I went to the waterslides and i was on my period. i put a tampon in my pocket and i went down the slides. i forgot about the tampon but when i realized i needed to change it. i went to the bathroom to use it. the tampon was sealed in its packet but i opened it and the tampon was kind of wet. i know i wasnt suppose to use it but i had to.. so i did anyways. maybe 2hours later we were driving home and it started to kind of irritate me. but i wasnt able to change it for a few hours. i ignored the irritation and figured it would go away. the next day i went to check and i have had really small bumps around one sections of my vagina. the following day it got worse and i looked on the inside, and there were bigger bumps. they dont bother me, besides that they kind of itch a little every now and then. it doesnt burn when i pee but there is some discharge and it kind of smells. the bumps arent really yellow but there a darker pink, but on the inside i saw a little something that looked kinda like there were lighter. I'm scared also because ive had sex and they say it takes a few weeks before a breakout, and same with the yeast infection so i dont know whether this was already coming or if it was the wet tampon. my mom hasnt seen it but assumes its just a yeast infection.i dont know whether all yeast infections look yellow or white or maybe theres different types of looks to it. i looked at images of herpes and other STD's and my problem isnt really Beat Red or look like bad blisters. Their more of just bumps or a reallllllly bad irritation but im still scared because this has never happened to me. i plan on going to check with a doctor after the 7th day because im using yeast infection treatment. nothing like this has ever happened to me and im still a young teen.. I Need help!

Since you are sexually active and this rash is causing you discomfort you should be seen by a physician.



If it was a yeast infection it would be incredibly itchy. The discharge would be whitish and much heavier than your normal discharge.



Some yeasts do cause a rash but it is usually not a rash that prompts treatment of yeast infections, it is the itching.



Some STDs that cause bumps are

Herpes

Syphilis

HPV (Genital Warts)



It is quite possible you have a yeast infection, however you should be seen by a physician and you should make sure that any future sexual activity is "safe". Please always use a condom.

Hello, I'm on the second week and seeing definite improvement on my yeast infection symptoms:

Note that: If the yeast infection doesn't respond to over the counter treatment, prescription medication will likely be necessary. Similarly, if the symptoms return after two months of being treated, you should contact the doctor for professional treatment rather than resorting again to home treatment.

If this is the first time you have experienced a yeast infection, you should schedule an appointment to have the condition treated by a doctor instead of resorting to home treatment

I got diagnosed with the herpes simplex virus (type 2) about 5 years back, when I was still in college and had a mindless one-night stand. I know lots of girls will say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a huge mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the implications for my entire life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date men again. In the end, who wants to go out with a girl who has sores around her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/Ar355 everything got better.



Not only was I able to eliminate all remnants of the herpes simplex virus from my body in less than three weeks, but I was also able to begin dating once more. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so fortunate to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a busy cafe, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!!! This program provided the chance to be happy and experience true love. Now I want to help you too by sharing this with the whole World.

It is possible that you have a bacterial infection.A yeast infection is a viral infection.A bacterial infection is caused by something wet like a bathing suit or from being in a hot tub or a pool.So if the tampon was wet it could have caused you to get a bacterial infection.Also you were in the water.
