Anyone getting these?

Posted , 22 users are following.

I keep getting these and they go away. I read that it's associated with herpes but could also be associated with yeast which I know I have yeast right now and a bacterial infection. These come and go pretty quickly. I can't find it now. Also a picture of what I look like but I think my inflammation is going down since I took the yeast medication this morning. The only time I am "irritated" right now is when I start to have the discharge and then I am bothered otherwise as long as I am dry I seem to be fine. I was against posting pictures online but if it can help others then so be it. Also I have found a website with a ton of women who get cuts and yeast and have no stds so it seems like it is more common than I initially expected but of course after a new sexual encounter the only thing I can think of is worse case scenario stds. Just curious if anyone else with herpes though is getting this? It seems most on this forum are not really from what I could find.

    Fyi, I have just read on the Westover Heights Q&A forum with GH expert Terri Warren that paper-cut lesions are not typical of a first GH outbreak, especially if you've not had oral cold sores in the past. First GH outbreaks usually present with more typical lesions. I'll message you the link.

      I had test results come as positive for HPV. HPV doesn't effect men as much as women and for 90% of those who have it, it will go away naturally within 18 months, however, I had a LLETZ procedure to remove mine. It is a very common surgery and all went well. I have not received any of these fissures since
