice). Unprotected sexual intercourse with unknown person should also get a checking.
