Question:
My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half and have started to become somewhat sexually active. I have noticed that when his penis is hard, there is an area of raised, bumpy skin on the underside of his penis, sort of near the head but a bit lower. It is difficult to explain, but it almost looks wart-like, I was wondering if there is any way he could have genital warts even though he has never been sexually active in any way with anyone else (I have also never been active sexually with anyone else)? Or does being circumsised sometimes leave marks? Is it normal to sometimes have strangely textured spots of skin on the penis? Or should I not be worried about this? I am worried because I have given him oral sex twice, the first time about 2 weeks ago, and a few days ago I noticed a small circular red bump on the inside of my bottom lip near my teeth. I'm not sure if this is just a normal mouth irritation, or if he possibly had an infection that was passed to me orally, like genital warts. Please help, I have been very worried about this, it is causing me a lot of stress.

Hi,
If your boyfriend truly has not been sexually involved with any others, it would be very hard for him to get a Sexually *Transmitted* Disease. Most STD's irritate their host in some way. Make sure you ask your boyfriend if he has had the bumps since he can remember, and if they ever bother him.
Although it is likely that the bumps you are seeing are a normal irregularity in his penis skin, you might want to have him checked out to see what they are and if they can get infected or in anyway be passed on.
If it is nothing, then the bump in your mouth could have been a likely response to your body's anxiety about the bumps and about having sex for the first time, which is a very natural response.Reviewed by: Patricia Fawver Ph.D. in Sexology
