Has anyone experienced this?

I have been diagnosed with HSV-2 for about 2 years now. For the last 6-7 months I have seen this on my thigh on and off. Is this herpes on my thigh or boils? It comes and goes every now and again and is always in the same spot. They hurt a little..only when I pop them. What do you think?

Thanks

If you read our posting tips you'll see that we don't want pictures posted here on the forum - no matter what body part they are of. We can't diagnose here.

You need to go and be seen to find out what is going on. That is an area where herpes lesions can occur but you'll need a proper evaluation and testing done on them to find out what is going on for sure.
