Good afternoon Ms Terry.. I am writing you again after almost two weeks… Kind of worried here..

A week ago I started feeling a sensation on the left bottom side of my scrotum. It is located on a very specific point.. So specific that there is a hair there that when I touch it it kinda of feels like a needle there ( I have to say that I shave my scrotum). It kinda of stings ocassionally when I don’t touch it ( that is when I am walking or just sitting) I wouldn’t say it tingles in that specific point ( follicule?) and a little of its surroundings in which I feel a sensation of irritation as well . It gets very sensitive when I rub it with tip of my finger. I went to doctor and got tested for HSV 2 ( after 2 months from contact) and did swab test on scrotum because he noticed it was red and thought there could be a bacteria there. He prescribed me an antbacterial cream. Sometimes the cream relieves it a little and shower but later I still feel it.

1) If this was herpes, Would this specific point that I touch with finger get all sensitive and even pinch if I touch it? ( I have to say that as soon I feel that sensation, it disappears as soon as I move… Gets interrupted)

2) It has already been a week Since sensation started. Would prodome last more than 4 days?

I also have to say I have been extremely worried, and been checking myself out every 5 minutes… Perhaps I have added bacteria there by doing that… Plus the fact that I shaved with I used razor couple of weeks ago…

Every morning I wake up, my only hopes are sustained by the fact that you said ‘Thick skin of buttocks and thighs don’t shed the virus’ … Ms Terry… Nerves do not go through thick skin then?

I would appreciate once again your insights …
