Is this Herpes?? Doctor said it doesn’t look like it but I don’t believe it!

I had unprotected sex on Sunday, 7/9. About 2-3 days after, I started feeling what felt like a cut down by my vagina. I took a look and see this red area with a white top. It burns when I pee but doesnt itch or tingle. I just feel burning only when peeing or when it's rubbing together with my other side.

I went to the urgent care yesterday and the nurse practitioner told me it didn't look like it but gave me a lab order to get the test anyways.

    Hello, did you receive any results? In a similar situation. I've only got the one sore/cut after some irritation from shaving.

    this would not cause a burning sensation while peeing, that is in your head. This could be herpes but its not a normal presentation. Practice safe monogamous sex in the future to avoid this.
