subject: Genital Herpes on the Penis - How to Tell if you Have Genital Herpes [print this page] For a man, finding anything 'wrong' or unusual on the penis can be very troubling. With all the scare stories and rumours that abound about sexually transmitted disease, and especially genital herpes, penis lesions, sores or spots can cause a range of reactions in men.
Some will be scared enough to go straight to a doctor, but still more will try to ignore the symptoms, in the vain hope they might sort themselves out and go away by themselves.
Here's some information on genital herpes that men should know. What men need to know is that finding any sorts of sore, rash or blister on the penis can be a very serious matter. If you aren't at risk of sexually transmitted diseases (in a committed relationship, or not currently engaging in sexual activity) even though the chances are very small, you should still have yourself checked out by doctor.
If you are currently sexually active, then it is even more important to get checked for genital herpes. Penis blisters, sores, rashes, or scabs, as well as a sore tender groin, flu like symptoms such as headache and unusual fatigue, and pain when urinating are all very common symptoms of a whole range of conditions, but they are also strong traits of genital herpes.
The moral to this tale is, if you are a man and having strange things happening with your penis, you need to swallow your pride, get over the embarrassment, do whatever it is you have to do, but you NEED to get yourself checked for genital herpes.
