Penis Rash

Hello,

To Make along story short< i had received unprotected Oral Sex from an escort in August.  I was quite concerned when in late November I starting experiencing a red what looked to be a rash on my penis.  I went to the STD clinic in November and was told that it was not herpes but some sort of skin irratation and not to worry about it. In late December as the redness had not dissappeared I went back had them look at my penis again,  again they told it was not herpes not to worry.  As of today the irratation is still there and I'm quite concerned that maybe they misdiagnosed me.  I have attached the following photos of my penis for you to have a look over and hopefully you can tell me what you think.  I have never had any blisters with fluid but I've read that's not always indicidive of Herpes and that symptoms can appear months after your initial contact.  I appreciate any adivice or thoughts you can give me as I have been a complete mess for the past 5 months.  Thank-you in advance.  Can you please let me know if you are able to view the photo I sent you.  Thank-you again

Your description sounds like irritation, not herpes.  That's what the doctors who saw you said, so that's what I think it is.  Ask the doctor again if you want to, but I think you should take their reassurance at face value.

Best.
