Why do I have fever and cough after protected intercourse?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

A few days ago I just had sex like thing. It means my penis touched vagina and proper sex did not happen. My sperm came out but my penis was covered with a double layered condom. Now, I am suffering from fever and cough.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Went through your post, as you have mentioned that you had used a condom, it is not possible that you could get an infection that is related to that sexual encounter.

Do you have anything like cold, sore throat, cough or loose motions, abdominal pain which could cause fever?

For more information consult an internal medicine physician online.
