I think most people are describing folliculitis. Do some googling and I think you'll start to see similarities.

i was diagnosed with shingles today and it seems very similar to what u described. It's a herpetic infection that derives from chicken pox. If uve had the chicken pox the virus stays in your body for the rest of your life and with the combination of a weakened immune system and stress shingles can develop. That's how the doctor explained it to me. He kind of freaked me out calling it a herpetic infection but it's not sexually transmitted. Antibiotics are used to treat it and it's supposed to clear up fairly quickly with the antibiotics

Hi, Like you. I am now also experiencing this on my Left thigh near my butt. at first, it was not hurting at all until 2 days past. It hurts so much that i can't walk properly and sit comfortably. sometimes when I try to lie down on the bed, it also hurts. But what I found out was when I was bathing, It didn't hurt anymore. after getting dried up, it came back. So what I did is i tried to put cold compress in it and it really did not hurt. No bleedings yet and I'm scared that it might happen since it looks the same to me.

i'm only 14 and i think i might have it.:'( i've also never had any sexual intercorse and mine are a little different. they are just little red bumps on my inner thighs that really only bother me when i'm wearing shorts. at first i thought they were just stretch marks because i'm on the pudgy side, but stretch marks aren't supposed to hurt, right? they never bleed or have anything white in the middle, but they're very uncomfortable and i'm sorta afraid to talk to my male doctor about it.

Yikes! I just broke out with this acne like rash all over my body after a weekend of snowboarding I don't know what exactly caused it but it sounds exactly like what M.And was describing. It started as big red bumps but didn't itch then the bumps turned white on top and became more painful. One of them started bleeding and it was really dark. I put antibiotic ointment on some of them but it did not seem to help. I am sexually active but am positive it has nothing to do with that since the majority of it is on my shins where my snowboard boots were covering and on my stomach around my belly button. It may have something to do with my long johns irritating my skin but I have never had this happen and I have worn the same gear every time I have gone snowboarding for the past three years (not that I go often) I am hoping it is some bacterial thing that will go away with acne medication because I can't go to the Dr. I didn't read all of the posts but has anyone ever gotten rid of this without going to the Dr.?

Please go to the hospital! Many online sources don't show you that pimple like rash near your legs and butt can be a sign of strep in your bloodstream I am 18 years old as well and was hospitalized for a week and a half for TSS but if they found the rash sooner I would of been better more quickly

This may be an abcess (Perianal abscess). I had one they are painful. I could not set or walk or move. You need to see a physician and possibly a surgeon. Once its taken care of you will feel much feel much better. They can be caused by tight clothing that cannot beath, an oil gland that is infected or a few other causes

Please, please, please go see a doctor! There is absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about by seeing a professional. Trust me, in the medical profession, we have seen it all and you shouldn't worry about someone judging you about why you are there. It would be better to know what is causing your problems and treat it (even if it is something bad) than to ignore it and "hope" it goes away. You are young and, as a nurse, I would hate to see anything bad come of this because it wasn't looked into.
