Question 1

I have had a recent bump outbreak in pubic area and i'm not sure what it is. is it herpes, i've shown many symptoms of herpes with fevers&blisters.

Accepted Answer

If you want to know what disease or diseases you might have, especially if you are concerned about sexually transmitted diseases, you need testing in real life. Many sexually transmitted diseases "travel together." Avoid intercourse until you have had a pelvic exam and STD testing, including herpes and HIV. Get seen right away so you can be evaluated and treated. Best wishes to you.

Accepted Answer

Hello.  I donâ€™t know the cause of your lesions. Local symptoms from a herpes  simplex 2 infection usually is seen 2 to 12 days after exposure and consists of a cluster of lesions that look like blisters. The lesions can appear on the penis, anus, labia or cervix and they can spread and coalesce followed by crusting over. The fluid in the lesions is very contagious. Some people contract herpes simplex 2 without any symptoms.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

You should see a dermatologist, your symptoms are not related to having kissed a person with cold sores 6 months ago.

Question 6

What are pimples on the pubic area caused by? could it be herpes? or just a regular pimple? so far i have 1 looks liked its swelled up , and coming. looks almost like scabish.  it a cluster, but ive had cluster me before that bled when i picked it?

Accepted Answer

Herpes are small blisters that break very easily&scab,are painful&come in clusters.The pubic location is also good for it. 
If they are real tiny acne-looking ‘pimples’, it may be folliculitis.Some are pierced by a hair, not in clusters, red around and just tender. 
Anything you pick at, will bleed.
Remember:Herpes is contagious, it can become recurrent, medication will suppress it.

Question 7

I have one big raised bump in my pubic area and one or two small bumps but not in clusters what are the chances that this is herpes?

Accepted Answer

This is not likely to be herpes, which generally does not cause sores in hairy areas, especially with the intitial HSV infection. And herpes rarely causes a "big raised bump" anywhere. I'm betting on pimples or folliculitis. But if you remain concerned, or if herpes seems possible because you are at risk for STD (e.g. new or unsafe partner), see a doctor or clinic. Better safe than sorry!

Question 8

Can you contract herpes if a possibly infected person uses your razor on his/her pubic area and then you, yourself use the same razor, because the infected person in question didnt tell me?

Accepted Answer

Very low likelihood. Not entirely impossible, just low likelihood. Usual spread is direct skin-to-skin or via body secretions (saliva, vaginal secretions, etc).

Question 9

Can herpes only be in the pubic hair or other places as well?

Accepted Answer

Often shows up  on penis or vulva.

Question 10

If u got herpes could the warts show up on your bladder (under pubic hairs) male?

Accepted Answer

While technically herpes, caused by herpesvirus , and genital warts, caused by HPV virus are not the  same entity, both are considered venereal  in nature and both can distribute onto the pubic area of a man or woman.  For this reason, a condom may actually not protect sexual partners from spread by contact. There are vaccinations to prevent HPV and pills to suppress outbreaks of genital herpes.
