Blisters/Sores

I have never been diagnosed with HSV1 or 2 but I have gotten canker sores for years. I don't know if this is coincidental or what. I believe I bit my my lip and it turned into a canker sore. However during the same time period I think I had a pair of briefs that were too small and caused rubbing at the base of my shaft and caused small blisters. I had them on at work and I do a lot of walking at work and have very dry skin down there so not very much rubbing seems to cause problems.

My groin was feeling very sore for a couple days as well. I assume it wasn't a pulled groin because I was playing softball without much pain. It hurt very bad when I barely touched my groin with my fingers or did anything that touched my groin for that matter. Therefore I think it could have been swollen lymph nodes but I couldn't feel any because the area hurt so bad.

Any advice would be appreciated. The truth is better than the unknown I suppose so whatever it is if it's anything can be treated.
Thanks!!!

I was feeling discomfort as if my clothing was rubbing my "junk" for 8 hours straight and it was a small group of water blisters then I was dumb and popped them and they opened and proceeded to scab as normal blisters do.

canker sores are pretty common and aren't contagious. trauma to the lip such as from biting it is a common trigger for them.

blisters in the genital area aren't normal. best thing to do is to be seen monday for a proper exam if they are still there.

have you ever been tested for herpes before?

do you have a regular partner?

I also believe with a self prognosis that I do have Pearly Penile Papules and Fordyce spots, but these are irrelevant I believe to this conversation
