after some funk has developed - due to a RAPE - i have red sores all in my pubic hair that have begun to spread to my "lips" & upper inner thighs. one doc said it was perhaps HPV, aother perhaps herpes...i am oveseas so it is hard to find a good doc.
i just went to the equilvalent, i guess, of a planned parenthood clinic i.e. all free, all about sex, aids, babymaking, & stds. the lady took one good look with a mag glass & good light & said it was molluscm (MCV).
i am to treat it with a cleaner & cream & in one week shave it all off (god is it gonna hurt - i used to keep it well waxed down there - but after these creatures i ain't about to put a razor near them, but apparently i have to), so yeah, shave my pubes & then go to have all the bumps (there are a lot) popped or something like that.
anyone have a similar exp or know anything please!!!!
IN PAIN

You let a doctor diagnose you on site alone? no culture of the area, blood test, or biopsy? I hope you can locate another doctor. Why on earth would you shave that area in a week? Even if it is molluscum you can spread that by shaving.

Molluscum does not cause sores.

first, i hope you did the right thing after getting raped and reported it and also went to a hospital for a rape kit. they test you for std's they take a sample of semen for prosecution and stuff like that. for 2, sounds like the dr over there is on crack! you cant diagnose ANYTHING with only visual diagnosis, and no dr in their right mind would tell ANYONE w/sores and bumps to shave over them and pop them. shoot, you arent even supposed to pop pimples!

cont from above, you REALLY need to go to a good doctor, preferably a gynecologist and have a full exam, if ones not available, go to the hospital, but please, see someone else besides that crappy doctor!
