Herpes on buttocks

[nimbus222]

I am a male who had one encounter with a female 4 weeks ago.  I wore a condom. It was a short encounter no kissing no oral no forplay etc.  2 weeks after i got flu like symptoms with a dry cough fever of 101 and congestion in the nose (for one day)   I had a pimple on the bottom of my butt that hurt I put some oxy 10 on it and the pain went away.  A few days later i took a picture of it and it was there, painless and had a white dot in the middle with dry skin around the oiutside.  It eventually went away.  A week after that (3 weeks) i got a red spot slightly raised on my hip wihich hsd tranluscent top with a brown dot in the middle it did not hurt  I picjked at it and it is scebbed but never hurt, one little tiny spec of blood no fluid i have been obsessive thinking  ave herpes

can someone have an itial outbreak on the buttocks area?   I read Dr HHH and he said initials usually happen on the genitals itself   Please help/

it was looked at via photo by a MD because it healed on my butt the doc said it looked like a boil and the std clinic the week previous looked at the semi healed area and said that does not look like a herpes.


Is this one time encounter put me at risk?  Dr HHH insists initials are at site of infetion and recurrents can be anywhere

have you been seen and had this looked at yet?  

yes, you can have your initial ob on the buttocks - they can occur anywhere.  

your flu like symptoms sound like a viral upper respirator infection, not the flu like symptoms we refer to with herpes.

since it was a protected encounter, if you are concerned, seek out syphilis testing after 6 weeks post encounter and herpes igg blood testing after 3 months. should you get a return of symptoms anywhere, be seen promptly for an exam and no picking at them!
