Insect bite or herpes?

Question

Last night I was camping on an island where there was an over-abundance of mosquitos, horseflys, other insects. I slept outside (no sleeping bag) and was drunk so pulled my tools out more then 8-10 times to urinate. I went to the bathroom this morning and realized a good-sized flesh-colored bump on my right t******e. It doesn't itch or anything, I'm just concerned and have no medical insurance to go get it looked at.

Answer 1

It's a bite. Herpes, especially the first outbreak, comes in clusters not just a single sore.

But just to make sure, when is the last time you had a sexual encounter? An outbreak will occur 7-10 days afterwards.

Also, quit picking at it..that is counterproductive nomatter what it is.

Good luck, and remember always use protection. I know..it doesn' t feel as good, but we gotta get over it there are scary infections out there!

Herps drain, bites do not
