Question Posted Tuesday December 16 2008, 11:42 pm
my girlfriend and i have been going out for nearly 7 months now. we're both 16 and we're both virgins (she was actually my first girlfriend ever, first kiss, first everything. she gave me mono right away, lol). neither she nor i have ever had any genital sores of any kind before. we've been having off and on oral sex for about 4 months now.
Last week we tried having outercourse for the first time. we only did it for about 10-15 seconds at a time and before we did it, we wiped any pre-cum off of my penis. we were very careful despite the fact that we didn't use a condom. there was no penetration.
A few days after this occured, she felt some irritation down there and we checked it 2 days after that. she has a white sore roughly 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch in diameter on one of her labia majora just one. its painful to the touch. theres no fluid in it, and i can't be popped. it doesn't really look like anything on the internet. I don't get cold sores so it can't be that either. we're baffled. what could this be?
it might also be some kind reaction to an antibiotic she's been taking for a bladder infection. she got hives and headaches, but theres nothing like this noted or heard of in the side effects. is this a possibility?

If her mom doesn't know you two are "sexually active", then she can just tell her mom that she has a sore & thinks it may have something to do with her infection & she'd like to see the doctor.
If you two are each others firsts, then I don't see how it can be an STD. You didn't use a condom, so it can't be an allergy to latex...
Anyway, none of us are doctors, and even if we were, it wouldn't be that legal to diagnose her over the internet. It could be serious, or it could be nothing. You guys will never know unless she sees a doctor. [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]
