Is this genital herpes??

Posted , 177 users are following.

imageAbout two days ago my vagina started itching. When i looked at it, my skin seemed to be peeling. I was able to peel off a piece of skin from my labia minora. Yesterday when I looked at it, it looked like this. It is very painful when I urinate. I don't have any of the flu like symptoms that come with herpes though. I've been with the same guy for three months and didn't notice anything until now. Can someone please help me?! I also have an abnormal amount of discharge, but it doesn't have an odor. image

    hi there! so about two years ago i went to get a brazialian wax fot the first time and a few days later had the SAME exact thing pop up. it was so itchy i couldnt even sleep. i ended up going to the doctor, turns out i was hsv 1 and hsv 2 positive and i had no clue. never had any symptoms, problems, literally nothing until i got a wax which im assuming just irritated that area way too much and an outbreak finally happened. i have a scrip for Valtrex now and go to the doctor to keep tabs. sending good vibes your way!

      Which ones are you talking about? Do you have a picture of them? If it's what I think you are talking about they are fordyce spots.

    yes it is - nurse who has it

    it helps to pee in a tub btw

    get diagnosed by doctor. ask for igg antibody test for both type 1 and 2. they will be able to tell you which strain it is by doing a lab draw

    ADVICE FROM NEWLY DIAGNOSED: if you see anything like this do not hesitate. GET ON THE MEDS BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY GET MORE PAINFUL FROM HERE.

    PAIN YOU HAVE NEVER FELT BEFORE.

    i did not know what pain was before this

    hello , unfortunate that dose look like harpies simplex 1 . i have had harpies for 4 years and can say flu like is not always a symptom. when i first has my first out break i had lost my baby with my bf i spent 5 years with . i had a long partner but he didn't tell me or the other girl that he was found with this harpies till i went to a hospital and got checked out . my symptoms i had were my valvula and my clit were inflamed and swollen !! i had discharge with ordless smell and i had exstream pain i felt like my vagina was on fire and it was about to pop from the high inflammation i had . harpies don't always come with symptoms . i recommend you going to your obgyn and getting a blood test and swab. and get put on vultrex as soon as possible .
