Suggest Treatment For Rash On The Penis Head
Folliculitis possibly on beginning of shaft? I noticed hairs are growing out of every single bump which I believe is folliculitis, there is a break out on my thighs and I am noticing some on the start of my shaft, I m hoping this so from folliculitis and not an out break of herpes considering the rash has began a day after sex and I believe it s from friction. Do you think I have herpes or is it simply folliculitis?

Hello,
I don't believe it is folliculitis because there are no hairs in a shalf that can be infected. I think it can be related to a sexually transmitted disease and herpes is a possibility. Please get tested for STD as soon as possible.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
