writes:Hiya, i've just started university a few weeks ago and during freshers week I had a one night stand (actually it happened twice) and the condom split. Now i'm on the pill anyway, so that aspect is ok, but since then i've had a burning down below. Its not terribly bad, unless its touched or I wear really tight clothes that rub, so its not like a huge issue but its still worrying. It looks a little red down there and the inside looks a bit white, but that could be normal...I did wonder whether is was just pain and stretching as this guy had quite a large penis, and it did hurt a bit. Sorry, I know this is TMI but i'm quite stressed about it, and ideas what it could be? As i've just moved to a new city I literally have no idea where the doctors are, but am trying to find a clinic or something. Thanks in advance

 It can still be a yeast infection even if you see no discharge. Burning, swelling and a white fluid are symptoms of a yeast infection (among other things).
Why don't you set up a doctor's appointment and in the meantime start treating for a yeast infection? Head to your local grocery and go to the vitamins and supplements aisle to pick up a bottle of Acidophilus. The bacteria in these help to kill yeast. You can also pick up something called Monistat (Miconazole) which is an antifungal agent and used to treat yeast infections. You can usually find this where the other feminine products (tampons, pads, pregnancy tests) are.
Good luck!

 Could be irritation, a yeast infection, and STI, only a doctor can say for sure. I can't imagine your university doesn't have a clinic.

 I suggest you go to the health clinic on campus and get a work up
it oculd be nothing
it could be yeast
it coule be something else
we are not doctors and we can't make that call for you.
