non-itchy sore on butt..
ok so i have a painful sore on my buttocks that has been there for a while now. there has been no itchiness or tingle. it looks like a large pimple..rather nervous please help! it's in a spot that touches the other cheek, but there is no sore there. just the one...is it herpes? or an inflamed hair follicle?
if this has been there more than a week, certainly go and be seen and get it looked at. many things can be going on.
stop back and let us know how your appointment went :)

thanks!! i feel a lot better...i did a lot of research online about it and it doesnt seem like herpes to me either...but still checking to be safe!
It doesn't sound like Herpes. Herpes doesn't itch. It could be a rash or bacterial infection. Don't scratch and go see your doctor.
no way to know. we don`t diagnose anyone through this forum, sorry!
be seen by a doctor, specially a dermatologist. odds are this is not herpes going on, pimples (folliculitis) happen very frequently in the buttock. you would expect blisters/vesicles in a herpetic sore, and a very itchy sore.
no reason to believe this is herpes, but be seen by a doctor.
