A member asked:

Married. have herpes 1. since two weeks now i keep getting papee cuts outside of my genital area. married. what causes these cuts.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More info needed: If you shave or trim these are likely the causes. Without a physical exam is is difficult to address this issue. Provide pictures or see a physician in person. Good luck
