Is this herpes??? (link to pic)

About a week or two ago I spotted a bump above my groin area. I thought it was an ingrown hair (i get a lot of them) or a shaving bump at first, but now there are more showing up, but not necessarily right next to an old one. I have looked at pictures of herpes, but they dont seem to match up to my sypmtoms.

They do not itch, or ooze or anything like that. But they seem to be multiplying


Here is a picture, there are no "parts" showing so you need not worry

it was not until tonight shaving that I discovered how many there actually were, there's probably about 6-8 of them. Im going to the doctors ASAP, but what can I expect to hear? I pray its nothing major.

I did also try to pop one by poking a needle in one; they seem to be hard, and have blood inside, no puss.


Thanks for any help you can give me!

we don't look at pictures even if there aren't any naughty bits in it.  this is explained in our read before posting post.  


the best thing to do is to go and be seen. these could be many things but if they are in the pubic hair and you shave, odds are that it's a folliculitis or something. You'd need a proper evaluation to find out what it is.

Sorry grace, I just read the rules and I do apologize for breaking them. Im new here and I dont know if I can edit my post to take the link out or not.

I did find this in the other forum...

Same symptoms I have, so i believe its molluscum contagiosum...

Hopefully it is this. Calling the doctor FIRST thing tomorrow.


Is it possible to get herpes on the upper portion of the genitals? Like the lower stomach region?
