Hi

I would recommend going to a clinic for a check up. It is common that sexually transmitted infections (STI) will cause discharge from the penis but there are also other medical conditions that can do this as well.

It can take a few weeks for someone to develop symptoms after they have had an STI passed to them.

Most of the time STI show no symptoms. So it is possible that if it is an STI that your past partner may have no symptoms at all.

Have a look at our STI clinic finder for a clinic in your area.

If there is no clinic in your area I would just recommend visiting your family doctor or a walk in clinic. Let us know if you need assistance finding a place.
