What is wrong with me
Hi,, first time post..I am freaking out,, about a year and half ago i had protected sex with a girl and a few days later she called me up and said she was hurting a little. Right away i was scared to death (i just get scared really fast and get paranoid).. since telling me about it,, i started feeling an irritation on my penis (i think it was more my mind then anything) but none the less i went to a dermatologist who said it was not an std,, i also saw the physician assistant in the office and he said it was nothing to worry,, i wasnt satisfied with them just telling me it was not an std so i went and got tested,, all tests came back negative (thank god),,, now in late october i had had protected sex with two girls at two different times,, and again i just began to think and told myself 'what if these girls had something' and my mind started messing with me. so i again i began getting an irritation on my penis that seemed to shift from the right side to the left side on a daily basis. I also realized that my mother was using something new when drying the laundry in the drier.. I quickly told her to stop and noticed an improvement but im still getting an irritation right under my penis head on the right side and the next day it shifts to the left,,,i ve kind of also noticed that when wearing briefs the stitching in the briefs might be the reason for the irritation,, but i keep telling myself is this herpes,, plz help,,,, i ve tried vaseline,neosporin,bacitration,locoid (kinda helps).. i have never had blisters,, buring when urinating,, or itching,, its more of an irriatation and like i said it switches from side to side.. last night it was on the left side today i wake up and its back on the right side..i am so lost and very depressed. I went to a another dermatologist on tuesday and she examined me and said its not herpes but i asked to take a test and i am waiting on the results,,do i have herpes,, is this anxiety,, plz help

Dave, we can't continue to address these individual and varied concerns on this forum in this way, I'm sorry. I will say, in closing, that you can get HSV 1 even if the infected person has no sores at the time of sexual contact.

hi,, Over the weekend i had sexual intercourse and oral sex with a girl,,i asked the girl if she was clean and she said yes,, i had her call up her doctor,, she said she recently got tested and was negative,, she calls the doctor today the nurse says all is negative but she has hsv1,,, my question is she says she has never had a cold sore in her life,,, can she only pass hsv1 with an active open sore and can i get hsv1 or hsv2 from this when she gave me oral sex

Why have it removed? Does it bother you? I don't know anyone in NYC that's a derm. Sorry!

I have cyst that is pretty much hidden right under the head of my penis. I have had it for about 10+ years lately its been starting to bother me. I was wondering if this is something i should get removed and if so,, do you know of any good dermatologist in the nyc area

I couldn't recommend any treatment, or anything to put on it, without having a better idea of what it was. Have you consulted your primary care provider about this?

what else could it be,, everyday for the past month and a half i have been dealing with this.. is there anything i can put on it,, thank you for your reply,, really appreciated

Dave, I know you are scared, but there is absolutely nothing in your post that suggests a herpes infection to me, just nothing! I think you need to believe the negative test results that you have obtained, and recognize that the sensations that you have are likely normal sensations and would mean nothing to you if you weren't worried about herpes.

So last week I had anal sex with this girl wearing a condom and two days after I have pimple like bumps at the beginning of the shaft. I can pop them but they don't really go away, I'm terrified that I caught something, what do you think?
also this has been going on for the past 45 days,,
