Tender Inguinal Lymph Nodes On Palpitation. Could It Be Due To STD?
I just noticed that both my inguinal lymph nodes are tender on palpation . It worries me because i also have noticed a small pimple on the shaft of my penis, i usually get acne on my penis, but with the tender inguinal lymph nodes as well, its getting me quite worried. I had sex about a month ago with a stranger, could it be that i might have picked up an STD ??? please help, im really concerned and worried

hello sir,
Tender inguinal lymph nodes with lesion on the penis should not be ignored.The history of sex with a stranger is also significant.Hence it is advisable for you to visit a venerologist and get examined.
All the best
