Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

Please answer the following questions.

1. How often have you had sexual intercourse over the past two weeks?

2. Do you had sex with multiple partners?

3. Have you used protection at all times?

I suggest you take the following medications. Consult your specialist doctor, talk with them, and take medications with their consent.

1. Metronidazole 2 g once daily for five days.

2. Doxycycline 100 mg twice for five days.

3. Azithromycin twice daily for five days.

This is most likely a sexually transmitted infection, and I would suggest that you notify your partner and tell them that you are being treated and it would be best for them also consult a doctor.

Thank you.
