I had protected sex two weeks ago with someone I would consider high risk. at first had aching testicles now swollen lymph nodes and this sore on the bottom of my penis. Any input I would appreciate. File size is too big
no photo available
It keeps saying file too big when I try to upload from my phone
is it itchy or painful?
what do you mean by high risks?
she was an escort and although she said she hasn’t got anything I highly doubt that. Sore isn’t massively painful or itchy but I remember scratching myself down there quite vigorously one night and I then looked down and had given myself this open sore which is now wet to the touch and stings when I touch it. Worth mentioning I wasn’t fully erect during the whole encounter and i think this is what caused the transfer. praying to god it’s just from where I’ve overscratched my self but the painful lymph nodes in my groin and the sore together suggest herpes.
Yes,it’s herps.please consult your doctor fast.
I have a full screening again on Wednesday. I kinda knew it was herpes already. lifes about to fall apart for me but i just have to deal with it now.
hopefully it is isnt.. but if it is herpes just please educate yourself! promiscuity doesnt mean someone does or doesnt have a sti/std!
personally i was in a relationship when my ex gave it to me! i didnt consider myself high risk or even now i am not dirty! im sure if its something that you do have you wont like these terms to describe yourself!
wether ou were fully erect or not doesnt mean anything.. herpes happens just with skin to skin contact!
could be something fungal which has caused the itch or a irritant to the skin! hopefully you get your answers soon!
also life will not fall apart! herpes isnt worth the worry or stress it gives most people! the only thing that may change in your life now is disclosure and antivirals! your still you regardless! in the grand scheme of terrible things in the world, herpes is just an inconvienece!
