    well to keep it a buck, it looks like it might be a canker sore, a form of herpes. you can tell by white spot and the red surrounding area. that or its a hair follicle infection. idk for sure. thats only my guess. it doesnt look that much like herpes tho tbh. you should get it checked out

      sorry um ben? i know youre new here and everything and its cute that youre trying to be smart but ive seen the numerous posts of people with canker sores on their genitals where they've swabbed it and it came back positive for herpes. & i think i'd know considering i have oral herpes. but thank you!

      i would say it has been on for a week now. i only noticed it during my period. i had really bad hygiene down there for the past 3 weeks i would say. i was sweating a lot, moving a lot and wearing tight clothes but wasn't able to shower frequently coz i was working a lot of hours. to be honest i wouldve thought it's only due to germs or bacteria build up but i also had sex 2 mos ago. last time i shaved was 2 mos ago too. no fever or anything. now it itches a little when i walk because it's in between my thighs. there's another one building up at the bottom too. i'll attach a recent photo

      see yeah. it was white before and now it seems to be yellow? very herpes-like . i dont mean to possibly scare you or give bad news. the way i am i'd rather people be honest with me. now ofc i hope its not herpes and it doesnt TOTALLY resemble herpes. it could be anything, your best bet is getting tested

      And you're an expert on the unique presentations of herpes I'm assuming? I see absolutely no reason you should be scaring this poor girl. Please take your fear mongering elsewhere.

      Please ignore these other users, based on what you're saying it could easily be fungal. Check with your GP to be sure as soon as you can but until he tells you otherwise don't sweat it.
