Brief Answer:
It looks like Furuncle
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I saw the picture.
It could be Furuncle, i.e. Infection in relation to hair follicle of that area.
Apart from Antibiotic, you should take Anti inflammatory tablet also.
Acyclovir is an anti viral drug. Please do not use it without consulting doctor.
If there is no response with Amoxicillin and Anti inflammatory tablets, please consult a Surgeon and proceed further.
In few people, it will develop into an Abscess which has to be drained by giving a small incision.
Nothing to worry.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health and speedy recovery
Regards

Thanks Dr XXXXXXX for Replying
If it was Furuncle i should be having intense pain / puss and it should grow bigger every day right but I do not feel pain unless i try to squeeze the bump hard . could it be lymphocele?
if you examine the picture i had attached earlier very closely . there are very very small white dotes spread all over. is that hair follicle or any thing else
what are the anti inflammatory tablets or cream would you suggest. how long should i wait before i see a doctor .( I mean if the bumb is not growing or not painful or does it burst it on its own or shall i squeeze it out or in the case if subside on its own ). basically how long it takes to recover
The unwell/uneasy feeling /bodyache were almost reduced after taking amoxicillin but i continued it for 5days just to complete the whole set of dosage . yes noted in regards to acylovir usage .Thanks
I have another query apart from the above .
As i remember 6-7 years ago i have taken a full screening std test and hiv test just for myself to monitor my sexual health . everything was fine.
while explaining the results the doctor said if i recall correctly hsv 2 is less than 35 % not sure whether is antibody/antigen count . he played it down saying almost every one get hs1 in their life time and hs2 are most common in sexually active people aged 18-50
do u think its a good idea for me to get HPV vaccinated . prior vaccination what test i should be checking on.
(if am already having any strains of hpv , the vaccination doesnt amke any sense right )
so back my actual question
what is hsv2 less than 35% means .. does it change over years i mean does our body produce auto immune /antibody over time and it become less contagious
lets assume if some one had hsv-2 . do u think they will have problems in having/delivering a healthy baby in future . does that complicate their sexual life or they cant have active sexual life .
is herpes infection is a death sentence. do we have promisingor latest medical treatment even its not a complete cure avail in near future .. similarly fever cold /flu doesnt have a complete cure either as it keep coming on and off so in similar way how we can better manage herpes well and still lead a healthy life
let me know ur valuable thoughts

Brief Answer:
It cannot be Lymphocele
Detailed Answer:
Hi
The white dots could be hair follicles.
Anti-inflammatory tablet should contain Aceclofenac 100mg and should be taken for 5 days to 1 week.If there is no response, you should consult a Doctor.
You should not squeeze it.
We cannot predict the exact time of recovery.
There is no need for HPV Vaccination routinely.
I am sorry that I cannot comment on HSV2 percentage without seeing the report.
People with HSV2 can deliver a healthy baby.It doesn't affect sexual life.
Herpes Simplex virus cannot be cured completely.Acyclovir has to be taken to reduce the severity.Even if you don't take Acyclovir,it reduces spontaneously in few.
Whenever immunity comes down due to illnesses like fever,Herpes is manifested.It gradually comes down.
Hope I answered your questions.
Regards

hello Dr XXXXXXX Good morning .
Thank you for replying
The mention Aceclofenac 100mg taken 3 doses per day? for 5days to 1week
In case if i cannot get this tablet over pharmacy counter ( As you know certain medication requires DR's prescription) can i take ibuprofen 200mg , or if any alternatives.
i guess ibuprofen is anti- inflammatory if i can take whats the per day dosage. some times names of certain medicines are slightly diffrent in diffrent countries due to various pharmacy companies
So for i only took amoxiciilin and i stopped it from yesterday.. so do i have to continue with amoxicclin when i take this anti -inflammatory tablet. I mean should i take both at same time ?
As you have cautioned about acyclovir cream usage . should i stop applying it ?
yes Dr i understand that u cant comment on HSV2 % with out seeing the report. now worries
since i have tested 7 yeras back i have disposed the hard copy .. may be you could give me a general guideline of HSV2 count/or anitgen bodies on whats considered as normal or not at contagious level just for me to understand how hsv1/2 are guaged .
perhaps iam curious same time anxious and get panic when i feel some thing abnormal diffrence in me.
I do read a lot of medical/medication journals of mayoclinic,NHS.and XXXXXXX medical sites . hence too many infos are there and i tend to co relate things at times
by the way ,does crank sores under the tounge /oral herpes pass/ transmit through intimate kissing . if the crank sore does go away after using betadine gargle soultion in 3 to 4 days, then it cannot be classified under oral herpes right. or what could be classified as oral herpes .
seems like we r living left/righ with bacteria and viruses
DR ,some of my questions may not be very related but i am asking it as preventive measures to protect myself by seeking right infos for my own medical awareness from a medical expert like you . hope you could understand .

Hi Dr ,
just to update you. Today evening I noticed a very very small hole(exactly like if use saftey Pin to Punch a hole) in the bump and very very little blood dropping naturally ( I never touch or try to squeeze)
i used a tissue to wipe it off. and i never felt any pain when i press and not a bit of puss of any form. its just blood. Is this our bodys natural response of draining body fluid as its own.?
do i have to wash with some dettol (for hygeine) and apply any cream.( i have mupirocin ointement 2% with me).
does it automtically stop or i should squeeze or drain the blood away since its naturally coming out . pls advice

Brief Answer:
Pus will be present still deeper
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Pus will be present still deeper.The hole is in superficial layers only.So, only blood is coming.In course of time,the hole may extend still inside and pus may come out.Or else,you should consult a Surgeon and let out the pus by a small incision under Local Anaesthesia.
You can apply Mupirocin cream.You clean the surrounding area with Dettol and apply cream over the wound/hole
Wait for 3 days.If pus is not coming spontaneously, please consult a Surgeon and proceed further.
Don't squeeze now.
Hope I answered your question

Brief Answer:
If pus is there and not coming out,it has to be drained
Detailed Answer:
Hi
If the pus comes out, nothing has to be done.
If it is present and the hole is closed,then it has to drained by a small incision.
Surgeon will give a small incision over the swelling.
It will not involve the deeper layers of Penis.So, nothing to worry.Just a superficial incision.
It commonly occurs.
Hope I answered your question
