Hi Thanks for posting your query on HCM Sorry to hear all you have gone through. The new symptoms you present(bumps/blisters) around your private might not have anything to due with your previous infections.Possible causes of such symptoms are STIs like herpes and syphilis.The symptoms could also be caused by a fungal skin infection around your private or just local bacteria skin infection.I will suggest you see your Doctor for examination.Work-ups like syphilis tests, herpes antibody tests and urinalysis may help.Treatment will depend on the results of the tests.Given the fact that you are diabetic, a good blood sugar level control will favor quick recovery. Hope my answer will help you Best regards
