Sti Without Sex?
Posted: 03-07-07 14:18pm

Basically I'm an average 17 year old guy, totally embarrassed by talking about this but ah well.

I have noticed that i have a small red area around the slit of my penis and a slight burning sensation can be felt inside occasionally when urinating and when the penis is squeezed.

Also i sometimes notice small spots/plukes, the kind you would find on your face developing in the genital area. The only difference is that, when burst, they leak yellowish pus. They don't appear often and are not very noticeable when they do but can be irritable now and then.

I haven't consulted a doctor about this but i have noticed these symptoms for a while and am wondering whether I should be worried at all.

The main point i have to make is I am a virgin and have never had any part of any other person touch my genital area ever. This is the main reason I am doubtful it is an STI but i just don't want to take the chance.

Any advice on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Son, this is nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed of, its human nature. Could this be from heat or sweat? You stated you have never engaged in sex nor been exposed, so I do not see how it coudd possibly be STD related. Anytime you feel discomfort or notice something is not quiet right, my advice is to have this looked at. Its not like the doctors have never seen this before. Kinda like a cavity in a tooth, ignore it and it gets worse until it rots out.....The burning could also signal a kidney infection. Do you have a health clinic in your area? Please take care of yourself! Fairy *Godmothers can only do so much! Laughing

I am assuming you have never recieved oral from what you have explained about no one touching your area. Your fine nothing to worry about then. What alot of people don't realize though is stis can be transmitted through oral contact to a mans genitals. But you sound like your all in the clear.

the only way an sti can be passed on without sexual contact is if your mum had it when she gave birth to you. i'm sure this is highly highly unlikely, i'm sure you're fine.

sounds like the spots you get might simply be ingrown hairs. as for the irritation around the tip, i'm not sure. if it occurs regularly or you are concerned about it my advice would be to see a doctor to put your mind at rest.

Have you been masturbating at all? Because I have and I have contracted some warts that I found exactly resembles all of the HPV information I have seen(I have know clue how this could happen considering it is a STD). Your condition sounds like Genital Herpes. If you have never had sex or did masturbation I highly doubt that it is Genital Herpes. However, if you have been masturbating then there is a possibly it is similar to what I have( except my warts don't leak which is a sign of HPV and not Herpes). If anyone has information on either my case or his case please post another reply. Thanks

JJbrown, I think it's time you go to the doctor. You keep posting about how you got HPV from masturbating, but that's impossible. You have to contract it from someone else such as your parents or through some sort of contact. Friction does not create a virus. I'm not sure of it's contagiousness through hand contact with someone who just touched their HPV, so maybe that's possible. However, you did not get it from masturbating without getting the virus from someone else.

Go to a doctor and find out what you've got.
