Sexually Transmitted Diseases

At Ziva Skin Clinic, we offer confidential, accurate, and compassionate care for the diagnosis and treatment of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs). Your privacy, comfort, and health are our top priorities.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases are infections spread through sexual contact (vaginal, oral, or anal). Some infections may show clear symptoms, while others can remain silent but still cause complications.

Early diagnosis is important to prevent long-term health problems.

Common STDs We Manage

  • Human Papillomavirus (HPV) – Genital warts
  • Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) – Painful blisters
  • Syphilis – Painless ulcers, rashes
  • Gonorrhea & Chlamydia – Discharge, burning urination
  • HIV screening & counseling
  • Fungal & bacterial genital infections

Symptoms You Should Not Ignore

  • Genital sores, ulcers, or blisters
  • Unusual discharge
  • Itching, irritation, or burning
  • Pain during urination or intercourse
  • Rash on palms or soles
  • Swollen lymph nodes

Even if symptoms are mild, testing is recommended if you have had unprotected exposure.

Risk factors for these infections

  • Having multiple partners
  • Having intercourse with sex worker
  • Men having sex with men
  • Unprotected sex

Symptoms
