      are there any other marks like these ? and ive gotten sores from a raging yeast infection that lasted about 2-3 weeks so its possible it could be a yeast infection sore . but im not a doctor, and good thing you got it swabbed just in case

    how long did yours last, and does it hurt? I kind of had the same thing and it went away in a day with out me putting anything on it.

    I had something similar! Turned out to be a friction sore while I also had a bad yeast infection, but mine was like on my vulva and i tested negative for hsv-1 and 2. Either way though herpes starts off as fluid filled blisters and then ulcers after the blisters break and from what i understand you would have noticed those! , get tested just to be safe but dont stress because im sure youre fine!
