I’ve had this rash that comes and goes since July. I’ve talked to the girl i had sexy with before this and she has no signs and neither does her partner. i have a gf now and we've had sex in between these little rashes and she is FINE!! no symptoms at all! ive seen 5 doctors and they’ve all said it was herpes and its fungal or a skin disorder. but im worried because it comes backimage

    Hi. Has the rash always looked like that? I thought herpes and/or thrush would be more prominent than what is shown in the picture.

    I wonder if what you have was caused by micro cuts or loose skin caused by some friction or irritant which continues - perhaps by clothing or products used to clean clothes.

    Have you been to an STI clinic for testing? Normal GP/Doctors may only observe and not be specialised in this field so I would go for an STI test in any case.

    Hope this helps.

      im sorry i made a typo, ive been to several doctors and they said it wasnt herpes... the first time i got a rash in this area i went to the doctor and he said it looked like herpes until he checked my blood and said it wasnt because of something with my wbc . ive been tested for stds almost everytime i go and they tell me the same thing. thats its fungal or some skin disorder, ive had unprotected sex with my gf alot in between these rashes and she is fine so im very confused
