wel i haven't gone because i thought it had cleared up, plus was too late to swab or see anythingm, but then i noticed 2 more with alot of itching , i have been refered to a urologist incase of prostratitis,
yeah its been a week, but its almost on and off.but very uncomfortable burning sensation.
i wil go dr because its also affecting other areas like my thighs, believe heat is making it worse too.
you think it could be the herps causing this as ive never had rashed like these before, its all hapened after sex with that girl? will be going on tuesday to drs.
it's been a week and you didn't go to be seen at all to get a proper diagnosis?

hi
i have still got the rash, i got3 of them round flat,circular rashes on my testicles, didnt see the other 2, they dried up, formed dead skin, very itchy, they gone flatter and now the redness is less, but very itchy and itching makes it worse, again does this sound like jock itch? or herpes?
this doesn't sound like herpes. I totally agree that it sounds more like a fungal infection. perhaps give an otc jock itch cream a try since it's the weekend?

hi
the red rash i had has almost disappeared and isn't itchy, it looks slighty like a dark wrinkkle now, i had the chance of a swab yesterday, but time ent against me lol darn easter holiday lol, anyways, im going to have to wait 4 months for a blood test or or if i get another rash will rush to the drs.
Question, can herpes cause constant burning sensation on the penis, because this is what im feeling. Can a typcal flareup als include burning on the penis?
thanks for the reply
i'l have to try tomorrow, i know of a private clinic, will contact them tomorrow to be seen. Hopfully they are open.
its not as red or as itchy, it had been very itchy for a few days without this redness, i think i itched it thats why it went bright red, it seems more of a wrinkled circle in dark red, itchy and burns slightly, i am getting pains and burning sensations in my penis also which i didnt mention.
hopfully its nothing
The blood test will be best if run at 4 months after the sexual encounter (given your location I doubt you will have access to HerpeSelect).
This sounds to me like a fungal infection though. The reason I say that is I had the similar thing going on with the skin peeling and the "watery" look to it. My dermatolgoist told me that was fungal related mostly. The bumps can be from that as well. My suggestion is call around to see if there is another clinic that might be able to see you today so they can swab it.
also since the department is closed, what signs and symptoms should i be looking out for on this rash i have in the meantime? so if it does heal by then atleast i have some piece of mind or suspicion to have a blood test again but later since it has only been 2 months max that i last had sex.
how long should i wait to be re-tested again for blood test?
as my last herpes blood test was far too early.
