Don't want to scare you but that definitely looks like an STD of some sort. Cant tell if its Herpes or HPV but its something. Any itching or irritation? And do you get any bumps on your labia ?

CAN THESE BE TESTED FROM THE VAGINA? I GOT TESTED AND THE ONLY THING THAT CAME BACK WAS BV. the bumps were there when tested. just not in my vagina.

what exactly did they test for? a bv test is just a swab of your vaginal discharge which cant test for herpes.

if ifs not very painful i would think its bacterial from shaving.
if youve got a swab wait for the results and id get a blood test in about 6-12 weeks.

i hope so. i am already on antibiotics for BV and those spots are clearing up. but because of the discharge from BV it goes down near my butt when sitting and from it rubbing together when walking its irritated that my skin rubbed off. hard to keep it dry unless im sleeping

Why are you having it redone?

Because when the first cuktures were done, they must of out it in the wrong container for testing . so it came back as an error. I CALLED THEM THIS MORNING AND THEY SAID IT DIDNT COME BACK AS OF YET.
