Red Bump On Penile Shaft, Swollen Lymph Node On Neck. Sign Of Herpes?
I had this red bump on my penile shaft for about a week and a half but the swelling has gone down. I have gotten also swollen lymph nodes on my neck but it only lasted for one day. I have my blood work results coming back tomorrow but does that sound like herpes? I do not have any open sores or blistering or oozing from the red bump.
hi thank you for the query sir I have gone through your query...after going through your query I would like to throw some light on genital herpes...it usually starts as papules over shaft, glans of penis as time progress papules form ulcers and heal spontaneously..in your case it doesn't look like genital herpes .The symptoms you have mentioned only suggests a local infection and nothing to worry much about as it has already resolved.Hope your blood works come clean ... hope I have answered your query thank you regards DR Alekhya
