These bumps popped up a week ago. They don't hurt and aren't blister like but I don't know what else they can be. I haven't experienced flu like symptoms and went to a doctor who says they don't look like herpes or warts.. but my boyfriend called me and said he has bumps to. What's the chances we have an out break at the same time. His are like mine but on his pubic area and penis andhe doesnt have blisters or flu like synptoms either! Please help

      Go to the desktop site for posting pics. Could it be molluscum? Obviously it's hard to say without seeing, and your doctor should have surely recognised that if it was. What did he suggest it is?

      Could it be heat rash or some kind of fungal/bacterial skin infection? Are there hairs coming out of the bumps? If so, it could be folliculitis (infected hair follicles). Just guessing.
