I have had this for a few weeks and have made an appointment to get checked but it is months away unless i can get a space at an emergency drop in clinic. i have barely been eating or sleeping because i'm so scared. do you think this is herpes?

    it looks more skin related or something else is causing it ...even if was herpes it really is not as bad as u think and nothing to worry over alot of people have genital herpes and live a perfectly normal life
