Brief Answer:
Infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

This wound for both of you is probably due to the rough sex you had. This is not a STD.

Your wound has got infected and hence burns. This should heal in next 2 weeks.

I don't see any reason to worry. Wash the wound morning and evening with soap and water. Keep it dry.

You can consider starting antibiotics if don't see improvement in another week.Avoid sex for next 15 days.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards

Hi,

Washing with soap and warm water for couple of days should help.

Sit in a small tub of warm water, salt and antiseptic for 10 minutes in morning and evening to reduce inflammation.

This will help with pain and swelling

I have recently seen today about 3 other bumps they are very small and don't hurt is that also from the bacteria
Also it does not itch anymore unless I sweat and it is easier for me to sit down and walk since I've taken the hot baths, but now it burns every time I pee...burning sensation is similar to a uti

Brief Answer:
UTI possible

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Good to know symptoms are reducing. This could be due to UTI.

You should drink more water, stay well hydrated. If still no relief in burning urination, please give urine sample for culture and sensitivity analysis. You can start an antibiotic after the urine report based on the sensitivity result.
