Hi what your describing and the way they are reacting to the antivirals would pretty much rule out that this is a herpes. Very often a skin irritation in the genital area can become cronic and need some special care to control them.
Went to the doctors today and he seems to think it might be HPV.
HPV are topical skin warts that are hard and should not be irritating the skin.
They are not hard, the doctor prescribed me some topical ointment so I'm going to give that a try and see what happens.
