Are Fluid Filled Blisters On The Penis Symptoms Of Herpes?

Posted on Sat, 6 Aug 2016

Question: Hello, im scared, i was doing a lot of dry humping, and gential to gential rubbing. No sex was involved. By Friday I had a bump looked like three bumps that merged into one. I'm pretty sure they leak clear fuild, not positive of this. I popped it, which was not hard, so it healed the next day. There was no pain, redness, itching, or anything. I've been googling like crazy and I'm losing my mind is this herpes or what. I have pictures and have had my wife look at it and shes saying there no way that its herpes. Your thoughts.

Brief Answer:
Herpes unlikely, upload pictures

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
I am Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, a dermatologist.
According to your complaints herpes is unlikely as it is usually associated with painful fluid filled blisters which rupture to follow form erosions and it won't heal in a day's time.
I would recommend you to upload the photographs of the affected areas so that I can have a clearer picture of the condition and can guide you accordingly.
Regards
Dr Asmeet

Brief Answer:
Looking more like erythema multiforme

Detailed Answer:
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it is looking like erythema multiforme.
It usually occurs as a reaction to some drug or infection.
Although based on its look herpes can't be ruled out.
I would recommend you to consult a doctor and get it examined clinically.

Brief Answer:
Seems to be resolving

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it seems to be resolving. It will be fine in another week's time.
You can simply apply a topical antibiotic like neosporin ointment on it twice daily to hasten its resolution.
