follicitis,herpes, or wars i have no clue worried bad

Hi i have been to the dermatologist and she said its follicitis so she gave me a cleanser i revisited her and she game me Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg and said it still looks like follicitis but if this doesn't take care of it we will take a sample cause it could be Venereal Warts but i also have 3 blister looking bumps there clear and no itching or fever no symptoms that result to herpes but they are there and bug me there is just little white dots around the base and some on shaft of penis and on the bottom there is the blisters they have subsided a little but i was wondering if this could also be herpes i have had no symptoms for any of these other than the blisters and little white dots that look like pempils and this all started after i shaved one day down there please give me some info on this

thanks justin

so you dont think its genital warts i have gone to the dermotologist and she put me on a cleanser and than i just started taking about 3 days ago Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg the cleaner seemed to help a little but she said come back if it doesnt work so i did and thats when she gave me Doxycycline Hyclate  i mean the blisters are not even raised hardly at all and just almost look like scars but they seem to subside a little but not completely gone how long does it take for the Doxycycline Hyclate to really do its job i got a months worth

Hello,
From the symptoms it looks like irritated hair follicles, but for these flesh colored bumps, I would like to rule out genital warts.  Warts are tumours or growths of the skin caused by infection with Human Papillomavirus (HPV).They are contagious when in contact with the skin of an infected person. It is also possible to get warts from using towels or other objects used by an infected person.

Exactly what it is can be confirmed only after examination, viral antibodies testing and biopsy. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

In grown hairs can do that...remember pubic hairs are curly so it is likely that it is curled up under the skin and causing it to do that. It happens all of the time with women who shave thier bikini area.
