Could Red Lumps On The Genitals Be The Symptom Of STD?
I have received oral sex last week without a condom and was worried i might have caught something. I was stressing out very hard until I got checked this week and tested negative for everything except herpes 1 (I am almost positive I have contracted this much earlier on as i have seen bumps on my genitals before). I was told by people at planned parenthood that this is extremely common and most people have this virus. I still am seeing about 4 small red bumps on my genitals and a small cut on my shaft. All of which is NOT painful at all. Also on the test results page it stated that a positive test would be greater than 1.09 antibodies and I tested a 1.52 in antibodies. Does this mean I am having an outbreak? If so, am I going to infect my partner? Please let me know if I am overreacting or if I should be getting additional help. Thank you
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the test are negative then no need to worry about this, because such nonspecific appearance of the genital is not the indication of any STD, you are not going to infect to your partner, clinical sign is more important than the test if you do not have any complain then why to worry about this, just take it easy, and no need to worry about any thing, hope this information helps, take care.
