Hi,
I'm not sure where this post should exactly go, but I figured I'd put it in the "General" Section.
I went tanning for 30 minutes last week and it was the first time in awhile. I got some color, but my butt got a red color, figuring it was burnt.
A couple days after I went tanning, I had sex with a guy*anal*(it was protected sex) and i felt this black little beads on my butt, i just brushed it off thinking nothing of it.
Just 2 days ago, I looked at my backside and found these red dots on the upper left side of my butt. There not pop-able i tried it already. Does anyone know what the dots are from? Could it be from a tanning rash, or getting a rash from sex? Any help would be great. Thanks!

It does sound like a rash of some sort.... You should really probably go see your doctor. If it is from tanning OR from sex, it's not normal to get a rash from either. If it was me I'd make a doctor appt. ASAP. Good luck and let us know what happens!!! I'll be interested to know what it ends up being from ,especially since I use tanning beds as well!

depending on just how well the tanning place actually cleans their beds you could have possibly picked up any number of things.It is really really important to see your doc and tell him/her what you just mentioned here.your doc may want to do some specific type of blood tests among other things.but given the onset of symptoms,I am willing to bet that the hygiene of the tanning bed was not up to par.let us know jut what you find out.Good luck,FB

UPDATE ON RASH: The Rash is totally gone. I just got back from FLorida last night, was down there for 5 days. I checked on my butt to see if the rash was still there and it slowly just disappeared. I never went to the Drs, I know I probably should have, but I'm glad that its all gone!!
