Four sores/blisters on penis

nh_user_1228476 · January 26, 2019, 10:23pm

I was hoping somebody could help identify what these spots are on and around my penis. I have one on either side of the base, one on the pubic area above the base and one near the head of my penis it started a few days ago and I thought it was just because the hair follicles but then a scab appeared near the head of my penis. Today the scab fell off and seems to have left a sore. Both the scab and now sore were/are sensitive to pain. I will be going to the doctor on Monday but wanted an opinion

Looks like herpes to me, good luck.

Get a swab test.

I had a similar sore at the base of my penis a month ago. Wishing I went and got it swabbed as the “what ifs” running through my head are driving me nuts! I noticed a pimple which I popped which ended up looking like that second photo.

Everybody else is saying herpes but i can’t find a picture that looks like what I have. I will be getting an STD check tomorrow and making an appointment with a dermatologist. I’ll try to come back and update but think you should go to a expert as well

UPDATE: None of the areas look alike right now. First photo hasn’t changed. Second photo is some weird skin tag looking thing now. Third photo, seems to be healing and the one near the head now looks like a whitehead pimple. Not sure what’s happening but will be calling a dermatologist tomorrow and going to a STD check as well

I unfortunately left it too late to get the sore’s swabbed but I’m going to try get a blood test to be sure. Best of luck! Let us know how you go!

Did you end up getting them checked out?

Hi, you have most likely already visited a sexual health clinic and been tested to see if it is a HPV and it’s my guess that you the test has come back negative. With the information you provided and without being able to ask you any questions you should Google Syphilis and’(Genital) Dermatillomania’. I think these are a more likely diagnosis although you should visit your doctor and discuss it further with him/her. Good luck
