My name is Jordan and I am an Epidemiology student at the University of Oklahoma. On top of that I am finishing my bachelors in M.D.S. public health and my minor is H.E.S. (health and exercise science). I have had many classes entirely devoted to sexually transmitted diseases, I am starting my independent study focusing on S.T.D distribution based on demographics, and have had a lot of hands on experience at the clinic that I am currently employed. I believe that sexually transmitted disease are a part of life, like any other non-sexually transmitted disease and can be controlled with knowledge. I would love to share this knowledge with anyone that is seeking it and encourage anyone that needs it to just ask, because I would love to help. Since this is a public forum, please refrain from using any personal information of yours or anyone else.

Usually, when you have an STD test, HSV (the herpes virus) antibodies are tested for, because it is such a common STD. Most likely if you were tested for syphilis or gonorrhea they tested for HSV too.
This is most likely sebaceous glands (sweat/oil glands). These are very common and most of the time they go unnoticed, because they will be the same color as the surrounding skin, but can be a white color
