it looks like it i would get swabbed asap. condoms only protect about 30% from getting herpes.

is it painful?
it does look like a typical herpes outbreak! sometimes bacterial infections from old razors can look like this! but from your pictures i do think you should get them swabbed and you can be sure then!

the sores are painful when being toched by water when i shower, skin contact rubbing against it while walking .. also ive noticed too random lymph nodes near my groin area around the same time the sores started to appear

yeah does sound like herpes!
most people get it from viral shedding.
defo get them swabbes and get some antivirals from your doctor!
tea tree and coconut oil will help dry them up!
any questions feel free to message me x

Do you know if your partner had or gets cold sores in their mouth? Yes. you can get herpes hsv1 via oral sex unfortunately.
Definitely get it swabbed asap and wishing you the best 🙏

not necessarily. herpes is kinda random that way. its pretty rare to have both genital and oral type 1 at the same time. you should definitely get swabbed tho, it does look like an outbreak

kayla, as everyone has stated get to the hospital fast and ask for valacyclovir, you will be fine, its just a virus that wont go away. we all are her for you and i just wanna let you know this is not the end of your life, you will move on.

you should get a blood test. swab tests are accurate when done properly. but im almost 100% sure this is herpes. this isnt an allergic reaction of any kind
