Suggest treatment for herpes
Patient: Herpes or not? YIKES! This has happened twice to me while wearing a pad-my skin breaks open.The first time-My partner was being rough on the outside of my clothes trying to turn me on by rubbing the outside of my privates over my clothes. The next day it hurt and I had a tear in my skin.Recently when wearing a pad something hurt in the same area. When I examined the area I had 3 tiny clear bubbles and one cut looking spot. The bubbles popped clear fluid and now the spot has turned into an open wound with a red border. It never scabs or crusts, it heals and goes away..when I try to take a picture to examine its too shiny. Doctor: HelloAfter reading your history in this query , these bubbles filled with clear fluid and cuts may be due to these reasons , these include>1 Abrasion or bruise , as you mentioned that your partner was rough on your private part , so this might have develop abrasion or bruise .You mentioned that there is an open wound , so this may be the result of bruise .2 Herpes zoster , as there is small multiple bubbles with with clear fluid and shining appearance indicate Herpes , so physical examination is important .As you mentioned that open wound healed and goes away so in my opinion this is a case of mild abrasion due to rubbing .If it don't spread then no need of any consultation.If spread then consult a dermatologist and get his opinion.Good luck.
