Herpes?/Time frames???????

The last time i had any sex was over 3 months ago. about two weeks ago i shaved my groin. a few days later i have a red bump on the upper part of my groin. Its only one red spot. it doesnt hurt or anything. it looks like a ingrown hair. How long would herpes take to show up is 3 months to long? and if it was a primary outbreak would it only be one red bump? How soon for an inital outbreak?

You're in the military?  Okay, well, so am I.  So we both know how hard being in the military is on your body.  With all the PTing we have to do to keep in shape.  That's hard on our body.  Maybe it's just "growing" pains....

yeah i hear yeah.....nobody can figure out what these pains are and my general thinks i have herpes.....i showed him the blood tests.....that didnt seem to matter i guess cause he hasnt changed his minds......if it isnt herpes thats fine.....i can accept that...i just dont know whats going on....so i was just trying to see if anyone has the same pains. I understand that if you worry about stuff it can produce symptoms...its just that I will finally forget about it and some pains show up....so i dont think it is do to my mind thinking i have it....and you say let it go...i would if the pain would go away....I also have gotten the tingling everyonce in a while in the genitals....i also use to get it all over the body so i dont know what thay means.....its hard to explain. i get all these different type of pains/tinglings/burnings, its weird.....i actually moved on after my last blood test......then i started getting pains and symptoms going on....so who knows...

Pinched nerve?  Have you thrown your back out lately?  Hypochondria...it's when people believe they have something so greatly, that they're body actually produces symptoms similar to the actual ailment.  

You had a brush risky sex right?  Let it go...if your tests came back negative,...just let it go.  It's going to make things a lot easier.

And when I had my first outbreak, I had sores and blisters, they hurt.  But that's about it.  I don't get any pain, I get a little tingling w/ prodrome symptoms, but other then that...nothing.
