Do I have genital herpes

I have had flu-like symptoms for 5 days now, practically bed-ridden. My wasteline also has more red bumps and it slightly itches. My shaft and head are completely blister/bump free. I've been freaking out the past two weeks because of the bumps that are in the attached images. Please help!

    I would like to add that I've had unprotected sex one time in the past month and protected another time.

    I think you should see a doctor. But don't worry. It might just be shave bumps.

    Are the bumps painful? Within a day or 2 they should fill with fluid if it is herpes. Go and get a swab from your gp

    Herpes can look like that sometimes, so you should see a doctor, in order to rule it out.

    Hey Mike,

    this looks like  a STD called Molluscum Contagiousm. I would still confirm it with a professional  though.

    Hi mikeffxv,

    I have something identical (showed in pics and flu like symptoms). Did you get any more info about it? Any more diagnosis? Are the bumps still there? 

    Any info would be greatly appreciated,

    Andy
