ive been worrying myself sick over this. I noticed some discomfort after my period last week and upon looking discovered these bumps. im not sure if they are ingrown hairs or herpes. they only hurt when touched, Im just very worried.

    Hi your pictures are not to clear and perhaps you could try getting clearer ones. It sorta looks like sores but cannot tell honestly. If they are sores get them swabbed tested.

      when was the last time you had sex ? did these appear after ? The recent picture looks like you may have a yeast infection unless that is your normal discharge coming off your period. I see a few bumps that dont quiet scream heroes and could be a result of YI. If you can make an appointment and these are still present to get swabbed than do so. Otherwise your going to have to wait for a blood test later on to be accurate.

      i had sex about two weeks ago. I took another picture this morning and this is how it looks.

      If you had sex 2 weeks ago than it could be an outbreak. Did more sores appear or is it getting better ? The picture did not load, you may want to try again if you like.
