std?

[kemp24]

about a year ago i got a break out of red dots on my penis and scrotum, about 3 weeks after having unprotected sex, i was tested for herpes and came back negative. it cleared up after a few weeks but ever since ive had the red dots come and go on my thighs and butt, ive been back to the doctor twice and been told it may be scabbies but ive treated myself for it 4 times now and had no success. recently ive had a couple dots come back on my penis dont wanna go back to the doctor and be told its scabbies again, any advice.

they are small red lumps mainly on thighs, bum and groin. they seem to come to a head and some can been popped and give a small amount of white discharge, then turn into scabs and take ages to heal. recently i have started to get them on my back also. I also get an ocasional sharp tingly feeling in my penis usualy after masturbation or sex?
