HELP Molluscum problems!!

by holster87, Aug 26, 2009 02:50AM
im almost 22 years old
have only had sex with two girlfriends who have been faithful during our relationships
i dont do drugs
am usually very very healthy and active.

for the last few months ive been batteling some red bumps (pimple like) in my pubic region. i can only say i might have gotten them from a razor i used to shave but dont know why it would have had molluscum on it. i went to two different doctors to see if they could help me stay at ease and not freak out because as a male, its VERY VERY freaky and unsettling to have something wrong with your sexual area. the doctors i went to both told me it looks like molluscum and just to let it take its course. i developed the bumps early in the summer and its now late august and they are still there. ive been treating them for the last couple weeks with sysilic acid products used to treat acne and they are showing signs of sucess because a lot of the older bumps are shrinking down. my main concern is that i have HIV or something concerning because ive now noticed a bump on my left eyelid and some small bumps on my cheak. im not 100% positive its molluscum but it sure scares me because everything i read about molluscum seems to have a lot to say about the heightened possibility of having HIV or other seious problems.

my sexual activity is limited to two people i had long lasting wonderfull relationships with but i know its possible to contract HIV by other means. i dont do drugs or practise a wreckless behavior. having acne on my face is not usual and being almost 22 i already went through that pimple crazy faze back in jr high. im particularly worried that i have something serious because of the bumps on my face.

im not so scared of the molluscum but i am scared of having something very serious. im young and concerned.

is HIV that big of a deal just because i probably have molluscum on my eye?

thanks for any help
michael
