Do I have Herpes? :(

I have some sores in my groin area. They are not on my vagina but more in the crease of my groin and towards my bum. They're extremely painful and feel like burns. They aren't puss filled, more like open and they are perfectly round about the size of a one pence piece..they almost remind me of a popped blister on your foot. I noticed the first one yesterday but I now have more. I have looked at pictures of herpes and it doesn't look like it but could this be herpes??.. Thanks xx

    Poor you !

    Have you had body contact with a male in the last few days?

    Shower with plenty of luke warm water ,no soap and pat the area dry.

    Use clean new towels ,flannels ,sponges every time

    I would put some Sudacreme on the spots and se if that helps.

      Yeh I have but it's not the first time I've had sex with him. Absolute agony sad sudacreme is a good shout I think - because it genuinly feels like a burn or something. Thanks for the reply xx

    See a doctor and get tested for STD like herpes.  Stop guessing and wondering, find out for sure.

    Maybe, but its best to go see a doctor and get a test (take a swab) 

    I have hsv1 genitally and I know the feeling youre talking about, although outbreaks are somewhat different.. if its like small cuts down there it might be from a lot of/rough sex without enough lubrication.  

    For any case, I find using pure lavender essential oil dialuted with water works well, at least in stopping the irritation.  apparently geranium also works for herpes but I havent tried it. Im not a doctor so check first.
