2. Oral Gonorrhea Is Harder to Treat
If you get gonorrhea through oral sex, it might actually end up being even more of a problem. Symptoms of an oral gonorrhea infection can include a sore throat, swollen glands, and trouble swallowing. Both oral and genital gonorrhea require a course of antibiotics. Unfortunately, the throat has less blood vessels than the genitals, so it is hard for the medication to reach the infection. Lingering bacteria in the throat can become resistant to antibiotics, resulting in so-called “super gonorrhea.”
