    I would get a doctor to take a look. Was it unprotected sex? Has your partner been tested? Do you trust them? It could be herpes looking at it but only a doctor would be the appropriate way to go from here I think! Good luck honey. Xxx

    It’s always a good idea to have a check up.

    Hi Jane

    It looks a bit like Herpes. Go and get it swabbed to confirm. You should do this as soon as possible.

    Hi Jane, that does look a bit like herpes but you're best to get a doctor to look at it anyway. All the best x
