after reading through others posts, WARNING MORE GRAPHIC THAN USUAL IMAGERY.

freaking out and unable to get an appt until the 22nd. had incredibly rough sex, the most of the sex itself actually hurt. when i got up to pee after, i could barely walk i was so sore and it BURNED (like acid!) to pee and only droplets came out.

is this a primary herpes outbreak? is there any chance it's just lesions or sores from friction?!image

    That looks extremely painful. I'm sorry but it might be herpes, try to get it swabbed. I'm no doctor it might also be something else like bacterial infection. You really need to see a doctor!

    But normally you get symptoms a few days after infection, not right after sex. Did you have sex the days before you got symptoms?

    Please update us when you have seen a doctor. You need to have it swabbed when the sores are still present. Believe me you should get this done asap for your peace of mind. Herpes is a bit difficult to diagnose when no sores are there.
