Please, upload an image for review!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

You have forgotten to attach the image. I will suggest that you do so. This will allow me to inspect the image and provide a personalized and helpful response to you. The time line and description of symptoms make it most unlikely to be anything herpes or warts. However, I will come back with more insights after reviewing the images.

To upload an image, click on the upload icon to the right of your dashboard and follow the onscreen instructions. You may also send it directly to customer service at YYYY@YYYY and request that it should be uploaded to your query.

I hope to hear from you and promise to respond promptly. Until next, I wish you well.

Brief Answer:
This is not herpes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the images.

I have reviewed them fully and they are not suggestive of herpes. this is probably a superficial minor skin reaction. Apply nothing to it for now and observe only. Healjng would be spontaneously within 1-2weeks and you should exercise this patience.

Keep me updated about this. if anything else comes up, kindly inform me for evaluation and more suggestions.
