    if u got tested u should wait for your results herpes can look like that but so can other things like fungal amd bacterial skin issues are common in the folds of the skin around the genitals thus causing tearing and paper cuts

      i know im just so scared. it seems like its one thing after another. The cut is already healing, its basically gone over night.... if it was herpes would it take longer to heal and scab over ??
