      Went back to the dr today. The sore was healed. The dr seemed confident it was jock itch even though the sore was healed. Here’s another pic or two I found I took when it was bad. Would it heal that quickly if it was herpes? I guess my main concern is I still have an itch or something if you will about where it feels like your urethra starts at the base of yournpenis. Hopefully those aren’t the same pics from last time. I’m just horrified right now and about to fall apart. So sorry if these are pointless questions

      And it still seems to all be warmer than normal on the skin. Though not nearly as irritated

      I would totally agree with your doctor about a fungal infection (jock itch). The location is very typical as is the presentation. I am so pleased that your doctor and I agree about this. I have no reason to think that this presentation is herpes at all. Fungal infection would make the skin feel warmer, yes.

      Thank you!!! Maybe I can relax some now. It’s just been going on for three weeks now. And with the other symptoms, and the other diseases having been ruled out with the tests in the proper time frame. It left herpes as the main possibility it seemed. Would the fungal infection cause urethral issues as well? Along with

      Nothing in this photo looks like herpes.

      Thanks. Seems like my previous question got lost in my posts which should have been one. Does the urethra issues that are still there coupled with other symptoms mean anything? And there’s a single bump where the rash was now that has a hard top (bad description I guess ) pic below…and again sorry if these are stupid. But something is wrong w me in some way. And I want to either find out or go on about my life. And more than anything it affects someone else which is more important in that aspect than it is to me.

      The photo looks like a little pimple to me. But if you really want to know what is inside that bump, I suggest you have it swab tested for a bacterial infection but it doesn’t look like herpes.
