HELP :(
Posted , 10 users are following.
I shaved a few days ago and started getting this small patch of white bumps on my vagina lip. They cause discomfort and itch, i have only been with 1 person since i last went to my obgyn and he swears he is clean. This has never happened to me, i was told it could be follicullitis from using a old razor or from a yeast infection. Im paranoid and scared that this is worse, i also can not see a doctor until June due to covid-19, i am crying and stressed!!! also, there are no ulcers and it is just that patch on one side.

Pretty much looks like herpes vesicles/blisters. They appear to be on the skin surface. Do they contain clear fluid? Do they itch, tingle and burn? If they are herpes vesicles they will soon burst and turn to pitted ulcers, then crust and heal. This is actually the best time to get them swabbed.

@mhc2020 Im really scared reading your reply 😦 could he have barely passed it to me? last time i was with him was 2 weeks ago. I shaved a few days ago and then got these bumps. I hope it isnt herpes but yes they do itch and they dont burn when i pee.

Hi there
This does look like an outbreak if I am very honest with you.
It only takes one person to pass it on. Who said it could be follicullitis as the way you are presenting seems clustered blisters which is typical of a herpes outbreak. They look to be fluid filled also.
Are they still itchy and causing discomfort?

@kay19801 Im really scared and cant even see a doctor due to everything going on... Yes they are itchy and causing discomfort. They have been there for about 3 days.

@geneva96639 - I understand how upsetting this may be for you & the situation the whole world is facing right now.
The only thing I would suggest is not to be scared
I assume that the area is getting red and inflammed also?

@kay19801 yes It is a little inflamed on one side where those bumps are but they look a bit smaller today...

It looks like standard herpes. Even if you were with him 2 weeks ago outbreaks can show up within 2-20 days. months or even years if its in a dormant phase. Everything will be fine, start looking up natural remedies to help with the pain since you cant access a doctor right now for mediciation. Hope you heal soon. Also if he said he is clean he might be telling the truth, most men are silent carriers which means he is infected but doesnt know it bc he never displayed any symptoms. Or he can just be an a**hole and be lying. Guess we will never know. Most doctors dont add herpes to an std panel thats why its so many ppl w it

I made a appointment and they called me and said they were no longer taking people for a few weeks due to a spike in covid-19 where i live. Today, the bumps are going away and did not turn into ulcers, i have a appointment with my obgyn but, until June. Im feeling a bit better i was at a low yesterday and shouldnt have said that but i already battle with depression and i feel like this is going to set me back. Im hoping for the best but prepared for the worst.

Actually then it might not have been herpes. If the bumps are going away and it didnt pop it may have been something else. And I understand i deal with depression too is not easy but I think about my family and a better day. I know there will be better days and i look forward to that. If you need someone to talk to you can send me a message

Im hoping it isnt herpes but who really knows! ill just have to wait and find out. The bumps arent turning into ulcers they went down and are going away, they dont burn either when i pee. My main concern is just how i am swollen. Im starting to think i may have used a old or dirty razor and gave myself a infection or something. Thank you for the help! i will definitely give a update once i go to the doctor and find out forsure. Wish you all the best in health. 😃

Yes there is a possibility it could of been fungal etc. What is that slice cut ? it looks painful. Apply something antibacterial so it can heal.

Oh that isnt my picture i dont have any cuts, hopefully it was something fungal and nothing serious im still going to get tested just to confirm. That does look very painful, @hanna29053 was that a bump before it turned raw?
