DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A SMALL HERPES OUTBREAK I'M VERY SCARED
Posted , 3 users are following.
here's the deal. had unprotected oral and protected vaginal sex about 6 weeks ago. a few days after I got a rash on my scrotum and penis tip. it's just red itchy skin, no blisters or anything. I still have this rash to this day. got tested for all stds 5 weeks ago and was negative for everything. so I considered my rash just to be some sort of skin condition and I moved on with my life.
but this week I have developed a small red mark/sore on the bottom of my penis shaft and I'm worried that it's herpes. it's not an ingrown hair or anything and hasn't healed in a week. it doesn't really tingle but I can sort of feel that it's there. also my hands have been getting pins and needles and tingly this week if that means anything

I thought fluid came out of herpes blisters, thus the reason for the swab test. I've never had a pimple on my penis.

clear fluid will come out of herpes, pus like white pus etc or blood will come out of a pimple, like a face pimple. is this bump sore to touch? usually herpes would come in clusters and would be painful and like a 'blister' and then break into a sore and then scab over in a fairly prompt stage series. did the std test 5 weeks ago cover herpes? and have u had unprotected sex since?

you can get pimples for many reasons, could be hot weather + sweating etc. the picture isnt very good quality so i cant really see but get it checked out if you are worried, although it doesnt scream herpes to me especially if white pus and or blood is comin out

luckily it turned out to be a nasty ingrown hair. it's strange I've never gotten one on my actual penis before. I dug into the sore with a pin today and pulled out a long hair. still have a concerning rash though 😕

rash is less likely to be herpes, might be a yeast infection
