Does this look like herpes or yeast infection sores ?

Posted , 170 users are following.

imageI was with a guy for a year, 7 months ago I went and got checked for STDS. I came back positive for chlamydia. Me and him didnt last too much longer after that. Two weeks ago i got checked again and was cleared, but the doctor said i had a roaring yeast infection. I also had sex with an old friend 2 days prior to that. After i got checked i had unprotected sex with him again a couple weeks after. The sex was rough and my vagina was hurting felt torn. We had sex saturday so when monday came i was still feeling sore i checked and seen i had an ulcer. Over the next few days I got another one and there so painful. I was feeling sick like my whole body was sore, chills, head cold etc. I want to know does this look like yeast infection sores or herpes im so scared ?? im also leaking a lot of watery discharge it looks white while it comes out but when i wipe its yellow ?image

    omg guys i never thought id find pictures with sores that look EXACTLY like mine... all the ones from google were always iffy. im getting tested for HSV tomorrow and im still really scared . im so happy a lot of yours turned out to just be yeast (since its a lot more manageable and not incurable)

    however, one of my male partners is breaking out SUPER bad on his groin with these sores allll over it. did any of your partners catch the infection as well? im wondering if it is yeast if he could have gotten it too

    I had what I thought was an ingrown hair after shaving 2x within 3 days. it popped like a pimple but I continued to mess with it until it weeped and was serverly irritatedimage. I was also having the beginning symptoms of a yeast infection from being on pennicillin for strep. they doctor thought it was either a bacterial infection or yeast infection but I had her swab anyways and do a blood test.

    any thoughts?image

    I last had an unprotected sex in August 2019. That was still my last sex till now because I angrily had to quit sex after been diagnosed of visible genital warts. I had them removed. Early this month I started applying raw 5% acv directly on my genitalia with cotton tips hoping that it will prevent the warts from coming back. Now, after apply the acv morning and night for about a week, I noticed tiny clear fluid-like boils similar to the one in this picture, looking closely u will see the healing part adjacent and below to this present symptom. I stopped applying the acv, A week later, another one appeared looking like the old one, it ruptured and gave me a serious wound with no itching but mild pain only when I press on it. My dermatologist yelled at me and asked me to apply mupurocin bid to it, that according to the history I gave it isn't herpes. Now, it looked to have been healing just yesterday another symptom appeared again close to the old one (first image). This morning it got worse(second picture). It doesn't itch, no pain unless I press on them. Now am seriously worried if this is still the results of acv burn after I had stopped applying them 1week ago. Am becoming more concerned about herpes. Initially there were no fever, no muscle aches, no sore throat but I felt my groin lymph node increased a littleeee but you can't see it unless one searches for it. As of today, the little I felt it might had enlarged is no more there with this new presentation. Remember I have not had sex again since August 2019. I wear tight fitting underwears and clothing too.

    I need your thoughts please
