First genital herpes outbreak!! Help

Posted , 4 users are following.

I'm a 23 year old female and I just went to the gyn 9/11/17 because the pain was too severe. I've never had an STD or STI so this is all new to me. I haven't been diagnosed yet (waiting for test results) but after a heavy amount of research, I'm pretty certain I have herpes and the doctor seemed to think so as well. I was and still am shocked because my sexual activity was with another female. There was no oral involved, just fingering and grinding... So how is this possible? I don't engage in sex with me but, she does. My main concern right now is when will this agony go away? This is about day 5 since I've started experiencing the symptoms and this is day 2 of taking 800mg ibuprofen that I've been prescribed which doesn't help with the pain from the blisters or whatever they are and hell I go through every time I urinate. I find out in a few days what I'm actually diagnosed with but I don't go back to the doctor until 6 days from now... What can I do to relieve the pain? Is it almost over?

    Are u near a Walmart?? They have tea tree oil it helps me I mix it with coconut oil and it numbs my tingle and stops the itch for a while. Acv mixed with water on a cotton ball stings but it's supposed to help. I didn't have any sores when I was tingly so I never tried that one been drinking it in my green tea not sure if it's helping or not the garlic def is for me I think. Try a few things out I used  all these things on poison ivy and they gave me relief so they are good for a lot of different skin issues. Hope this helps!
