Immediate Help Needed Please Posted: 11-14-05 19:00pm
I think I may have herpes, but i've only
had 1 sexual partner in the past 5
months.. Would I have been able to
contract this b4 the last 5 months or
would the symptoms have shown up b4 that?
I guess basically, is it possible I
wouldnt have had any signs of this for 5
months and then the 1st signs show up now?

The other thing is, i'm not positive it's
herpes... It looks more like a rash with
some bumps in there, it's on the shaft
where no hair grows, and I can't tell if
some of the bumps are like the normal ones
that are there or not.... It itches
really bad sometimes... Non seem to be
filled with any puss or anything, could it
just be raw? Or something like that?
What else could this be? Thanks for
anyone who can help

it's possible, but not really probable.

could be just raw or dry skin, or it could
be a form of jock itch. Have you been
tested for herpes?

Anytime you are unsure as to your std
status, including hiv. Simply go get
tested. If there is a problem, treatment
is available. If there's not a problem..
You get rid of a lot of anxiety. It's
a win-win situation. Best of luck!

No I havent.... Would red bumps be there
if it was just jock itch? And would the
bumps be filled with puss?

^now those sound like they might be
ingrown hairs. But better to be safe
than sorry; you might want to go get
tested.

I doubt its herpes, I get a patch of those
from time to time.
