Herpes Anxiety

Ok..well i will start from the begining everything started from the one night I had sex with my g/f and she is very tiny down there and i got liek a friction burn. So i used some zinc oxide to help with the irritation. It was shortly after that where I had some bumps on my inner thighs they were very dried out looking but so i talked to some friends and they thought i had a male yeast infection so i bought some canestan and with-in dyas of using it it started to clear up. It was then shortly after that A couple bumps occured on the shaft of the penis, now they had occured after times of masturbation where the lubricant wore off and there was alot of friction. I am extremely worried about contarcting anything and i have been tested yearly and after each relationship and i have came back negative each time. this has only occured with in the past couple months and the girl i am sleeping with was tested back in october and was negative. I also shave down there. I am trying to get an idea of possiblities. PLease help.

Hey Russ,
If I were you I'd get a type specific IGG blood test as soon as possible (you'll probably have to pay for it - about $150). Or if your bumps are still present, get to a doctor fast so he can take a sample to determine if it's herpes (that should be free at the Department of Health or Planned Parenthood).  It's good to know your status so other people in your life aren't put in danger. Take every other test possible as well.  Some other STDs can be mistaken for herpes.  Hopefully it's nothing.  Use condoms!
