Could this be herpes?

by arsenal06, Jun 01, 2009 10:20PM
Hey there,
I think i am concerned with herpes... i have been looking for a place to get tested but cant find one
i dont know why but i suspect it might be herpes bc about 3 weeks ago, maybe a little more, a had some itching started in the waist area to the right of my crotch area, and now i have many little red bumps that have spread from the original itching area... the bumps itch all day everyday, and a very few of them seem a little crusty... they dont really look like warts, they look more like tiny mosquito bites? is that how warts look like or might this be herpes? most of them are to the right of my crotch area near the waist area, and from there theyre just kinda sparsely spread, and it only itches where theres a bigger one than average or where several of them are all together...nothing really on my penis or scrotum, its just around...can it still be herpes?

thank you, help greatly appreciated

Any local walk-in clinic, Planned Parenthood, or a doctor's office can at least give you the script to get bloodwork done at any lab. As well, a swab/culture can be done too. Clearly you need to have it checked out to know what's going on.
