Hi
Welcome to XXXXXXX
Herpes will come in blisters. It will be painful in addition.
May be it is sweat rash or a superficial fungal infection. If you could send a picture, it would have better for me to evaluate. Or else you can visit a dermatologist.
Thanks Ruthie for asking your querry.
All the best.

Hi XXXXX
Thanks for attaching the photograph.
From the photograph it does not seem to be those of herpes. Possibly a superficial fungal infection. Keep the area dry. Apply some antifungal powder. It will vanish away.
A mere contact with infected area will result in transfer of herpes. No need of vigorous penetration.
Transmission from men to women is more common than women to men.
The commonest site in my experience is on and around genitals.
I hope I am clear.
In case have more questions, you can ask.
All the best.

Yes XXXXX
You are right.
Genitak herpes in between legs is a very remote possibility.
In addition clinical also it does not seem to be herpes.
Hope it helps you
Wish you good health.
If you have no more questions to ask , you can close the discussion and rate it.

can it b tender from me pushing on it
Hi
Any area of the body will be tender depending on amount of pressure given.
You have to compare both side to know whether it is actually tender.
Or you have to compare your past experience if any, to know actual presence of tenderness.
Normally if gentle pressure is applied, it should not pain.
If you you are feeling any mass over there and are tender, consult your physician for a clinical examination.

Hi
The exposure is 2 months back. So it is a very large gap for development of herpes rash due to that that exposure.
hope you understood.

Hi
As I have already explained you the lesions in the photograph are not clinically seem to be herpetic in origin.
I don't find anything for which we should be worried about herpes.
If you still think about it's possibility, it will be my sincere advice to you to have a one to one consultation with your dermatologist and get yourself examined by him.
Now If you have no more querries, kindly close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health.
