The only opening for an appointment at the clinic is a week after i started noticing the symptoms.
Am I going to be okay?
And I also would like to know if I can masturbate.
(A little clueless due to the fact that this is the first time I've ever contracted an STD.)
You should be okay. Look for an earlier appointment somewhere else if possible.
Use common sense: is masturbating the smartest thing to do at a time like this? I'm sure you can hold back for a week…
