Could The Red Spots On The Penis Be Due To Herpes?
I had protected sex with a female about 3 days ago. I was a little freaked out about a canker sore that began the next day which is now going away. I asked her friend is she knew if she had any stds or herpes. Her friend said no. I looked up symptoms of herpes and i don t really have any of then. My mouth seems normal other than a small bump near my uvula and my penis has a bit of raw redness and seems to be a spot where my penile papules seem to be redder that the rest. Should I be worried about herpes?

Hello, Please to hear about this STD. Red area in the penile area and bump near uvula is because of many things. As if I am your treating Doctor I would like to ask you that whether you feeling pain on the ulcer area at pain or not. Because herpes is always painful. If you have pain than it is herpes. If it is not pain than it may be something else. I would like to ask you also whether you have enlarged inguinal lymph node or not? this question and signs are important when you are making diagnosis about this type of STD. Kindly provide me the symptoms, so I can tell you further diagnosis as well as treatment. thnx
