Do I herpes?!?

Posted , 11 users are following.

About two weeks ago, I had sex with an old flame and was very sore. i had shaved that day so i didn't think much of it. A week later, I thought I had a friction burn from my underwear. Flash forward to Monday, i noticed a patch of skin missing and my skin felt painful. I also noticed a few bumps which i thought were from shaving. life was playing a cruel joke and I started my period and was forced to wear a pad which further aggravated my situation and caused. It also caused my clitoral hood to scab. I also noticed the skin around my anus was swollen. i went to doctor and was both swabbed and blood tested, but now I'm waiting for my results.

the doctor couldn't 100% diagnose me from a visual check. she put me on an antibiotic and anti-viral, just in case. someone help! picture was taken today

      that's what my doctor said. she couldn't confidently diagnose me solely on a visual check so she swabbed me. i won't get my results back for a few days. the waiting really sucks!

    it's hard to diagnose I thought I had a flare up but the doctor couldn't tell if it was a shaving spot or herpes .

    I've herpes anyway but sometimes I get bumps from.shaving .

    only way I know I'm having a sore come up is the stinging the stinging is intense and before the stinging I get hot rod stab pains in my.boobs or bum cheeks .

    hope it's not herpes wouldn't wish it on anyone .
