So my boyfriend and I usually have rough sex, he gets tested every month for work and I've had a problem before with the sores which came up after shaving? They look almost Ile canker sores and there are multiple of them. I don't know how to upload a picture but I'm very nervousi t could be herpes . My next appointmentf or the gynecologist isn't until two months.

    Also i don't have anything near the labia and nothing seems to blister. I looked it up on Google and the only thing it does look like is a herpes open sore .I'm so nervous and I don't know what to do. When I urinate it doesn't burn anything and it's slightly uncomfortable

      Could be herpes. The lesions, once ulcerated, do tend to look like oral canker sores. Depending on the type of skin where they appear, lesions can next to immediately bypass the bump/blister phase. Where are you getting lesions, if not on your labia?

      Painful urination is not a definite symptom for everyone. A tendency for the issue to recur, and after aggravation (like shaving), could be indicative of herpes.

      If you have lesions now, go to a doc or STD clinic and have them looked at and swabbed asap. Makes no sense to wait two months just because that's when you next have your gyno appt! Also, your partner gets tested monthly? For HSV??

      P.S. Not everything is herpes, however. Could also be a staph infection from shaving. Either way, you should have the lesions swabbed while they are still new.
