Do I have Herpes & `How is It Tested?

Ok It started with what looked like a pimple above my penis in the genital hair. I poped it like a zit and some puss came out...then 2 more grew around it and I also poped those two with the same result...they then shrunk for a few weeks and then they poped back up and again I poped them....they are now sortof small scabs...one keeps filling with puss tho....they have been there for 4 months now and do not seem to be healing any further....does this sound like herpes?
they were never clear blisters...sortof like I said like pimples....
I also never had any of the other symptoms of herpes....
Also how is herpes (genital) tested...and can I go to my walk in clinic or do I have to go to a special clinic?

Genital Herpes symptoms?

Hi bondo66412,

It doesn't sound like Genital Herpes, it would be sores, not just bumps and they wouldn't last for that long. I'm not sure what you have but it could be ingrown hair. Get it checked to be sure, though.

I would advise you to go to an std clinic rather than a regular doctor and get some tests done. The reason I prefer std clinics is that they are specialists.

Kidn regards,
