Razor burn? friction rub through intercourse? Help!

Recently had intercourse with my boyfriend and this is the first time something like this has ever happened. I know for a fact we are both std and hpv clean because we both went to the doctor together for tests. We only have sex with each other.Both sides of my labia stings when stretched or even when i put a finger on it. It seems like the skin completely came off. As well i found out that there are multiple sores around my anus area. I'm confident that it could be from friction burn, but its hard to identify and research about it if it looks similar to herpes. At first i thought, the pain was from getting used to his size, but it started becoming difficult to wash the area at all. I always wash my vagina after sex and atleast 3 times a day, but now i've been washing it more than ever. I also checked if he had anything with his penis but it seems to be completely clean and normal I have also shaved right before we've had sex, so maybe the intercourse had irritated the skin? Has anyone ever recieved these before?

      HELP! Had shaved prior to intercourse mostly with a condom but there was some penetration and rubbing without (minimal but still). i felt sore and irritated the next few days (which i attributes to the roughness and being somewhat dry during sex) then developed some swelling and burning on one of my labias for a day or two. Then it went away, i didnt see any sores but i did have some white (not clear) vaginal discharge (which i have BV on and off a lot and prior to my period-which i ended up getting a few days later). i also noticed swollen glands in my neck (but i also had a very bad cold over new years) . ugh so many factors

      This was all in the span of a week and then it all went away. 2 days ago (12 days after the sexual encounter), i noticed some peeling inside my labias.

      any help or if anyone has knowledge of herpes because that is all the comes up!!!

    Hi, so I spent the majority of the weekend weekend having partaking in sex with my boyfriend. However, before doing so he gave me head which caused my vagina to be swollen as well as my labia. We had sex right after he did so with him wearing condoms all weekend. I know for a fact we are both clean and that we both we tested recently. Now I have white like sores all around my labia which is still swollen as well as around it.They only just showed up. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    This is herpes. When the do STD testing herpes isnt one they check for unless requested and even then sometimes it is harder because usually you can only get checked if you have an open sore such as those. Alot of people have herpes and dont even know and dont pass it, others it is the opposite. But yes that is Herpes.

    Currently experiencing the same thing. My doctor has done STD testing and blood work for STIS and HIV...All tests have came back negative. My doctor prescribed me both cream and antibiotics. Its basically an infection in the genitals from an unsanitized razor. She also said that it can be caused from friction from rubbing too hard or unlubricated sex
