okay, so I woke up the other morning, took a shower, and when I got out I noticed this pimple looking bumps on my stomach. they didn't itch or anything, but the day after they started to itch. I havent really touched them, but my mom didn't know what it is so she told me to put some anti-fungal cream on it to stop the itching, and now it looks like a bunch of tiny itchy blisters ):
anybody have any idea what it could be? > < my boyfriend had something similar below his belly button, but he never went to the doctor and eventually it disappeared. then, he got the same kind of thing between his fingers, and then he didnt go to the doctor again. and now like 5 months 7 months later, I have something similar above my belly button D: could it be a heat rash? it's right in the crease of my stomach where I slouch. maybe that has something to do with it?
well, if anyone knows! thank you!

lol okay no, it's not that -.- I think I would know if it was herpes. I'm positive it's not an STD, just because I know my lifestyle and what not so that is out of the question. it's either bed bugs, heat rash, yeast/fungus,....? any other ideas?
Re: cluster of tiny, itchy blisters on my stomach! ):
Herpes is not always an STD. We all have herpes viruses in our bodies and at times of stress, it can be triggered. My daughter got frequent cold sores on her stomach and side since the age of six. Definitely NOT STD. If your BF had one then you probably got it from him. If you touch it, wash your hands at once and don't share towels etc. Look up Herpes type 1. Now that I have seen the photo, it looks even more like a herpes 1 cold sore. Sera.
Re: cluster of tiny, itchy blisters on my stomach! ):
It is possible that it may be a type of herpes if you and your boyfriend ever hugged or rubbed against each other or even if he has touched you if he has the virus on the hands as well as it is transmitted from skin to skin contact.
This virus does not discriminate so anyone can get it
Also, many people do have cold sores which is typically type 1 but everyone does not have the herpes virus within their bodies.
On another note it may be a form of eczema, you can try putting some cornstarch on it, or try going to the doctor.

I think that I have the same thing that you do. I tried to look at the photo but it says that I do not have access to it. Did you ever find out what it was?
