What Causes Silvery Pimples In Pubic Area?

default
Posted on Fri, 25 Sep 2015
Question: I am a black female. For the past 2 months i have be getting silvery pimples in my pubic area. They are hard to squeeze. The ones that i have squeezed contain a little clear fluid and blood. Could these be herpes? I use condoms when having sex and am aware that condom use only decreases the risk of getting herpes. I have also had some itching, soreness, and a little throbbing my pubic area.

Brief Answer:
possibility of genital molluscum contagiosum

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query and I have noted down your concerns.

I would keep a likely possibility of genital molluscum contagiosum which present as asymptomatic, hard to firm, pearly white papules. It is an STD. However i request you kindly upload an image so that i am able to confirm that. You may upload an image either at "Reports Section" Or you may mail me at YYYY@YYYY with the subject line as Attn: Dr. Kakkar.
Vaginal itching and soreness is likely to be due to vulvovaginal candidiasis.

Regards
