Can chlamydia be mistaken for another problem?

When chlamydia is diagnosed by laboratory testing, rather than a clinical diagnosis, it is not likely to be a mistaken diagnosis.

Just get tested and treated, and if you have any further procedures, abstain from intercourse according to the directions given by your health care provider. There are no special chlamydia risks with an open wound, but there are other risks -- if your partner has chlamydia, the parnter has put him/herself at risk for bloodborne pathogens like HIV and hepatitis as well.
