Yes, those present as pretty classic herpes ulcers. Get in to see your PC for a swab to confirm and get on suppressive meds.
could it be something else? i have no symptoms what so ever and the blisters didnt pop. i popped them. i also noticed that some of the popped blisters have hairs coming out.
Hi,
The most common cause of ulcers in the genitals are Herpes. Clinically they do look like Herpes, the next step is to determine whether they are or not HSV.
The approach here is to think Herpes, since it is the most common cause but that doesn’t mean it IS herpes.
