Question:
I'm going to go see a doctor on Wednesday, and I fear I have something. I had unprotected sex with someone about 3 weeks ago, and noticed a small, oval shaped thing underneath the head of my penis. It doen't hurt or itch and is only slightly raised (minimal) When my penis is erect it has a whitish color to it. I've had a sore throat and headaches for past two days, but the spot is almost unnoticeable when limp. Any thoughts?

Answer:
Hi Devon,

The sore throat is not a symptom of herpes.
And....judging from your description, it doesn't sound like herpes to me....
The small oval shaped thing is a blister...? Sound like it's not... then it's something else... probably just a big pimple...?

Well... I think male folks will give you a better answer later, but...
You'll go see a doctor on Wednesday, right? Tell him/her that you had unprotected sex, and you suspect some kind of STD. Then, he/she will examine carefully, focusing on that.

Till then, try to relax. Worrying doesn't help anything, ok?<smile>

Best wishes...

Faith

Answer:
If you describe the 'small oval shape thing' more, We could maybe make a better guess for you?

Is it smooth? bumpy? one bump, or many small bumps that formed one oval bump?

Puss filled?

Does it look more like a blister, or more like a pimple?

Answer:
Well, its small and oval shaped. It is pinkish in color, and gets whitish when erect or stimulated. It has no pus, and is not filled with anything. It is only slightly raised and there is only one of them.
