Is this genital herpes?

Posted , 4 users are following.

Its been months since Ive had sex. The other morning I noticed this cluster of blisters. They werent painful or itchy or anything. I have a history of bad eczema so i put a little of my eczema cream on. By the next morning the blisters were almost gone and the skin was just really dry. Today everything is normal except the skin is a little raw. I didnt have a fever or any other symptoms. some discharge but thats normal for me. From everything ive researched the blisters should have ulcered or been itchy and definitely taken way longer than 3 days to completely go away with genital herpes. imageimageimage

      mine looked exactly like this. doctors said mine looked like fungal but convinced it was herpes! did yours just go or leave slight lighter skin?

      ive actually done lots of research and i think its a really bad fungal yeast infection! im very prone to yeast infections and had a bad one recently that i think just never went away. i have white patches on my tongue too that look like too much yeast in the mouth as well. i just never knew yeast infections could leave blisters like that. im convinced its not herpes because the blisters are completely gone now and never ulcerated.

    this looks like a typical outbreak.. theres a cluster of blisters that oozed and scabbed over. go get them swabbed!
