Hi, so recently I noticed there's mutiple sores near my vaginal opening and in my vagina. I've had it for a few days thinking it would go away on its own, but it's gotten more painful. I can't even touch it without it hurting. I'm super worried it might be herpes or any kind of STD, but I've been in a monogamous relationship for two years. So, I'm not completely sure what it came from or how I got it. They look like the canker sores you get in your mouth. Please help me.

    Not sure what that could be. You need to go and see your doctor or nurse to get a diagnosis and treatment if needed. The sooner you are seen the better as you may be worrying about nothing. Take care and keep in touch.

    I agree with Lynn. See a doctor as soon as possible. If it is getting worse you don't want to leave it.

    Does your partner get oral cold sores? Because someone with the virus that causes cold sores (HSV-1) can transmit the virus through oral contact with another person's genitals, anus, or mouth, even if they don't have sores that are visible at the time.
