Suggest Treatment For Recurrent Contact Dermatitis
I am worried that I could have genital herpes. A few months ago I went to a doctor to get checked for herpes and she told me that I had contact dermatitis and prescribed me a cream. After using the cream for a few days, the bumps and itchiness went away. A few days ago, I got bumps again and used the cream last night. Now the itchiness and bumps are gone. Could those bumps have been from contact dermatitis again or is it herpes? Or did she misdiagnose me and those bumps have always been from herpes not contact dermatitis?

Hello dear,
I think you must have contact irritant dermatitis or something else because your description doesn't match with herpes,.
In herpes there is initially burning at the site , than there are vesicles that ruptures in to shallow ulcers..
So relex, and do post (drraseshpatel@gmail.com)images if such episode occurs again , to clear the doubts.
Thank you
