Very Small bumps

Hi,

6 months ago i had unprotect sex with women. Later i heard some rumours that she had herpes. I immediately began to freak out. Later that week, i developed a rash inside of my groin fold. I went to the doctor and he told me it was intertrigo. There was no bumps or blisters, just irritated and cracked skin in the groin fold. After awhile i went to another dermatologist and he told me it was intertrigo and i even went to another one and he said the same thing. Therefore i put it out of my mind that it was herpes. However, over time i began to worry and worry because of all the stuff i read on the internet and began to examine my penis so closely that i freak out everytime i see a bump or whatever on my penis. On the shaft, on the side away from my body, there seems to be super small bumps that have been there since i began to examine my penis so closely in july. They are still there. I have fordyce spots on my scrotum and base of my penis, so could these be fordye spots? They don't hurt, feel smooth and i barely feel them when i run my finger over them. I have one bump underneath the head of my penis on the side away from me that has been there since the summer as well. that one i can feel when i run my hand over it but it doesnt hurt, i cant pop it and its white. Help? ive been freaking out. I contacted the girl and she said she did not have herpes and was tested for it. I got tested again in august but i tend to worry ALOT. Please help

Hi, krazi is correct, if you tested negative 3 months post then your symptoms are not herpes related.

If you tested negative I would go by that that test unless proven otherwise. I too am someone who worries a lot. I recently got hsv from a man I was/am seeing. Gave me chamydia and herpes, what a lovely person. Anyhoo before that a few years ago I had asked a guy of he had warts because of was the rumor I had heard. Herpes and warts can be contagious even with a condom. The guy denied it so I let it go. The good thing is that you can get a blood test to test for hsv antibodies. Wait three months after the incident to get the igg. If you're really concerned, get the western blot or biokit test. Good luck
