Walk-In STD Testing Available at South Tampa Immediate Care in Tampa, FL

Walk-In STD Testing Tampa FL

If you think you may have been exposed to a sexually transmitted disease (STD) or you are experiencing symptoms, you’re probably concerned, and that’s understandable. There’s no need to stress yourself out even further by waiting for an appointment to be tested. At South Tampa Immediate Care in Tampa, FL, we perform STD testing on a walk-in basis seven days a week. This means you can simply stop by whenever it’s most convenient for you, talk with a board-certified or board-eligible physician, receive an appropriate test, begin your treatment (if necessary), and get on with your life. We can eliminate the waiting – and the worry!

STDs don’t always produce noticeable symptoms, but when they do, the signs are often vague or flu-like and easily attributed to other, less serious conditions. Therefore, it can be difficult to know whether you have an STD without being tested. At South Tampa Immediate Care, we encourage everyone to become familiar with the common signs of STDs and to promptly bring them to the attention of a medical professional if they occur. Remember, at our office, you can discuss any concerns you have in a nonjudgmental environment.

Common STD symptoms in women include:

  • Unusual vaginal discharge or bleeding
  • Vaginal itching
  • Blisters, warts, or rash in the genital area
  • Pain or burning sensations during urination
  • Pain during sexual intercourse

Common STD symptoms in men include:

  • Blisters, spots, bumps, or lesions on the penis
  • Unusual discharge from the tip of the penis
  • Pain or burning sensations during urination
  • Pain duration ejaculation
  • Itching at the tip of the penis
  • Rash on the penis, testicles, or groin

It’s essential to pay close attention to these signs of an STD. Otherwise, an infection could go undetected and untreated, which could lead to long-lasting or even irreversible effects, such as infertility.

As with any medical test you receive at South Tampa Immediate Care, you can rest assured that the results of your walk-in STD testing will be kept completely confidential. Stop by at your convenience, or if you prefer, text “immediate care” to (626) 414-3210 to check in virtually, and we’ll let you know when to come to our office at 602 South Howard Avenue in South Tampa.
