So for the past few months ive been getting these a few days after i shave. Not sure if you can tell in the picture but i noticed they have little hairs inside or on the side of the blisters. According to google herpes and ingrown hairs can be similar and im confused as hell. Ive never had any other symptom except for this. I will be getting my annual done next week and i will request for STD testing and i am so nervous because i want to have another baby 😦 Please give me your opinions image

    these look a little too inflamed and blister-like to just be ingrown hairs but it's hard to tell. i would go to the doctor to get checked out
