I tried squeezing it yesterday (it was very hard) and after a while a small bit of clear fluid came out along with a tiny bit of blood. It went down significantly after and I put savlon cream on it. I looked at it today and it’s pretty much flat, a bit sore and kinda has a yellow-ish/skin coloured layer over it. Do you think it could be an STI? I have my doubts though as I’ve only had sex with 2 long term boyfriends (C) and (A). C’s first time was with one of my best friends L, and they took each others’ virginities. C didn't sleep with anyone until me and him got together. I took A’s virginity. Me and C did do oral (unprotected) but this was a year ago. I’ve slept with A recently for the first time. A doesn’t seem the sort to cheat on me and he didn’t have any cuts, bumps or sores around/on his penis. We haven’t done oral. Me and both guys used condoms for vaginal sex. I personally doubt it’s herpes as I didn’t feel any tingling or pain until I ‘popped’ the little bump (I didn’t even notice it form), and it definitely wasn’t a blister. I don’t think its warts either since I’ve heard you can’t ‘pop’ warts. If it’s not gone in a few days I will get it checked out, but any ideas to what it could be? I’m getting really worried. Could it be an STI? Or just a simple irritated spot that I shouldn’t have picked?Many thanks :)

I doubt it's an STD... sounds like a boil or a cyst or even an infected hair... I get lumps and bumps all the time... I have one that comes in the same spot over and over and it hurts/itches etc.
I even had it cultured during a breakout that was so bad and the doctor and I were so sure it was herpes and it turned out to be NOTHING.... it's just what my body does and has done on and off since puberty...
IF you are concerned, by all means see a doctor (and during an outbreak is a better idea so they can culture it)
It seems for me, my mom had them as well and that it's just part of my make up... it may be a form of herpes (as is Chicken pox and shingles) but it's not sexually transmitted....
