Holiday STD Testing at AFC Urgent Care

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), also known as sexually transmitted infections or STIs, are very common among people all ages in the United States. Especially for younger people, STDs are on the rise. In many cases, STDs come with a list of specific symptoms. From burning during urination to itching, to discharge and sores, it’s important to get tested if you are experiencing any of these symptoms.

Treating STDs

While many STDs can be treated or cured via medication, untreated STDs can lead to numerous problems. It’s highly recommended that you get tested for sexually transmitted diseases or infections if you’re sexually active. Even those who are sexually active with only one partner should consider testing. You can get tested for most STDs whether or not you have any symptoms present. This is why many experts prefer the term sexually transmitted infections (STIs) because you can have an infection present without any disease symptoms.
