6 months ago i had these red spots all over my penis shaft which appeared after masturbating, they fade away after 2 hours but since then i have seen these red spots reoccuring on the shaft, yesterday one of these red spots apeared, they are not itchy or painful. What could this possibly be? i did the igg test 7 months after my exposure and it came back both negative for hsv1 and hsv2, i also had one sore which i believe was caused by an abrasion from my tight underwear 8 months ago, it can be seen in the last pic, this was swabbed and also came back with a negative result, could the igg test i did be wrong?

      could be but doesnt typically look like it.... try to test after at least 4 months after you got these bumps (when ur body had the time to create antibodies)
