I am a 42-year-old male with prehypertension, on Benicar 25mg. Seven to eight months ago, I received a hand job from a dancer at a strip club, with no other sexual contact. Since then, I have experienced lower back pain, side pain, and random, brief tingling sensations on my penis. I also noticed a pimple on my butt. I am worried about having an STD, specifically HIV or herpes, and whether these symptoms could indicate something more serious like cancer or multiple sclerosis. Could I have contracted an STD from the hand job, and should I be concerned about other health issues?

I am experiencing intermittent sharp pains in my back, a feeling of fullness in my stomach but with hunger pains, and have been using Gas-X and Pepto-Bismol. I have ulcerative colitis (UC) and have been in remission for 5 months. I am a 30-year-old female with no associated bloating or flatulence, pain on both sides by my ribs, not overweight, drinking a little, and smoking one cigarette a week. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
