i have had a small cluster of bumbs (not oozy or anything) just dry bumps - they look sort of warty though.... on my inner thigh close to my butt for about two months now. i dont understand, at first i thought, okay i have herpes. but, its not going away or progressing in any manner... i looked at A LOT of photos of herpes and this doesnt look like that... i also read a little about HPV....
whats going on here???
i have an appt with my OB in a few weeks....
HPV would be localized to the vaginal canal and herpes would tend to be vesicular, painful, ooze fluid and then resolve so it could be some kind of fungal infection. I'm happy to hear you do have an appt. with an OB/GYN who will more than likely be able to diagnose it on the spot or arrange for the appropriate tests.
