Is this herpes? On day 4

Posted , 2 users are following.

Recently tested positive for EBV and Im sexually active. One is a large lump raised high of the skin the other is a small hard lump under skin you cant see. Both occasionally have a burning feeling. Do they look like herpes? No blistering as of day 4. I appreciate all comments.

    doesnt look like it to me. i get cysts and sometimes they start off looking like that and some of them never even fully form.

      yea when mine pop they usually have blood/puss in them. and if it was herpes dont think it would be bleeding. i wouldnt worry too much about it unless its really giving you pain / irritation
