It had green stuff floating in it.. I guess it had bacteria. How can I prevent infection?


Answers:

The actual peeing won't affect you. Your penis/vagina could get infected if the lake water had bacteria though.

Edit: The green stuff is probably algae, which is perfectly fine. If it becomes itchy or red or inflamed, take it to a doctor. To prevent from infection, just make sure to shower every day, clean it off, and wash down there with soap. I doubt ou have much to worry about. =)
