Red lumps in pubic area
hello, i am not entirely sure wht it is but at first it just felt lyk my pubic region was burning up when i would touch ot, similar to sunburn before it devolops. but then at the end of my pubic hair a quite large clump of red bumps have appeared, they dont itch but do sting especially if pressure is put on them or i move my leg about. i havr had unprptected sex before and i also shave my pubic hair could this have an effect? thanks
Hello again,
With the number of Sex partners, protected or not, you need to be rescreened. Even people who only have a few sex partners will also need to be screened atleast once a year. With Herpes, symptoms would more than likely occur anywhere between 2 to 20 days after infection and some symptoms of herpes are a burning sensation, fluid-filled vesicles that rupture and form painful ulcers and also painful urination. These sores would heal in a few days. In your case, if you had just shaved that region, there's a good chance that you could have inflamed that tissue. You could also have something like an ingrown hair. Just wait a few days and if the symptoms worsen or more symptoms appear then go see your doctor.

Could be dude.. You could be getting a boil there who knows... I would see a Dr just to verify or to rule things out Goodluck...
also in one blotch it feels lk there is a lump ubder the skin, wud this also be a aspect of ingrown hair?
Sounds like folliculitis to me that can happen when you shave the pubic hairs..... It can burn and get real irritated.. Again I am no Dr but if it dosent clear up get cked... And always remember be safe when having sex...
thanks for the advice, on the symptoms i have posted is it a sign of any std though? thanks
I would say with that many partners if you are unprotected its time to retest....
thanks for response, erm id have 2 say last time i had se was a couple of months ago been std tested once but i have had around 14 more partners since then
Hello,
First off, take a deep breath and try to relax. How long ago has it been since the sexual activty? Also what is your STD history, if you have any?
