Question: Hello. After 20+ hours of having sex my testicles started itching... Didn't pay much attention next day I noticed small rash on my penis. There was a foul smell too .the rash never hurt or itched on my penis.I was super concerned so I got tested for herpes right after 72 hours from sex. Thanks god it came back negative. I have few questions. Decently I discover couple bumps on the head of the penis no pain or itching.. My old bumps are white like scars now. Question is how accurate can the blood test be. I have pictures If needed.
Nothing visible on testicles. Question number two is...can this be yeast infection.. BTW I just got done taking antibiotics and on that day I took the double dosage of over the ounter testosterone medication just to make sure I have good long sex. spots on the head of the penis are New today

Brief Answer:
There is still chance of herpes
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I have visualized attached pictures and read the provided description.
From the available information I feel there are chance of sexually transmitted diseases including herpes and scabies. It is possible to get negative report on blood tests but still the lesions in photographs appear like vesicles and which is quite characteristic of herpes.
I must acknowledge that time duration mentioned between sexual exposure and appearance of lesions is mismatch. It is possible that you are too sensitive to develop lesions in very short period or it is also possible that current lesions are result of earlier sexual exposure.
The chance of yeast infection is there but the current lesions do not support diagnosis of yeast infection.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for my future patients.

can it be allergic reaction to something
Brief Answer:
Unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.
Yes allergic reactions may present in similar kind of lesions but there is tendency to develop all symptoms at the same time. Allergic reaction do not appear in different crops.
In addition the reaction is generally systematized and rash only limited to sexual organs is rare possibility.
I feel allergic reaction is unlikely cause.
I hope this clarifies further.
Thanks and regards.
