no it doesnt burn or itch.. Now its scabbing over and kind of has some clear liquid coming out. my boyfriend said it could be herpes simplex. like a cold sore, but for down there

yeah cold sores are herpes. and herpes lesions usually have clear liquid. oral herpes and genital herpes are both herpes simplex virus. you can have herpes simplex type 1 orally or genitally. or you can have type 2 usually genitally

talk to your doctor about valtrex. thats a medication for herpes. you can also take a daily supplement called lysine. these pills will prevent the frequency of future outbreaks and shorten them when they come. i myself have oral herpes and when i feel a cold sore coming on or have one, i take the valtrex and its gone in days. no problem tho hun! glad to help. just be sure to be tested when you visit a doc.

yeah its likely that he gave you it genitally if you guys do oral sex. definitely will help him. good luck 😃!

I didn't even know that was possible lol. Also confused as to why after six years of being together why is it now showing up? Now that I know what to do hopefully it will help us out both.

yeah thats actually how a lot of people get genital herpes type 1. oral herpes can be passed to the genitals during oral sex. and the virus is tricky. herpes type 1 doesnt have outbreaks as often so its not passed as often as type 2. in order for herpes to pass, you come in contact with infected skin so its likely his cold sores never came in contact with your genitalia til now
