I only ever slept with my boyfriedn of 2 years and highly doubt this could be Herpes as were always together I’m a stay at home mum and my boyfriend only ever is either at work or home , it started with a litttle discomfort and an itch then I have noticed an ulcer or something similar on my clitoris , it is a nightmare to wee or even walk , the pain is terrible I can only describe it as I have been burned with a curler down there and this is the after math . 2 days after noticing just one ulcer I took a bath and tried to gently wash my genita are with water nd soap when I felt a very very bad pain so I had a look and I couldn’t believe what I have saw there is so much going on down there I just don’t know what it can be I have about 6 ulcers one is very long , I have a patch of bumps looking like herpes honestly , and a very big ulcer right on my clitoris where I wee from, my boyfriend and I have been both checked for std and both were clean I haven’t really had sex with him for over a week now but the sores came around 3 days ago  , I am booked in with my doctor but it’s only in 3 days and I don’t think I can cope any longer . Please help!!!’

    A pic would help

      You need to be on a PC or laptop with a large window to add pictures.  If you are, then you should see some extra icons towards the top right of where you type, and the right hand icon (which I think is supposed to look like the sun over hills) will add images.

      The pic I've attached here shows the icons:

    It seems unlikely that it's an STI, but with symptoms like that, you should see a doctor sooner.  If you're in the UK, you could go to a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic - google "GUM clinic near me" for details.  Some of them have walk-in appointments and are open on Sundays.  If the pain is really bad, you should consider going to A&E (that's ER if you're in the USA or Canada).

    If you could update this thread and tell us what the doctors say, it would be appreciated.  Good luck.
