Sexual Health
Posted: 05-14-06 20:20pm

I had protected sex with a woman about a month ago. About 10 days later a had some redness around the base of my penis with some itching but it only lasted about 2 days. Then about 2 weeks later I got some redness and itchiness around the base of my penis again but this time it lasted about 5 days. Each time this happened I shaved down their a couple of days before and I also am very active by playing sports and running so I was wondering if that could be the cause but I never really had something like this before. While searching the internet I read that itchiness and redness can be symptoms of herpes but I never had any sores or blisters. What do you think this could be?

If the sex was protected and you have no other symptoms I would say it's unlikely to be herpes, but no protection is 100%.

Well, stop shaving and see if it goes away
