Posted , 4 users are following.
About 14 days ago I had protected sex, maybe no later than 5 days after I started to get really itchy in my genital area and anus area, and also my over all body. I was getting like mosquito bite type of bumps on my thigh, but after I applied alcohol they Were reduced in size tthe next day, almost gone. 2 days after being itchy I found a small red bump on my scrotum, kind of looked like a rash bump.I kept an eye on it for three days n it didn't really change, like no blister or anything. But my scrotum was still itchy, especially at night. I went to go get examine by a doctor n She told me it wasn't anything to worry about. The bump I found. The bump went away like 2 days after completely , but my scrotum still itched. Today i was really itchy around my body, I was getting a lot of rash bumps on my arms, back of neck, thigh, a few small ones on my hand. And when I looked at my scrotum I found another red bump had appear. It looked like the other one I found but just a little bigger. I'm gonna keep close tabs on it, it doesn't really look like a blister, but I'm gonna see if anything
Changes. N if it turns to a blister. Does this sound like herpes? N how long does a bump blister if its herpes? Can herpes cause all these rash related bumps on my body , or is it that I'm having a type of rash reaction, m that's why I'm getting
Bumps on scrotum n body .

Herpes doesn't usually cause a rash anywhere else on ur body. If the bump didn't blister and turn into an ulcer I'd say it's not but I'm not a dr. Best thing to do us have a igg blood test done or if u get a bump again ask the Dr to swab it asap hope all goes well for u

It didn't blister , it pretty much went away in three days. My scrotum only really itches at night but the intensity isn't as bad anymore. I apply anti fungal cream and the itch just goes away, so I was thinking maybe it's
Hygiene related ?

Well the bump just shrunk big time, its barely visible. Where the bump was at there just a small dark spot now. I feel like the only reason I get the bump is when it's itchy and I scratch it, it forms. Right now if a part of my body itches n I scratch it , a bump forms.

That does not sound like herpes at all. Herpes does not cause an all-over body rash. I would see a doctor to find out what's causing the rash. If you're worried, the doc can swab the bumps on your penis for herpes, but it seems most unlikely.

Your symptoms aren't consistent with a herpes infection. You'd have noticeable sores, that are really tender and cause pain when touched. They can itch, but they usually ooze then blister and heal, for a first outbreak especially. After that it's just tingly sensations and milder outbreaks.
