HELP IM WORRIED. Is this Herpes, BV or Yeat infrection sore or Friction burn

Posted , 4 users are following.

hi so i get yeast infections from time to time, i also shave down there excessively and due to that i get ingrown hair/razor bumps. Im also sexually active and lately ive been using fragrant soap down there. I noticed I get these kind of bumps when i started wearing these brand of pads on the first month of November this year. The first time ive had an itching sensation on my outter vag lips and bumps appeared. Due to scratching cuts appeared but after my cycle ended and i stopped wearing the pads the itching and irritated sensation stopped. Fast forward to the first week of December my cycle started i used the pads again and the itchy sensation came back but came back with 2 bumps that turned into a blister/cuts because of scratching It gave a stinging sensation when i touched it and when i urinate. My cycle ended 3 days ago ive stopped wearing the pads and the itching sensarion stopped but the blisters/cuts left scars. it doesnt hurt it looks like its healing. Do anyone know what this is? i have an appointment on the 20th. Hopefully im negative with all my tests. The day before my period started i did had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. Btw im not using the fragrant soap anymore imageimageimageimageimage

    Hi, it's hard to tell. It can be yeast sores related to your hormonal cycle. The best would be to have a swab test before they heal.

      I was trying to get a testing earlier like sometime next week but the only available day my doctor office had left was the 20th. The week before my period i did experienced a yeast infection. i was out of town so during my trip my diet was really poor ive was a eating a whole lot of greasy and sodium foods, bread too then it was around the time i was using fragrant soap down there as well. And i did had a smell down there one time during my yeast infection. It was like a damp wet smell, It wasnt a really foul smell but it didnt smell like roses either. I have a history of BV and yeast infections. The scar is healing very quickly. It doesnt hurt anymore by touch. And i can use the bathroom with ease

      UPDATE the scars healed and disappearing. Its back to my skin color. Everything is back looking normal down there. I havent experienced the itching since or the irritating buring sensation. I really think it was an allergic reactions to the sanitary pads i wore or just like you said yeast sores.
