Does this look like HSV or any form of genital herpes?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I recently had sexual intercourse with a partner. 1 week later I got a small pimple (looked like) under on the backside of my penis shaft. i have severe OCD when i comes to contracting an STD. I always think I have something. this is just alarming since i did stop sex with this partner because of a red mark below her vagina. she allowed me to take a picture. i get tested often but worry this wont show yet since recent exposure. Have you seen herpes like this? second photo is hers ans why i stopped intercourse. imageimage

    so sorry to say that hers does resemble herpes. What has shown up on you given the time frame from when you had sex could also be and it looks like she was having an outbreak at the time you had sex so this is likely if hers is herpes. Your best bet is to get this checked out

    dont try to pop -- you can spread bacterka / infection I would have a doctor do a swab of the sore -- will be accurate and give you peace of mind (possibly too soon to show in bloodwork).

    neither yours nor hers look like classic herpes. Theres a chance you guys are in the clear. Its weird that it happened at the same time though. I wouldnt worry too much but its not a bad idea to go have it looked at
