Sexually transmitted infections will be transmitted to you through sexual intercourse with an infected person without using protection. Most people have always believed that STIs occur only on their genitals. However, STIs can happen in other places on your body. Therefore, the next time you suspect you are having STIs, check the following areas for signs:
On your facePeople always think that a cold sore around their mouth is always herpes. Signs of STIs can also appear on your lips, mouth, and tongue. The worst bit is that such types of sores (caused by STIs) can hardly be cured. They will always appear. You will only be taking medications to reduce their flare. You will never treat them for good. The best thing you will do it contain them with medications not to spread to other parts of your body.
In your eyesSTIs can happen in your eyes as a mysterious eye infection. Eye infections such as herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis could be as a result of STI infections. Such infections will affect your eyes in various ways, which include causing pain, redness, swelling and even some discharge from the affected eyes.
Therefore, always be careful whenever you having sex to avoid sexually transmitted infections, use protection.
