hi everyone

im waiting to find time to go get tested but was hoping to get some community thoughts in the meantime.

does this look like a genital herpes outbreak?

i had a cold sore on my mouth a couple weeks ago but it cleared up within 4 days. i since felt some bumps on my vagina but thouhht they were ingrown hairs or irritation but it doesnt seem like that anymore

at the same time this has been 2 weeks and nothing has burst or scabbed theyve just remained the same. no itching or pain but tonight feels a little inflamed

i had a yeast infection a while back that im not sure cleared up? i also have HPv i think

i havent been sexually active in months but i did receive oral sex a week before i received a cold sore and about 2 weeks before i noticed these bumps. He didnt seem to be infected with a cold sore at the time and i was pretty run down in general

my googling leads me to believe this could be herpes but then i know how commonly this things can be mistaken. would welcome any thiughts File size is too bigimageFile size is too big
