Are Blisters On My Penile Shaft Due To Any Soap Or Essential Oil Usage?
Question: Hi doctor,
I went for full std check up and the report came back as herpes type 1 @1.2. I have blister on my shaft of my penis. But the doctor whom examined it told me this is not a herpes case. I am wondering could it be skin allergy? It is clear within 3days. The blisters did pop. Could soap, essential oils cause blister on penis

Hi,
I have gone through your complaints and need to ask you few questions:
Is this the report of IgM HSV1 or IgG HSV1?
Was there a single blister or multiple blisters?
Was the blister associated with pain, burning or itching?

Is igg HSV 1- 1.2.
Multiple blisters near each other. It pop and disappear within 3-4days. No pain or burning. Itch a little bit.
Before the blister appears, I applied tea tree oil to it and at the same time I used a different brand of soap for showering. (All happened before blister appears)
No medicine was taken.

Brief Answer:
IgG of 1.2 indicates past infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
IgG of 1.2 indicates a past infection.
It doesn’t indicate that your present blisters are due to herpes.
These blisters could be an allergic reaction to a new soap.
