Hello, I am extremely anxious and about the have a meltdown I have had this rash for the last couple of weeks. It comes and goes and now it is getting worst. I am afraid this is herpes. I have been to many doctors and none will swab me saying it does not remotely look like herpes. It is getting worst. I want to go to the doctors but with the corona virus happening I cannot get in and am afraid I will be dismissed if I go to urgent care.

I have had various rashes before but this is the worst It started yesterday and has not gotten worst. There are no blisters, (yet ) at least. Slight Itch randomly, and only sore to touch.

I do not know if it was caused my underwear yesterday or the Pad I was wearing shortly, I do know I had a similar red spots last week as well that kept going away

Is this herpes. Or contact dermatitis I really do not know what to do. image

    Hey, So I have some questions

    Have you used any new soaps or products on your vagina?

    Have you shaved or waxed recently?

    Have you had unprotected sex recently?

    Do you have swollen lymph nodes in your groin area?

    When you squeeze a bump do you see a clear fluid come out?

    I am learning herpes looks different for everyone and unfortunately your pictures look somewhat similar to what I was experiencing. I did not get the big blisters or fluid sores, mine was a very fine rash or fine bumps that if you look closely it was a cluster of small fluid blisters. I notice you have your period which is also prime for an outbreak.

    But please do not stress it may not be herpes at all. I am not a doctor. I know it might take you sometime to get test because of Corona so just 1. do not touch it too much and wash your hands after. 2. Apply vasciline or teatree oil mix with coconut oil you have any on it.
