Hi, I have a red raw lesion on my outer labia. It is agonisingly painful. I've had it for almost a week now, I went to the docs on Friday who advised me to go to the sexual health clinic; which I'm booked in on Tuesday. Tonight I have been violently Sick and am still feeling really nauseous. I have swollen lymph nodes and I really do expect on Tuesday for them to tell me I have herpes. I feel disgusting, I have been in a faithful 4 year relationship and have two children under two. I feel dirty and feel like I have let my family down. Anyone have the same problem???

      Yep there's just one and it just looks red raw, not necessarily pus but it's not dry.

    Well it may or may not be it. So until your visit, drink water and avoid alcohol, peanuts and chocolate. Yogourt vegetables meat is good. Get lots of rest. Hope you feel better soon'
