Rashes

Along with some other early signs of ARS symptoms that occurred 3-4 days after my exposure I had a rash on my scrotum which lasted for several months that would come and go and would usually be better in the mornings and then get worse throughout the day. The rash which was mostly just red and covered my entire scrotum and the area between my scrotum and anus did not itch, but burned sometimes.

The rash went away for a few weeks and now 3 months after my expsure is back. It starts out as just some red spots on my scrotum and then seems to get worse as I examine it. Also there is some anal irritation that has come with this.

Does this rash sound anything like symptoms that would be occurring with primary HIV infection? If not, any idea what it could be?

Thanks for your help it truly does make a difference.

See a doctor. You can not be diagnosed over the internet.

No it does not sound like ARS or primary HIV infection.
