Can Herpes Cause Red Painless Bump With White Head On Mons Pubis?
I have a red painless bump with white head on mons pubis. No pain or discharge when squeezed and one on other side but not red at all just raised. Could these have any likelihood of being herpes? They are in an area I frequently shave. I am worried because I have read about misdiagnosing herpes to be pimples.

Thank you for query.if the bump is existing for long time without any symptoms then it is not herpes you can allay fear of it.Herpes usually present as grouped vesicles with pain or burning or itching and they subside and recur in many .It may be folliculitis or any small sebaceous cysts consult doctor for diagnosis or send across photos with details we will help you.Dr Bharatesh Dermatologist
