Hi,
I have done a lot of online research, but nothing satisfactorily answered the two episodes I've recently had. About six months ago (December) I noticed I had about a dozen or so small red bumps all in my pubic hair area. They were not clustered, they did not hurt (unless I pressed really hard on them), and I didn't have any other physical symptoms such as fever, aching, or swollen areas. I also did not notice any in the my labia minora/majora. They persisted for exactly two weeks, slowly disappearing by drying up and fading away. Up until then my last sexual contact was a month prior, which was unprotected but was restricted to oral sex. I thought it might have been foliculitis.
I just had a sexual episode this week with a partner I am not entirely sure of history-wise, and today (the day after) I noticed a very small bump on the inside of the my labia minora, very near the lip towards the clitoris, and some skin shedding around the lips. It's a very fine shedding, and in very small spots, so it's not like a major scab falling off. Again I am not feeling any strange symptoms of itching, swelling, or pain. I am sensitive in the area in general because of the vigorous physical contact. I am also not sure if the tiny bump on my labia developed today or had been there for a few days. It is raised and but appears flesh colored and doesn't appear sensitive to touch.
I am fearing the worst which is an STD, possibly Herpes 2. While I know the symptoms are not typical, I also understand that it's rare for a disease like Herpes to behave in a predictable manner. I am just very worried about what the possibilities might be, and the best way to possible home-medicate this tiny bump on my labia if it is not STD-related.
Many thanks,
