    Dear shay,

    The first photo (on the left) shows one or possibly two superficial ulcers; if these are quite painful and started soon after sex with a new partner then genital herpes is a strong possibility.

    Try to see a doctor asap so that they can examine the lesions and take a herpes DNA swab from the sores. If it's herpes, the sooner you seek treatment then the sooner you can get started on aciclovir (antiviral medication) to ease the symptoms.

    Adhari.

      Stay on the meds- just have to wait for the test result.
