    It could be. Mine kind of looked like this. like canker sores, that had that white "film" stuff over it.. I never noticed any blisters or anything. Dont freak out though, pictures cant diagnose anything, you would need to go get a swab done before it heals! If it is herpes it is really no big deal and you can feel free to ask me anything you need.

      Dont be embarassed! 80% of people have it between type 1&2.. They just dont know it and there is a stigma. All it really is, is a contagious skin condition that some people might get in an unfortunate location. Ive had it over a year now, so yes cleared up! I have type 1 genital from someone who didnt know they had it.. With that being said, yours still might not be it. What symptoms do you have and have you had recent sexual encounter?
