can an outbreak last for 4 weeks? Im confused as to whats going on with me, ive got these tiny little bump around my labia. They dont burn itch or anything. Never scabbed or ulcered or anything. Sometimes these bumps are more obvious than other times. Idk if its sebcaous glands( however you spell it) or other normal conditions were us females have these tiny glands around our vuvula. I sent a pic to my gyn and he didnt really seem concerned. I got tested but hsv wasnt included. I had a new sex partner and was dumb enough to take his word for it without seeing results with my actual eyes and now im paranoid. I noticed these tiny bumps 12 days after unlrotected sex. I also used a razor down there rushing to remove hair about 3 times in a month, which i never do i normally use a hair trimmer because i know razors cause ingrown hair and bumps for me.
Can a breakout go on for 4 weeks with no scabbing, itching, burning, pain and etc ?
A picture is worth a thousand words but your symptoms is along the lines of herpes. Depending on your immune system, an outbreak can last for over 6 weeks. If the bumps are drying out I recommend getting a HSV1 & HSV2 IGG blood test within 3-4 months to be sure. I wish you the best of luck.
hi i have a picture in ny other post if you view my profile. Can you lmk what you think
Ok, yes I see. I responded to that post earlier as well. Yes, I’m definitely sure it’s Herpes. Well wishes to you.
since these tiny bumps never turned into sores and only appear when im searching around touching down there trying to examine shoukd i just wait the 3 months for a blood test?
Not every Herpes bump turns into sores, sometimes it could just be a rash. Also, not everyone with Herpes has symptoms. If you want to be sure, get the IGG blood test in 4 months, however most doctors would be able to visibly diagnose you but since you have symptoms a swab would be the best way to go.
my doctor did a pelvic exam and ive also sent multiple pictures to my gyn and they didnt seem concerned about it. I dont have itchy burning and etc. Can they get a result from swabbing tiny bumps that look like VP that isnt an open sore/ulcer ?
and i will do both a swab and blood test in a few months
