You might try a lube that is glycerin free (glycerin can be very drying) or something organic.

http://www.sliquidorganics.com/ - there are others, that's the first one I found in a search.

it dont matter what lube i use i always get this problem when i use lube and std is ruled out my girlfriend that im with now we lost our virginity to each other 3 years ago and have been loyal ever since so std is no concern just tryin to find out if its a rash,irritation,or yeast from the lube.i know its in the wrong form i guess but didnt know where to put it but no matter wut the lube i use i always break out and cortizone creams get rid of it within days.

Do you use the same brand of lube all the time? And is it flavored or scented? I get rashes from the flavored/scented ones so I can't use those.

If that is the same brand, you can always switch it up and try a couple different ones. There is a lot of free sample lubrication sites so you don't have to go crazy and spend all kinds of money.

thanks for your reply it dont take that long to heal up i used a water based lube during sex with my girlfriend we have  a very loyal relationship but after i got done i got those little bumps only this time i used cortizone cream dont think thats how you spell it sorry but after like 5 days of applying it the bumps were gone. So i think its the lube everytime it comes back i get a reaction to it so no more lube i guess bummer if you dont mind send another reply if this makes sense thanks jessie

It might be, but that's a long time.  Have your doctor check it out.
