Ask QC: Double Trouble – Do I Have An Oral STI and ED?

Dear QC,

I recently had my first sexual experience with another guy (although I had been with girls before). We used a condom for anal, but not for oral (of course). I am only 18, and he is 5 years older than me, but is very sweet. The morning after, I had a sore throat, and a few days later a large red bruise-looking-thing appeared on the roof of my mouth.

All of my friends have agreed that this is not normal. When I asked him if he felt well, he responded that he had been tested recently. I have no clue what I should do. I want to believe him, so what if it came from the last girl I was with? Should I get tested? I
want him to know if I have something like Gonorreah or HPV or herpes or some infection that can be cured.

It’s been a week, and the bruise is still there, and I have trouble speaking. I am afraid to visit the doctor, because I am still in highschool and do not want my parents to know if I had an sti. Any clues what it could be? I heard that sometimes if you suck too hard while giving head, you can injure your mouth. If anyone has had this happen to them, I would be glad to hear of it.

On another note I had no trouble getting an erection while we made out, but as soon as my pants came off, away went my boner. It came back later in the night, but never long enough to cum. I think it might be a result of all the gay-bashing my family has done in my presence, and that I might be mentally killing my boner. Any tips to conquer that problem???

Weird sores and boner trouble are the worst and though the internet’s definitely not the best place to diagnose one’s self, perhaps our readers can help. Has our advice-seeker caught something in his mouth or is he just ill? And how might he reclaim his cock from the boner-killing antics of his homophobic family?
