Symptoms of STD infection can vary depending on the specific infection but may include pain or burning during urination, unusual discharge from the genitals, itching or burning around the genital area, soreness or itching in the rectal area, or unusual pain, swelling, or redness in the genitals.

What are the next steps after getting tested for an STD at AFC Stamford?

If you test positive for an STD, the next step is to get treated. Urgent care centers can provide treatment for many common STDs. In some cases, you may be referred to a specialist for more complex treatment.
