Butt Herpes?

Hi all, im just wondering how to differentiate between herpes on the butt and simple butt acne or blocked follicles? I have had painless red bumps on my butt that have come and gone since i was a kid, but always want to know what i should be looking for as red flags for a future possible herpes infection. Please let me know if anyone has any insight thanks.

if you read our read before posting post, you'll see that we ask that you keep all your questions in one post instead of making a new post for each question - thanks!

these are things you've had since you were a kid. you know they aren't herpes related.

typically when you have herpes ob's on the buttocks, they itch quite a bit or hurt and don't feel anything like a regular ole pimple or sweat rash type issue.
