I have red pimple like sores on my body. not quite like boils. they hurt when you touch them. they come to head and then heal when opened. I feel tired when I get them. it seems like they come in pairs of two, about 5 or less inchs apart. what could they be? I have been test for hiv and am negative.

if they are red all around the edges, and how your explaining they look and hurt, and being tired ... i think you might want to go to the doctor to get tested for a staph infection.Staphylococci are normal inhibitants of the skin and nasal cavity but sometimes the staphylococci become pathogenic and cause common boils ( like red around the edges, but when you look at it the middle has a whitehead in it), other skin infections and posoperative wounds. There are strains of staph that can be antibiotic resistant. Like right now you need to make an appointment to see a doctor, he/she will give you antibiotics then you should throw away your shavers, wash your sheets in hot water and take any other cleaning precaution because once you get staph i swear it comes back at least once a year

they sound like shingles, you likely need to see a doctor for treatment.
