Do herpes bumps have hair growing out of them? - Sexually Transmitted Diseases Message Board

i shaved my entire penis about two months ago, coincedentaly i also had unprotected sex around that time...

ever since then the hair has started to grow back (its alot of hair too, never shave your penis if you dont want even more hair to grow back!!!)

ive started to notice these pimple like bumps that hang around for a little while.

ive examined most of these bumps, and almost all of them have hair growing out of them...

i looked at herpes pictures on the web and almost none of the pictures have hair growing from the herpes bumps...

do you guys think i just have a problem with all of the hair growing back causing the bumps or what?

sounds like ingrown hairs.... does the person you slept with have herpes?? if so, i would be worried, but if you're just assuming that these bumps are herpes then thats totally different. if they have hairs growing out of them, then i dont think its anything to get too worried about. let all the hair grow back and see if they go away... and DONT SHAVE! if they come back, then get them checked out. if they go away and stay away, then they're most likely from shaving.
