      the weird thing is that everyone i see here who has confirmed herpes said their first outbreak was very very painful, these dont hurt at all and they've been like this for almost a week

    I had a similar issues. It is worth getting checked out. Mine was never resolved. however, Herpes can appear in many different form. I would highly suggest getting it swabbed for your peace of mind.
