I think I have an infection in my finger. What should I do?

Did my hymen break or do i have some kind of infection?

• Hey everybody, so 4 days ago (Monday) i was with my boyfriend and things happened...He started to finger me but it was hurting which i wasn't sure why but now i think it's because i wasn't wet enough. Also, he has a very big p*nis and he wasn't able to get it in, at one point it almost went it but it was hurting a lot. About 30 minutes later when i got home i checked in my panties and there was spots of a pinkish/red color, almost like blood but it didn't look dark enough to be blood...Also when i looked at my vagina it was REALLY red and it looked like it was swelled up. It was also very sore down there and it was kind of burning. (I am a virgin, or i was...) Two days later (Yesterday) it was much better but i noticed that when i would cough it would kind of hurt down there and also when i looked at my v*gina i put my finger in it to see if it would hurt and then when i took my finger out, i started to bleed...But it wasn't much and it only lasted like 10 seconds. So i first thought that he broke my hymen because of the blood and also when i looked at my v*gina i had like weird pieces of white skin or something that looked like white skin around my v*gina so i thought that it was pieces of my hymen, BUT today i noticed that when i put pressure down there, even just a little bit, or even when i'm just sitting it feels kind of sore and sensitive. Also i have a lot of discharge lately, but its like dried up discharge...Usually when i have discharge its kind of wet in my panties but now it seems to be dried up when i see it. Also i started to feel burning pain, like when you get an UTI, so i started to drink a lot of water and the burning pain went away. But this happens often to me, so maybe this is normal....BUT after i drank the water i had to pee like every 10 min! I went to pee about 5 times! Now it's been about 5 hours since the last time i has burning pain and i kind of feel a burning pain coming back again, but I can barley feel it....I'm really not sure what's going on, when i look in the mirror at my v*gina i can still see my hymen. I see like a ball of skin but there's like a split down the middle of it, kind of like lips...If i just push my finger it goes right through...So my hymen still seems to be there, it's just ripped. So i don't know why it would still be sore? I'm really not sure what's going on, did my hymen break or do i have some kind of infection? *I'm 15 years old! THANKS!

• Answer:

  Your hymen is not a covering inside of your vagina. It is a thin layer of tissue, kind of like a scrunchie surrounding your vaginal cavity-so it can't be "broken". Over time, as you continue to have intercourse, it will get smaller and smaller, eventually going away. When you were penetrated, it just widened a little bit. If you are still experiencing pain or have any trouble urinating, you need to go to your doctor as you may have a UTI.
