Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have a small little pimple and I am worried if it could herpes. I have not had sex in about two months and I always used a condom. I never had unprotected sex in my life, but I have seen this little red spot and I am worried if it can be an STD.
Please guide.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have noted your concern and I have viewed the images (attachment removed to protect patient identity). No, it is not herpes. Genital herpes usually presents with multiple, grouped, fluid-filled lesions or genital sores which are quite painful.
Thank you.

Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Yes, it is most likely a pimple or an acne due to a blocked gland. I suggest you use a topical antibiotic such as Neosporin ointment or Mupirocin ointment 2 %, twice daily.
Thank you.
