Sores on outer vagina and near anus..is it herpes? (pics included)

Posted , 66 users are following.

I am getting tested tomorrow, but this is really weighing on my mind and has been from when I first started showing symptoms ( about 8 days ago..started as a red bump, looked like a ingrown hair at the time).. It has now progressed into a full blown sore that is extremely painful to any type of touch.

    hi everyone... So I have searched the depths of the internet for help as to what is wrong with me. I have only had sex with one man (I was with him for 6 years, I am only 21.) And just a few days ago I shaved and had sex with him without a condom, we are always careful and even though the pull-out method is not pregnancy-proof, we haven't had a pregnancy scare in the entire 6 years. However, after sex five days ago, I felt a bad pain near my anus and around my vagina and I am absolutely terrified that it might be herpes. I did go to the doctor today and she told me that she thinks it is just an infection. I would really appreciate some input because I am so scared. File size is too big

    Hey everyone I need help 😕 I get little sores (pimple like) here and there every now and then, most of the time it's ingrown hair sometimes it's when I'm approaching my period or no reason at all. Had this from a very young age but this time around i got this all over my vagina, they itch and have a little burning sensation but are not painful when touched. Haven't been intimate over 5-6months . I Recently shaved wasn't so bad but then I got my period and used scented pads of which I never use. I don't know what to do please give me advice on how to treat this or procedures to take. Im freaking out dunno what to think

      They look like ingrowns to me. The scented pads probably irritated the bumps. If you ended up getting tested, what were your results?
