Had Protected Sex. Noticed Small Cut On Penis, No Blood Or Fluid. Could It Be Herpes?

default
Posted on Thu, 27 Jun 2013
Question: Hello. I am experiencing somewhat worrisome symptoms on me penis after a protected sexual encounter approx 2 weeks ago. Approx three days after I had sex, I noticed a small red "cut" on my penis. I did not experience any pain. It appeared as though the skin was trying to scab over. No blood or fluids were present. I am worried that this could be herpes or HPV. The female did perform oral sex on me without a condom. Could this XXXXXXX possibly be from rough oral sex (teeth) or something of that nature? Friction during intercourse? I have been taking photos of me penis during the past two weeks. It appears to be "healing", although, its been two full weeks and it is still not completely healed. Can you take a look and see what this could possibly be?

Hi,
Welcome to XXXXXXX
Thanks for posting your query.

I saw the pictures sent by you. It is not fit with either teeth XXXXXXX or with friction during intercourse. It doesn't seem to be due to Yeast infection and other STD ulcers.
Your ulcers look like Herpes Simplex. You had protected intercourse. But had an unprotected oral contact with that girl. This may be the source of the HSV ulcers. It is possible to get Herpes infection through oral sex. It is not big problem to be worried.
If you can consult your Physician, after a careful examination, he/she will help you for further investigation to arrive at the diagnosis. Then the treatment is also easy, as good medicines are available to heal HSV ulcers.
Get well soon.
