Hi, Really worried I might have contracted herpes. Have attached photos, I did just have a wax so not sure if that could have an effect.

    Waxing can irritate the skin and cause an outbreak as can shaving. It does look like herpes but don’t let us diagnose you, go to the doctor and get it swabbed asap since that’s the only way you’ll know for sure. Best of luck

    Actually it looks to be herpes. Just get swabbed ASAP before they go. 

    It is mostly herpes if painful or itchy.
