Red scrotum

Dear Doc,

I had protected sex with two commercial sex workers around 7 and 10 weeks ago. In the second encounter, I think my condom burst as I could feel slight amount of rubbery sticky substance on my penis and I had to wash it off.

Almost two weeks ago, I developed redness of my scrotum along with prominent hair follicles and slight amount of burning sensation in my arm pits. I showed my scrotum to a GP who said it was eczema and prescribed an anti-fungal steroid based cream. Despite using this cream, the redness is still intact though there is no itching but I do get slight burning sensation on my scrotum occasionally. During the last one week, i have also developed burning sensation on my inner thighs though there is no visible sign. In the last one week, I have also developed really tiny white spots on my lower lip which become visible if I stretch my lips.

Could this be herpes or any other STD. I am really worried ... Please let me know what to do as I do not know what to do

best regards

Those symptoms aren't associated with stds, and since you've gotten a diagnosis of eczema, I would go with that.  If you are still having symptoms, follow up with your doc.
