A member asked:
I have blisters on my bum cheeks and i have been put on antibiotics could it be herpes if i have never had sex or could it just be bacterial infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes is unlikely given your history. The doctor who examined you and prescribed antibiotic is in a better position to advise. However, if you are overweight, losing weight will lessen the chance of recurrence. Ask your doctor to check you for diabetes as well. Wish you good health!
