Is this vestibular papillae or herpes?

Posted , 15 users are following.

File size is too bigThe only symptoms I have been experiencing are itching, and I think my vulva is a bit swollen. However I have not experienced any unusual discharge or illness due to these bumps. I always use protection when having sex and as far as I know none of my sexual partners have genital herpes . imageimage

    i would say its VP. i have something very similar, went to a sexual health clinic because i was concerned it was warts. and he said it wasnt and there was nothing for me to worry about.not sure if VP is known about by all doctors. but having done research and been reassured it wasnt an std id say it is VP.

    if you are concerned tho please see your doctor for a formal diagnosis to ease your worries.

      Thanks for your feedback! I have an appointment scheduled for Tuesday, but given that its almost a week away Im freaking out a bit. Did yours itch as well?

      not that ive noticed. but honestly skin itches so its normal to have the occasional itch even down there. but if its constant maybe its thrush? i only noticed mine after doing a self exam.

      but im sure i read somewhere that VP can be itchy for some.

      i understand i got nyself all stressed out waiting for my appointment. but im sure everything is fine. keep us updated.

      mine looks like that too but when i went to a doctor she never notice it and said it was nothing. May i ask if you had contact with your partner after the doctor said it was nothing? i'm afraid to get contact after seeing this even i went to a doctor and said it was nothing. i might infected my partner if this is warts. thank you

    i am a little worried about the white stuff near the hole.. any ideas as to what that could be?

      white discharge is quite normal, but accompanied with itching would indicate a yeast infection.

    i also noticed these bumps on my tongue?

    They dont hurt at all, I only noticed because i was inspecting my mouth

    update: the itching has significantly gone down in my vaginal region, but the bumps are still there

    My doctors appointment isnt until Tuesday morning so feedback is much appreciated!

      the bumps on your tongue are just tastebuds

    Update: My general doctor looked at the bumps on my vagina and is pretty sure it is genital warts. I am scheduling an appointment with an OBGYN to get conformation and to discuss treatment options. As for the bumps on my tongue she said they were nothing to worry about.

    Anyone else who has been diagnosed with HPV warts: have you had any other outbreaks since your first one?

      i honestly dont think the vaginal bumps are hpv. it looks like VP to me. theres several on here who have similar pics and doctors have said VP. i have similar and was told it wasnt warts. so im curious as to what your obgyn says
