Brief Answer:
thank you so much for your answer. this is very helpful.

Detailed Answer:
since there has been an exposure, there is certainly a reasonable chance that this could be a sexually transmitted infection. infections such as Chlamydia and others can cause this, and they are usually curable with antibiotics. I recommend that you see a doctor for cultures and an exam as soon as possible so you can get the proper testing and treatment. please let me know if you have any more questions. I would be happy to help.
