Hello Doctor,

I wrote a few weeks ago about a massage with protected oral sex. I have two quick questions.

For your information, on June 2, I had a massage with protected oral sex. There was no contact between the masseuse's mouth and my penis without a condom. The oral sex was 100% protected.

One hour later, I took 200mg of doxycycline because I was afraid I had taken a risk of contracting an STI.

Welcome back to the Forum although I don’t see any questions here.  Your previous questions were answered and repeating them serves no purpose.  EWH---

Sorry, I had computer problem before I finish the question.

I had redness on the outside of foreskin since Sundaywith intermittent itching. Maybe from friction or irritation

Could it be syphilis ou herpes? Despite the 3 month delay from this event, doxypep I Took and the 7 days of doxy in August?

The symptoms you describe do not suggest an STI.  This is not herpes- what you describe in no way suggests herpes and newly acquired herpes lesions occur within 10 days of an exposure.  As for syphilis, as previously stated ( repeatedly) the doxycycline you took assures us that this is not syphilis.  Finally, STI symptoms are not intermittent.

Friction or irritation from a non- STI cause ( like masturbation or chaffing) could certainly explain what you see.  EWH
