hello,it's good that you already went to see a doctor,and doctors diagnosis should always be respected more than any of our comments.
sometimes bacterial infections tend to be difficult to heal so please do not be worried or stressed and wait to see how the medication would affect it. keep us with your updates 😃

actually not all doctors are correct in their diagnoses! especially when it comes to herpes or sexual health! considering the doctor didnt offer a swab of the sores i would be going else were for advice!
i have a medical background and found that people who actually live and deal with herpes daily have the best advice and experience!
so some comments from people here actually do really help!

you need to get it swabbed to know exactly what bacteria is causing this

terribly painful! at first i thought it was an ingrown hair, but it got worse and more painful, hence the doctors trip, and no, they didnt do any swabs

It's possibly herpes, so make sure you get swab tested. You should probably force the issue with the next doctor your see by strongly asking for anti-virals against the herpes virus, as there's probable enough cause that this is the nature of the infection as you said you've had unprotected sex recently with a new partner recently, and this does resemble a classic herpes outbreak. The anti-viral medication should help speed help healing and overall reduce the symptoms of a herpes outbreak.
