NuvaRing... oops

So.. a while back it was my bf's idea that I go on bc. We both didn't care for condoms too much, but being that he's 21 and I'm 20... having a baby is out of the question. So looked around a lil bit and decided against any kind of pill.. I don't have a good enough memory to take it everyday let alone around the same time everyday. It was either the patch or the ring.. needless to say I didn't really want a square patch on me all the time so I chose the ring. I've been using it since January w/ all seeming to go pretty well. Not too many side effects. Just the other day I went over to bf's house and as he walks in the room he was like 'I thing I might have a small problem w/ ur ring.' I was kinda puzzled and wasn't sure what he was talking about at first. So he showed me what he was talking about. On the left (almost underside) of his penis was a red area.. kinda like a blistery (altho not water filled) type red sore. It was about the size of 1/2 a dime or a lil bigger. I felt bad at first and asked if that was the first time it happened. He said he noticed little almost scratch type areas kinda like that before but nothing quite so big. I thought about it for a second and joked that he's probably glad it's my ring free week then. He was like yeah, that way I can recover. I did tell him that I can take it out for a couple hours at a time and he said that he thinks we might be doing that from now on.. unless we forget or can't for somet reason.
Just thought I'd let you know, maybe see if any of you had had that problem. I do feel bad about it, but he noticed it before and never said a thing... Oops!! 0:-)
