Risk of STI with rash in genital and swollen LYMPHNODE.

Resolved question:
Engaged in risky sexual activity 4 days ago. Have experienced itchy genitals since then. Yesterday I noticed a swollen lymph node (and a smaller bump near it). Today I noticed that I have a rash / cut of some sort on the under side of my genital area. Please see attached images for further information. Please let me know my STI / STD risk. Thank you.

Hello

Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com

I can understand your concern.

This seems to be candidial intertrigo, which is a yeast infection caused more often due to conditions of heat and humidity.

It doesn't seem to be a std right now.

Application of clotrimazole cream twice a day would be helpful.

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Regards.

Hello again,

Thanks for your reply.

It doesn't look like chancroid at present atleast.

It looks like a candidial intertrigo.
