Possible herpes?
About a week ago I started having a rash in my butt crack and then I noticed there were little bumps too. It is painful. I thought maybe I just had jock rash but now I'm worried that it might be something more serious. Yesterday my boyfriend found a couple bumps on his penis and now we are both worried it might be herpes. Is this a real concern or is it just a bacterial infection or something?
The same irritation started on my buttocks sometimes around my menstrual cycle. I thought i was allergic to my pads, never thought for a moment it was an outbreak. I always assumed outbreak only occurred in the vaginal area. Get tested asap.
