about two weeks ago it started off as a razor burn type bump with hair but i plucked the hair out and this what it looks like today . it has minimal itch and is not very uncomfortable i havent had sex since around the end of april im just so scared and im pretty sure this is herpes PLEASE RESPOND i cant go through with this
possibly. would try to get it swabbed asap. or if it heals before then, abstain from sex and go back in 12-16 weeks for blood test. do you have any other symptoms?
no other symptoms .. no extreme burning or itching it feels like a bump and is only itchy if i touch it . im starting to think it might be syphilis my mother is taking me to get checked this week either thurs or fri so hopefully its NOT herpes im only 17 i hate that something like this had happened to me .
i also have a question for you ... do herpes lesions ALWAYS HURT ? ive had this for about 3 weeks now and it has never been painful at all i can post a pic of how it used to look . i also had a little cluster of bumps on my arm idk if that had anything to do with it. 
i have read of people having outbreaks that are painless which leads to people not knowing they even have the herpes virus because they just brush it off as something else. the bump in the first pic could possibly be an ingrown? but idk cause ingrowns are usually painful/irritating. but herpes can also manifest as a singular/painless bump. the second one is tricky. ive seen so many people say that they have had outbreaks on their arms, chest, legs. so i guess it possibly could be but of course, not completely sure. were you able to get in for testing?
hi could you please respond to my discussion ? I have pictures included im not aure if this is herpes
Yes i went yesterday and i got my throat swabbed , they Took my urine, and drew some blood . As soon as the doctor came into the room, He looked at it and said he looked at it and said and i quote "GIRLLL that looks like an ingrown hair bump" so basically I spent more time waiting on him than him examining me. Anyways they said that if something was wrong they would call. And if they didnt then i didnt have anything or i could call back within 3-5 business days. Fingers crossed
the nurse Also said that the picture I uploaded looked worse than it did in person. I’m not sure if it got better or what but it’s slowly going away. I take 2-3 showers a day and dry the area and apply A&D ointment. she said I could also take a bath in Epsom salts.
Keep us updated. Totally feel you, im young too so this is all very scary. Hope the best for you
i got yall . i know all of this can be scary but all you can do is just hope and pray for the best . and thank you so much<3
