Hi,

If you are a virgin & if you have never gone for even foreplay then it is not STI. Sometimes, when something touches your skin the immune system takes it as an attack & over reacts.

The bumps can be because of some allergy caused to your sensitive skin, take non-sedating antihistamines (Levocetirizine) twice daily for 5 days or once daily for 10 days.

You can take antibiotics like Dicloxacillin (500mg) twice daily for 5 days & Acetaminophen (Tylenol) one SOS when pain or inflammation.

Apply calamine lotion or hydrocortisone ointment locally. Cold compress is quite effective.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
