    can anyone give me their thoughts? the bumps have already gone away in this area on the back of my butt - theyve dried and now i have dry skin in that area.

    they dont look like the HSV that i just got visially diagnosed with. I am waiting for my swab results but my outbreak is so bad im 100% sure i have it. so imo if those heal quickly and dont hurt or seem like blisters that burst youre fine. go to a dr to be sure for peace of mind tho!

      Thanks for your reply. I don't think it is either - just very odd. They went away quick within 5 days - now there is nothing there. I think it had to do with being in a very hot climate and friction from wearing shorts? I'm sorry to hear that you have it. Hopefully the meds will kick in quick!
