Hi
They appear to be very small. HSV manifests as vesicles. That is they contain fluid and may appear to be shiny and fragile. I do not think this is your case. This appears to be a rash or mild skin irritation secondary to sexual activity or to manipulating the area. Just observe the area for any changes in character and appearance, Avoid touching or picking on the area as this may only further irritate the skin.
just an update on how small the little red dots are, i cannnot see them jus looking at my penis, i have to stretch the skin to seem them at all. also today almost all of the physical symptoms seem to have gone away.
Hi
I meant HSV not HPV. That was an error there. Yes, HPV or warts do not seem to be the case. I meant that HSV or herpes may actually still be a differential here. A burning and tingling sensation are usually associated with HSV. They are clusters of vesicles on top of a red base. With a positive history of HSV type 1 infection of the eye ( is this correct?) , this may increase the likelihood of autoinoculation in the genital areas. Although possible, this is not very frequent.
At this point, the skin condition responded to the medications. This may suggest that it could be a dermatitic rash ( eg xerotic or irritant dermatitis ).Continue to observe the area and check for any blisters or change in the character of the skin. I know you are still worried however, just continue with the medications as indicated. At this point, no further intervention is necessary.
No it doesnt appear to be HPV, warts and many in that family don't have symptoms like this. warts dont itch, its fleshy risne skin. most of the pics out there on the net are mislabeled and severe cases (people with an immune system problem). also it comes and goes somewhat rapidly, warts dont come and go like that so HPV and it family is ruled out.warts last for months, u gotta either chop it off, burn or freeze, or wait a really long time for it to go away if it does. i honestly would not even think much of it if it was warts, warts is a joke for men, its only for women that a close relative of warts (another memeber of the HPV family) causes cervical cancer. HPV is out of the question, even if i have it, its not whats giving me these symptoms . . .
Hi
With a significant sexual history , I suggest that STD's have to be ruled out first before other conditions like folliculitis and dermatitic skin conditions are considered. I suggest that you have this assessed by your urologist since HPV may still be a differential here. HPV appears as vesicles that are usually clustered together and these vesicles may have a burning and tingling sensation. Was this similar to your skin condition?
Refrain from any sexual activity until this has completely resolved.
