Herpes?
3 months ago I received unprotected oral sex from a girl that appeared to not have any mouth sores. 11 weeks after that I noticed a very tiny painless red sore that appeared below the mid shaft on the penis. It did not hurt at all. The sore didnt have puss, nor a scab. i dont recall seeing a red bump or blister before the sore appeared which is the normal routine for a herpes cycle right? The sore basically closed up within 2-3 days then had a shiny white coating to cover it up but its been 13 days now and I can see the mark where it appeared. I know herpes usually doesnt leave a mark but i was cleaning it with peroxide and that may of not caused it to scab or anything. My lymph nodes have been hurting for the past 5 weeks but the doctor I went to said that they were normal. I also showed the doctor a pic of it and she said it was too small for it to be herpes. It was just one sore and painless. Could I have been asymptomatic then had a mild breakout? I contacted the girl and she said she never had any mouth sores but she may be asymptomatic and was shedding... I am extremely nervous can you help me please and thanks
And the first lesion I noticed was on October 17th which was 3 months after exposure it was never weeping or neither did it hurt or burn.
I'm in a bad predicament with no insurance! Can you let me know what you think about this situation though? I never had an initial outbreak during the incubation period and all the funny feelings down there is no where no the lesions that showed up. On and off today my penis was going from normal to numb... I never seen a blister and I examine my genitals a lot throughout the day.
are you following up on all these symptoms with your provider when you have them?
It's been a while but I need more advice grace. November 3rd another scab showed up because i believe i saw a very tiny scab and i started digging and the scab appeared bigger from me digging. It ended up falling off before the two day mark. Lately I been feeling these sensations down there that might be tingling but I don't know because it started after I ran into a goal post playing football injuring my hip and knee. That started on December 9th and my penis felt numb on the whole right side for 4-5 days but nothing ever showed up down there. Went away for a few days and then the same sensations happened on the 17th then stopped and now it's going on again for the past few days... Have you ever heard anybody having sensations like that feeling with herpes? My risk exposure happened on July 31st and since my groin pain that appeared September 23rd it haven't went away! I just been feeling weird down there everyday and all this I believe comes from receiving unprotected oral sex. I'm having constant groin pain and it limits me from playing sports and everything. Just to throw this out here, my lesions was on my bottom left shaft and my right side of penis feels funny with those sensations. Would herpes cause groin pain for 3-4 months? I want to say if this is herpes it coming off very atypical.... The sores were very painless also... I also felt a little pain on the left side of my penile head. I was only at risk for hsv 1 but should these constant symptoms making me wonder about hsv 2? Also i'm always feeling dizzy and my neck and behind me ear lymph nodes appear to be swollen on and off.. Thanks a lot grace and sorry for the grammar I'm doing this on my phone... Happy holidays as well...
And I really can't say that the sore healed up in 2-3 days. I just know that there were no redness or swelling or puss and it was just white coating. I also should mention that I rubbed urine and applied peroxide and the sore didn't hurt one bit...
Sorry about that I am new to this. Two weeks prior to the painless sore I had extreme itching and I started to think it was a fungal infection so I decided to put neosporin and athletes foot cream on it which may of causes the small sore but I highly doubt it. Herpes could cause a single painless tiny sore that appears 11 weeks later though right? I never had one of these in my life and all a long I been stressing out over catching herpes and this little sore pops up. So you truly believe this isn't herpes and why or why not? Last question also...
