Help! I'm not sure if I have an std or its something else.

Posted , 2 users are following.

So I recently just lost my boyfriend, we dated for about a year and he's the only person I've had any sexual contact with this past year. All of a sudden I have little bumps around my vagina and they hurt really bad, I've been ready a lot of online articles and at first I though it was something minor but now i don't know because at first it was just one but now its a couple and they're spread out. I tried using hot compression but that didn't help at all. They hurt worse now. I got the first one about a week ago.

The reason I mentioned my boyfriend and I breaking up is because I don't know if it could also be something caused by stress.

The bumps are fairly small and I thought they were just pimples at first but they got bigger and more painful and now after I did the compression they kinda scabbed over. They aren't really white like herpes but I'm also not sure. Can anybody help?

    Mine weren't white like pimples either .

    They open red like sores . It all differs for different people if I were you I would go get a swab ASAP because a blood test isn't as accurate .

    And scabbing / peeling is also a sign of it .

    What kind of pain are you having ? If you don't mind being more specific.

    Pain while walking , sitting ? Urinating ? Any discharge ?

      Well hopefully soon but my mom won't take me. She's not exactly supportive. I've told her I need to go and she ignores me. So I'm not sure what to do.
