Red pimple like bumps in pubic area.
i wanted to know if these are signs of herpes...i recently a few days ago have had red pimple like blisters show up on my pubic area...i usually shave off my pubic hair and after that i noticed that i got them i popped one which i know is bad and it had a little clear liquid come out...not so much puss like but after a few days i noticed more and they itch a bit and now are puffy and red like irritated...i dont have this anywhere on the penis just the pubic area...could it be herpes? i also wanted to know since the last thing i did was give oral sex to a girl if i can get genital herpes from giving oral sex? this is a two part question so if you can answer both that would help me a lot. thanks
No you can't get genital herpes from performing oral sex on someone. It's transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, it doesn't travel through your body.
Shaving easily can cause irritation such as you describe. If you've never been tested for herpes though, now's as good a time as ever to find out your herpes status. A swab/culture of symptoms and an IgG type specific blood test is what you'd want.
