    see your gyn as soon as possible. it looks like herpes. once on medication it will resolve in a few days

      I do not see anything that resembles warts but this does look like herpes to me... but there are other things it could be and there is no way to visually tell.. You need a swab to know for sure.. Around 80% of people with genital herpes dont realize they have it because their symptoms are so mild, so just one sore could still very easily be herpes.. That being said, just in case it is herpes you should go straight to the doctor or urgent care to get tested and they will put you on medicine. The testing is only accurate while the sore is open and the medicine can only prevent new sores from starting, it cannot limit the pain for sores already there... I would not wait to see if it gets worse, the red spots on your labia look like they could be sores starting so I would go get that medicine if I were you.

      i was told by an online doctor that it may be syphilis because of it just being one sore and the sore is not causing any pain at all, it's just there. and the red dots could explain why.

      i was going to say syphilis too because the main symptom is the large ulcer and the bad smell could be bv and the bumps on your labia look like normal bumps but could just be inflamed by the bv

      if its syphilis then the doctor will give you a injection of ( 1million units of penicillin) in your butt and if BV you will get metronidazole 500mg twice a day for 7 to 14 days. You must see a healthcare provider immediately. Herpes is not curable but syphilis is. i wish u a speedy recovery.
