im scared whats wrong with me?

Hello i have been having some strange things happening to me lately.  a few weeks ago i had pnemonia or at least what i thought was pnemonia and was prescribed azithromisin. that got better but i still felt ache after that.  the past few weeks i developed a rash on my scrotom and buttocks that kinda burned when i touched it, its gone now and yesterday i got a sore at the top of my butt crack right on the line it doesnt bother me much but i noticed it i think ive had that before but it goes away. i read on the internet that that can happen to hairy guys like me who sweat a lot down there .  today i noticed like a pimple on my hip/thigh so im worried that it could be herpes though i havent been sexually active for years.  ive been getting slight headaches, i have a slight pain on my lower rightside of my back that hurts if i press it in like a bruise and now i havepain in my upper back and a very slight mild pain in my neck.  all throughout this ive had these ache flu symptoms no fever though and i seem to have mild stomach pain sometimes with a change in bowel movements.  my legs seem to feel a little weak at times but i cant tell if its because ive been soo worried about all of this and maybe thats in my head.  all this started id say about a month ago.  im really scared and if you have any advice it would be appreciated.

Yes, my advice is to discuss all these concerns with your doctor, because I am confident that all these things don't add up and represent nothing more than minor skin changes and aches plus a lot of anxiety.  The pimple on the thigh does not sound anything like herpes.  After you get over something like pneumonia, you can feel a bit rundown for a while, with various aches and pains, but the skin changes you describe don't sound like anything at all, much less add up to anything serious.  Check with your doctor.  See a dermatologist if necessary.  Then recuperate and relax.

Best.

Dr. the pimple on the thigh was about a dime in size and i popped it today and a little bit of blood and puss came out.  it also hurts ifi touch it but its not an open sore.  i also feel shaky and i think i feel my lymph node in the right side of my groin hurting a little.  do these extra symptoms change anything in your opinion.  i also have had pimples on my but ive ive always had those because i sweat a lot down there.  do you think this could get better on its own possibly?
