Any advice is welcome
I've seen 3 Doc's in 2 years and they have all told me different things. First off, one Doc said I had HSV2..but I've never had a fever, no blistering on my penis, no discharge, and no sore groin. I have at times seen where my penis becomes red and swollen, and then lesions do appear. Usually after intercourse, basketball or working out/running. About a year ago, after having protected sex with someone I knew, two hours afterward my penis on the middle left hand side became swollen and red and lesions formed within 6 hours. Also, about 3 years ago, after being with my g/f, the next day I did notice two bumps on my penis head to the right of the meatus. No puss, just bumps that almost looked like welts. It seems the Doc's are too easy to dismiss this as Herpes because it's so common, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks you.
Yes, that was my question..:) Thanks for your response, I appreciate it. I will get the test done soon.
What's your question?? If you have HSV2? It sounds like it, or HSV1 genitally. To be sure, get a type-specific IgG herpes blood test such as HerpeSelect.
