Red extra skin lookin?

I just noticed several pieces of extra skin ( kind of redish colored ) in my pubic hair. It seemed as if it was going away about a month ago and then came back with couple more. I have had cold sores and such, but these "things" in my pubic area doesnt itch, hurt, nor is there any discomfort. I have been with the same girl for about a year and they just showed up, i doubt she has cheated on me. Could it be herpes?

Well these things seem to be going away (getting smaller).. i have not been checked due to the distance i would have to go. Its weird cause there is no pain, itch, nor discomfort i am really scared at the moment.

extra skin isn't herpes.  You need to see your provider to find out what is going on.  Once they actually see what you are describing they can determine what testing, if any, needs done.

Also either of you could have genital herpes or oral herpes and not know it. It doesn't involve cheating.  Have you both been tested for std's and herpes?
