Is this GH?

Posted , 6 users are following.

Ive posted here before but looking for more opinions. This spot started in June and I have gotten the exact same spots every other months since then. They are near my anus where I suffer from very bad hemorroids. I do have HSV 1 of the mouth, have my entire life and im 41.

Some have said it looks like pimples. I had a anuual in February and tested negative for STD's but I did not test for GH because I have never had any reason to test. Help!image

      I've posted on this forum before and others have said it looked like pimples, then I've bad more people say it didn't look like it. I've read that the sores dont scar and these have left scars.

      One does look like an ingrown hair (the one with a small hair poking out) but the others do appear to be blisters

      Chances are high that it is HSV-1 of the genitals, especially if you and your partner both have HSV-1.
