Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had unprotected sex in march and now its june and I have a bump in the pubic hair on my vagina, I don't have clusters of bumps. I've had one then I shaved and the second one showed up, it's been here for about 3wks and now its just starting to go away. I've had staph before but for some reason I dont feel like its staph. The bump looks like a pimple. I also have a hard bump on my inner thigh that feels like a boil. Could this be herpes?

Hi, I understand your query. The bump you have in pubic hairs seems to be hair root infection,possibly contacted due to shaving. - You keep the area clean & dry, apply antibiotic ointment / take oral antibiotics available over the counter / with your doctors advise after examination.It should go over a weeks time. -If it does not, consult a skin specialist . It can be can be staphilococcal infection. The diagnosis will be after skin swab testing for culture & sentivity& treated accordingly. Thanks.
