      yes ive been sleeping unprotected for 6 months now. i know people say you can never be sure but im 100% he didnt cheat so if thats the case. why would it take 5+ months for me to have an initial outbreak?

    here are some update picture in chronological order for anyone interested. throughout every stage it only felt very very sore to touch. urine never bothered it and when the blisters bursted a thick yellow pus came out of them. the picture in the first was taken the same day and the last picture in this post is from this morning. i thought herpes blisters were supposed to scab up but it looks like theyre just closing. ive also had clear jelly like discharge. not ovulation egg white but thicker less wet and less runny. anyone else experience something similar ? i havent been to the doctor yet so i dont know but the last time i std which was 6 months ago i was clean. please share your experiences i want to know if anyone has any opinions. imageimageimage

    yes it looks like HSV blisters. it may have taken 5 months for an initial outbreak because sometimes the virus immediately goes dormant in your body, and comes out when your immune system is down and compromised, like yours is now with a sinus infection. both of you should get blood tested because if you've had it for 5-6+ months it'll show up on the blood test at this point.
