warts?

I woke up on saturday morning to what seemed like an irritation on my inner left thigh towards the bottom part of my inner thigh. It was a red area. Well today, the area seems like bumps with a white top to it. They are tender to the touch. There are like 5 or 6 bumps all together in the little clump. I have not had sex for nearly 2 months, and before that it was with my gf who left the country. Have not had sex since. While I was with her I was tested for the common stds as well as hiv. I was also tested for herpes before I dated her. All negative. I do not know what these are. I do not think I can pop them, but they are small bumps. Does anybody know what these are? Is there anyway its an std? Also, she went to the obgyn before she left on her trip and everything was normal on her pap smear test. If her pap smear test was all good and we did not have sex after that test is there a way that I got warts? also, would the warts show up this fast?

they started as a patch of just red skin on saturday. At that point I thought it was an irritation. Then it started to show bumps, thought they were ingrown hairs (i shave in that area sometimes). Now they are bumps with little white tops. (kinda look like pimples but don't pop) I am scared. Would they develop taht quickly if it was an STD?

that is your choice, Honestly I bet you if the doctor told you that and you didn't test you will still have it in the back of you mind and you'll be checking every day and stressing about it. better to get it out of the way than to wait and put your self through the anxiety.

yeah I understand that. If the doc looks at it and feels that I have nothing to worry about should I test anyways?

ooo I see, read it wrong. I would recommend testing for HSV just to make sure, I understand that it is a doubt in your mind but you have to be sure that it isn't something you contracted from her. It def. can be anything so at this point your best best would be to see a doctor before the sores heal for a diagnosis.

no just my gf who went out of state. We dated for around 5-6 months. I have only been with her. I was tested before her for HSV 1 and 2 and was negative. I was tested for the common ones while I was with her but not HSV. Its going on 2 months since she left. I have not had sex with anyone else but her in the past 8 months

were you tested after the girl you had sex with 2 months ago? herpes doesn't have to be on the genitals.. it is skin to skin. If  you just had sex with the girl 2 months ago your results wouldn't be conclusive until 3 months post.
From what i'm reading  you've been with 2 ppl recently your GF who went out of state and another girl 2 months ago. correct?

I was tested for HIV ghonno syphilis, and chlamydia while with her. I was tested for everything including HSV 1 and 2 before with her. All negative. I do not think that it is herpes because they are not on my genitals. That is what scares me. They do not look like blisters at all. I do work out a lot and could be from that. It is toward the bottom of my leg. She gets blood work done all the time as well. I can go to the doctors maybe this sat if you really think I should.

If you've been with someone else unprotected as you should know since you've been on this forum, you were again at risk for all STDs. This doesn't at all sound like HPV but more like HSV. BUT as you should know again we can't diagnose you, we can only provide you with an assessment,  they could also be many other things and the only way is for you to see your doctor BEFORE it heals, you're going to want to get a swab of it if possible. I would also recommend retesting for all STDs since you've had a new encounter.  3 months is conclusive for HSV.
