Im not entirely sure what this is and have looked up pictures of genital herpes, but nothing looks similar. it does burn when my urine comes in contact with it. I've been using witch hazel on it and its much better than it was. image

    Im afraid it looks like herpes. Im not a MD but i would get it swabbed and test & start anti virals asap. Ive been on this site some time and saw diff cases. Not all herpes look the same everyone reacts different. Some get just sores some blisters, some both. Some people have raw areas filled with pus etc Either way confirm with your doctor what is really is.

      unfortunately right now I dont believe i'll be able to see a dr, the offices arent letting people in due to this coronavirus. Im trying to get in with the doctor as soon as possible.
