Hi Well let me inform you stds is not a single entity, it is a constellation of many diseases. And every disease in it has different incubation period. Some remain latent for years and then produce symptoms as in case of hiv. So, doing test just after few days of unprotected sex and getting result is of no significance. There are couple of tests which you need to do to rule out stds and then we can plan accordingly for your problem of joint pain.
