I took a very hot bath either last week Sunday or Monday and it had menthol I felt discomfort a few days later and these bumps started to form. They are painful, and a little itchy. But I also had sexual contact with someone 4 or 5 days beforehand. The partner said they did not have any symptoms. More bumps started to develop over the last two days... Do I have herpes?

that does look like herpes, especially if it hurts. I would get swabbed ASAP

Unless I got to the emergency room, I have to wait until Thursday... what about it makes you believe that it is herpes?

The Doctor did an exam and does not think it is herpes, sent me home with antibiotics to clear up the infection. I was diagnosed with Folliculitis. Thank you everyone for your opinions.
