Confused about what this may be
Posted , 3 users are following.
So I had sex with a new partner about 5 days ago, we used a condom and he did say he was totally clean (though I know this can be spread without there being any lesions and most people don't even know they have it)
This morning I woke up and the bottom of my labia right next to the opening to my vagina was a bit swollen. I have been looking at really closely and I can just see about two kinda circular open spots on it. I have HSV1 and I know what it feels like before I get a cold sore (gets all tingly and feels like I have a fat lip then I can see the clusters). I haven't felt anything like this at all. It aches a little bit but I have also been messing with it and staring at and having to stretch the skin to see what it looks like. It doesn't itch and feels more like raw skin if I touch it pain-wise.
The only other thing I was thinking is the day before this happened I was wearing underwear that was super irritating on that area for hours and there was heat so maybe it was just irritated. I feel like I'm grasping at straws and the circular lesions are freaking me out. I can't go get it swabbed in the 24-48 window and I am panicking about having to wait 12 weeks to find out if I have something.
It doesn't seem to match what I see on the internet, since it is just a bit red in that area but I know herpes can be different on everyone. What do you guys think?

That doesn't immune from that .
If you have type 2 , you are immune from type one after 4+ months

Your body has created anti bodies against the virus over time, to offer some type of defense. BUT you do realize there are people who have BOTH type 1 and type 2 BOTH gentially right?
