Please help- is this a herpes sore?

Posted , 4 users are following.

There is just one sore on my outside of my vagina.

I tried to pop it and there really wasn't much that came out. I think I only aggravated it. The two images are the same sore, at different times. It's been around for almost a week and is only slightly uncomfortable when it rubs against clothing.

    Why are you wet? I like it. But in seriousness, it doesn't really look like herpes.

    Agree with Tina10337, the only way to know for sure is to get tested and have a doctor explain the results.

    In the mean time do as much research as possible ad to be prepared to meet your doctor with the right questions.

    It's a pimple. Herpes lesions don't extend deep into the skin. They sit on the surface like a blister.

      Correct. Sort of.

      A gyno looked at it yesterday and assured me it's definitely not herpes, but rather an ingrown hair! 👌🏼
