HSV-1 and genital herpes
I'm a 22 year old female who is single and has had a few sexual partners in the past. I always say that I'm clean which leads to the other party agreeing that they are as well. I went for a Pap smear as well as an STD check this past friday and came out clean. But this past week I thought I had a pimple beneath my lip, so I popped it and moved on with my life. The pimple stung worse than usual, but I assumed it was because it was lining the bottom of my lip. The next day the pimple crusted over

Hey!
It could be an infected pimple.
Using condoms prevents transmission of STDs.
