Do I have genital herpes? *pic*

I have an appt with my gyno on Monday, but I'm a little freaked out by all of this and want someone's opinion.  This picture is after 5 days of burning and severe itching.  The itching and burning has subsided since then, but for a few days I had trouble walking and even getting in my vehicle.

Last week I was dealing with a hemorroid and severe itching. I probably should not have scratched, but I did. Five days ago, after a trip to the gym there was severe itching on my butt crack (for lack of a better word), and I see this type of infection occurr. I've never experienced this before, and have only slept with one person for the last 8 years. I am hoping it's some type of yeast infection because of prolonged use of sweaty clothes, but I am deadly scared that it is herpes that has lay dormant for years. It's odorless, and the discharge is more of a greenish color. It is right in the butt crack, and it doesn't hurt when using the restroom. Please help. Thanks.

    Can't give much advice because I'm not sure what that is. Never saw anything leak so much fluid like that before. Just going to have to wait and see what the doctor says. Best of luck.

    Hello, I had a lots of fluid leaking from the blisters. It was very painful couldn't drive, sit properly I found it extremly emotional but it doesn't look like herpes so not really what it is. I did find my gyni didn't know much about gh bit the sexual health nurse new more.

      It's a scary feeling not knowing what's going on with your body. Thank you for the reply.

      Hi Mel

      I'm not a doctor but did the antibiotics help at all? If there was itching down there it's possible to have a yeast or bacteria (bv) infection. If there is any pain with urination it can also be an urinary tract infection.

      Btw the cut could come from unconscious scratching and I cannot see the picture very well
