Hey Angel. First of all, nothing about this question is gross This could be so many things from a simple rash caused by irritation from the condom you used (and many other simple, fixable things) to herpes. Don't get scared or freak yourself out, because I'm not saying that's what it is b/c it could be so many different things. What do they look like? If they itch you could also have a yeast infection and from you scratching "down there" you could've given yourself a rash. If your old enough to go to a gyno by yourself, I would. If you are still living with parents and you know they will be angry, get a friend to take you to Planned Parenthood and get an exam there. It's confidential and they won't call your parents or anything. Stay away from pictures and everything online (trust me, that will just freak you out even more). Educate yourself, but just because you share a symptom with herpes or any other STD or disease does not mean that you have itchy, red bumps because of herpes or any other STD (hope that made sense, lol). Set up an appt., go to it, and until you do go to it, try and act as if nothing is wrong. And also, remember that everything will be O.K., no matter what the outcome. Hope this helps and take care!
