I had protected sex and unprotected oral (give/receive) with a woman I met. one time encounter, after 8 weeks did 10 test std panel everything negative.

i also noticed a bald patch in my beard so did another syphilis test at 10 week mark also negative.

around 12-13 week mark I had pain in my armpit and then in groin. No other visible symptoms and suddenly i notice these scars on groin crease both sides.

They never had sores, never had any crusting just scars. Both sides of the groin.

      this can be for many reasons "loosing weight,gaining weight, chaffing etc. i have this same thing on my thighs and it came from my thighs rubbing too much when i walk, i read online that herpes does not cause scarring at all, so take a deep breathe and relax you're fine

      Thank you for your reply. I just got the results back for a bunch of tests that were done two days ago making it 15 weeks since potential exposure.

      hsv igg negative

      hsv dna real time negative

      hiv rna and 4th gen negative

      syphilis RPR negative

      I hope now I can put this behind me and relax and focus on not being an idiot again.
