I’m currently living overseas in Greece for 6 months and have developed these sores on my penis shaft. They are painless, and often not itchy. I am feeling slightly concerned as I don’t know what the exact cause of them are.
I seen the dermatologist here who wasn’t exactly sure what it was and prescribed me some topical cream. I’ve been using this for 5 days and so far it isn’t working.
By the looks of things from Google it doesn’t seem like an STI. But I am starting to get worried as they’ve been there for nearly 3 weeks. If anybody has had experience with this before or could give advice it would be appreciated! Thank you

It could very well be genital herpes. Valtrex is a great treatment, but a doctor has to prescribe it and confirm that you have genital herpes first. Do you have discomfort or pain from the sores? Also I would get a full panel of STD tests.
