Also, I forgot to mention. I HAVE had warts on my feet once thanks to a rusty nail. I think that can make you prone to HPV-1, but I'm not sure.
I have a new progressive image

hahaha. If only it were that easy. In order to do that, there must be a doctor in the area accepting new patients (which there aren't. I've looked). To do a one-time deal to another doctor, you need a referral from your primary.
I think it's impossible that this is any kind of std.
I do believe that it's important to see your doctor. It's probably some kind of skin irritation / allergy (maybe to washing powder combined w/ sweating ).
Your doctor will not judge you: but if you're worried, then why not see a different doctor.

surface as in indirect contact with another person via toilet seat or something. I've never been close enough to another person. I seem to be the only person in the world who has never had contact with another person. So none means none. Nothing more than a hug or handshake.
The discolorations are permanent. They're always there. However, every so often some of them swell and itch and/or hurt. I'm trying to see if an STD is even plausable at this point because the doc isn't going to want to see me, especially if I've had no sexual contact of any kind. They'll think I'm lying. Has anyone heard of any indirect STDs or some passed genetically that are similar to what I have? I have yet to find anything close.
How long do these oubreaks last?
You say they could be surface transmitted. What exactly does this mean? Even if you haven't had sex, petting or dry-humping which invloves skin-to-skin contact is risky with regard to herpes, hpv and syphillis.
If your doctor doesn't want to see you then why not visit a clinic next time you get an outbreak?
