So for a while now i ve noticed red bumps around the top part of my shaft and the side of the head of my penis. They have been there for approximately 4 months and they seem to get less red until i have sexual intercorse or i masterbate.
I dont feel any of the symptoms of herpes that ive read of, but the bumps are still there and they are rather a depressing sight.
The bumps or rather spots on my head are no bigger than 1 millimeter.
The bumps on my shaft after no bigger than 2-3 millimeters and are not very prominent.
At this point im just really worried that its somthing worse than herpes. Please help!
post a pic if you have. Sounds like balanitis. Herpes doesn't stay in the same spot 4 months straight. It comes and goes. U should get tested for herpes just in case though
here are what they look like
Yea might be a bad case of balanitis. Get them swabbed asap. U say it gets worse when u have sex or masturbate. Does it clear up completely when u dont?
Kinda, my hygiene could use some work but for like a week i tried being really clean and carfull. And i substatained from masterbation and it seemed to het better but i have a bad habbit of not being able to go long without masterbating.
A lot of people cant go long without it lol but even a week of good hygiene isn't going to be the answer. U might need some treatment. Pills and or topical cream. Go to the doc and get it swabbed. Thats important. Dont wait too long otherwise u might never know what it really is
The problem is, is that i dont have money nor transportation to a doctor. Im living with my parents still and my dad would rather die than go to the doctor because he is a redneck.
Not herpes, as herpes does not remain unchanged like that for so long. Could be a harmless skin issue or else genital warts or molluscum, etc., but only a doctor can diagnose that after examination or testing.
Are you doing okay ? My boyfriend has the same issue right now. We don't know what to do. He's been applying plain yogurt. So idk what it could be. Any ideas ?
