Not sure if it’s Herpes or it’s from rough sex

Posted , 11 users are following.

.. I had unprotected sex (June 25) with a guy I’m dating and i shaved proir, Also his penis is very big and wide. i was dry and it hurt going in..He kind of forced it and we also attempted anal, but stopped cause its too wide. i begged him to stop all together because it had became too painful ... i feel he ripped me pretty good near my perineum, but i can’t explain the 3 ulcer or burn looking things.. I’m not scared of it being something ..but just curious if anyone relates or has an opinion...i noticed this thursday 29th but felt it the day after...

First pic was thursday (29th)image

    i does look like herpes but go get tested to be sure, do they itch or burn, do you have any other symptoms ?

      they became irritated today a slight itch i think cause they are healing not sure and only burn if my pee hits it.... discharge symptom

      its common for herpes sores to only burn when pee touches them , i would definitely get them swab tested, as that will be the most accurate form of testing.

      Im sure its common for any cut or open sore to burn when pee touches it? but yeah i get you im getting swab done monday will keep updated

      hey, i hope that you're doing okay. at the end of the day it is a cold sore which we al look at so normally, as a man, it really wouldn't bother me personally. i do hope you're okay though

      Yeah I’m not sure honestly i got mines swabbed...do you have swollen lymph nodes or any symptoms

  • Edited

    mine looks the exact same as yours if not worse! The pain is awful! what did your dr prescribe and has it gotten better? mine was also triggered by rough sex and trying to enter when i was dry. looked like little cuts until they got much worse 😦

    • Edited

      yes mines got way worse over the days before i got tested (Kept thinking its burns and they’ll heal.. but they didn’t) i got prescibed Valacyclovir I’ve been taking my meds and its helped so much the ulcers are healing and the pain is completely gone i sometimes forget i have it lol I don’t stress it I’m here if you need to talk

      im so glad youre getting better!! I went to the doc yesterday and she visually confirmed HSV but did the swab to be sure. i cried almost the whole appt but luckily she was so kind and talked me through everything. i am also on Valacylovir too but have only taken two doses so not much change other than the blisters rupturing and having some liquid stuff (its pretty gnarly lol). she also gave me pain meds and gabapentrin for nerve pain which helps my cooch not feel like somone took a baseball bat to it. Doc did say my outbreak is severe and it is way worse than any pics ive seen on here 😦

      i tbink its because i shaved when it was in the early stages so i could see what was going on (i had a BUSH) so it spread more. I cant wait for this to be better!

      whew i guess i needed to unload all that! i feel alone with this because i dont want to share with anyone 😦 other than future partners but that is a loooong way off.

      lmao i was the same i cried but then i did more research, talked to others who have it and realized its just a skin rash in my opinion, girl my coochie literally resembled Freddy kruger in a matter of days lol im so happy its been clearing up ...it was weird how disgusted and fascinated at the same time, my friends have been so supportive and we just crack jokes its the best way to get past the stigma...ill be ready to date in a few months once i fully get control of outbreaks etc

    • Edited

      Freddy Kruger lmao!!!! Sameeeee! She is raw and busted!

      Only a day later from that post and I am already feeling better!!! Today is the first day I dont want to sit in a hot bath all day. Im amazed at how fast the Valacyclovil works and so thankful. I am also fascinated/disgusted by it too lolol Idk how many pics ive taken of my cooter so i can see what the heck is going on down there. I am glad you have supportive friends! I told my sister and want to tell my bff's im just nervous. I know they will still love me of course but youre right, the stigma is the worst part that is preventing me from opening up about it. using humor to get through it and cracking jokes is a great idea! thats how i cope with everything else so im gonna do the same! thank you for replying, you seem like a really cool person! our little chat has made me feel better!

    • Edited

      OMG the hot bath part was a stage i never want to return to lol the most painful part of the outbreak...I literally have a cooch art gallery in my phone to see the changes I’m so weird lmao...and I’m super happy you’re getting better and trying to become more open, just take one day at a time it gets easier boo and thanks for being cool asf

      I got my results FINALLY. I have genital HSV 1. I guess one of the guys that went down on me recently had a cold sore and didnt say anything or didnt know to say anything. I dont think a lot of people know it can spread that way...I also managed to spread it to myself and have herpes whitlow too. WTF!
