Problem: The client is a 28-year-old stockbroker who visits his primary care health provider. He reports he recently took his first true vacation in over five years, spending two full weeks at a ski resort. During his stay at the resort, he met and became intimately involved with an attractive 25-year-old woman. They engaged in sexual intercourse several times during this vacation. A few days after returning to his office, the client developed painful, itchy sores on the shaft of his penis. He also experienced low grade fever, headache, malaise, myalgias, and some inguinal lymphadenopathy. His symptoms clear up after two weeks and he began to feel far better.
