    i had the same issue, doctors dont tell you that yeast has the potential to cause sores though its rare. I would say get that lesion swabbed, if negative you may have chronic yeast infections like i do. Try using hydrocortisone on it, if it reacts badly i say you should probably be a bit confused but if it heals it you probably are in the same small percentile as me that gets sores from yeast infections.

      That first picture on your perineum is definitely an ulcer, not a cut whatsoever. The cut would be linear not circular with a white middle.

      That is undoubtedly herpes. Even if it was an itchy/uncomfortable tear between the vagina and anus, it's herpes. I know because that's the only place I'd get a breakout when I last got them. That is how it presents itself in mild cases and in my case after the first breakout . I've had it for almost 20 years so I know. It's possible you'll stop getting breakouts altogether.
