If someone has the time to look at this and tell me what you think it is, can it be herpes? I would appriciate if someone could answer and give opinions, thanks a lot.

Here is a picture, those tiny shiny dots.

    Hi there,

    How long has this been there? I'm a female, so there may be a difference there already, but it does not look like anything I have experienced. Possibly very early stages of an outbreak?

      Herpes lesions go through different stages and usually clear by 3 weeks during a first outbreak and by 2 weeks during recurrences. Since your shiny bumps have not changed at all and are still there at 4+ weeks, it is pretty safe to say they're not due to herpes. Still get them looked at to rule out HPV.

    Hard to say. Keep an eye on them and see how they progress. In the meantime, you could see about getting them looked at and swabbed. Better to do that sooner rather than later if by viral culture.

      Thank you for your time, and yes i will definitely go check as soon as i can, there is just one problem, that im in such situation, that right now there is no chance that i can go and check, but as soon as i can i will totally do it. 

      Thank you a lot once again.

    Do you have any other symptoms or sensations, any recent exposure to cause you concern?
