long story short the first picture is from a little over a year ago i went and got checked but it was already healing by the time i went in and she said it didnt look like herpes then but the picture i showed her looked concerning. i never had any testing done and only symptom i can think besides the sores was muscle aches in my leg fast foward to now i havent had anything like thst happen again until this last summer in august i had the bad break out but was also at work all day and didnt have underwear on and my pants were rubbing that part of my labia all day after work i went home and shaved and then the sores appeared they healed after about a week and then had the last sore appear around thanksgiving im going in kn tuesday to talk to a doctor and hopefully get a blood test since i dont have any symtotoms or outbreaks right now but dont want to infect my current partner if i do have it just curious to see if this could be anything else ive sort of come to terms with it just scared of it being positive imageimageimageimageimage

      Looks like herpes to me, but of course can't be sure without testing. I know it doesn't feel great but its not the end of the world, it's not your fault and you're not alone. Even if your blisters are healed by the time you go again to the doctors you could ask them anyway for antivirals just for comfort incase of another outbreak. If they're uncomfortable pour water on them when you wee, shower and bath lots to clean them and for comfort, take lots of painkillers from (if they hurt) and just generally try and rest up. Hope you're okay

    Not a doctor but looks like it could be, go and get them swabbed ASAP. It is not the end of the world if you do have them!
