The lumps have been discharging purulent fluid since the evening of the previous day. He had a shallow, painless lesion on his penis 3 weeks ago, but was too embarrassed to seek medical attention; it has resolved in the meantime. There is no personal or family history of serious illness. He has smoked one pack of cigarettes daily for 12 years. He is sexually active with multiple male partners and uses condoms inconsistently. His temperature is 38.0°C (100.4°F). Examination of his groin shows multiple masses discharging pus. The remainder of the examination shows no abnormalities.
