Razor burn? friction rub through intercourse? Help!

Posted , 98 users are following.

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?

      Come to find out, it was follculitis, sorry cant spell. [lol] but, turned out to be that. i talked to a professional from a different clinic and turns out i showed him and he said its jst one spot, etc things i dont remember, basically from shaving too closely, since then i dont shave, i trim and i havent been having no sores.

      You should get insight from someone other than your doctor. because my doctor is an education center, they told me I "did" i fact have herpes, but when i showed a different doctor, he took a look and realized that, it wasnt herpes, it was follculitis. since then i havent been shaving or anything, ive been mostly trimming and i havent has a sore or feeling itchy down there or burns when i pee. sometimes other things could imintate herpes, but it actually isnt, or the doctors probably not doing their job as they should. a blood test should always be present instead of looking at the exact herpe, theyre not sure whether its a herpe or not without a blood test, and my blood been perfect since, but i hope your situation is not herpes and just something else, god bless :] if you want to talk more about me, just send me a message sweetie.

    ive been having the same problem and im honestly so scared, ive been with my partner for over 2 years and i freaked out when i saw that i had a cut and it formed into a little bump (i shaved myself with a razor that has been sitting in my bathroom for 2 weeks and probably picked up bacteria) and i started getting little bumps that leaded to having little hairs pop out of it.

    this is not herpes its called razor burn. it happens due to friction from sex after shaving especially if your partner just shaved also avoid using scented products to wash your genitals it makes it worse.

    Infectious rashes. You need to put some TCP on them, or another skin infection cream, you could use salty water, they would heal quicker, but salt is also a more painful way of recovering from open wound rashes. There are over the counter creams and gels for this issue.
