Herpes or something else? Pics, story.

So I think I may have herpes and it doesn’t seem to fit most people’s narrative but the symptoms match. Mostly itchy. I haven’t had sex in about 3 years and nothing like this has ever happened before. So it’s possible a very long incubation period?? I also am kinda back and forth because for the first time I shaved very (way too, whoops) close to the vaginal opening with shaving cream and the wrong razer even (the one I use my legs/pits, I have a separate one but was distracted). The razer already gave me an infected razer burn on the mons, not helped from trying to tweeze some of the ingrown hairs too. So I was thinking maybe I got some sort of infection in my vaginal opening. To get the pictures I really had to pry myself open, the little bumps are definitely not on bigger outside labia parts. So the shaving could be a coincidence or the cause, I don’t know.

It does look like herpes, but you are so irritated. You need to get this swabbed and cultured! Are you burning or stinging, having discharge?

None of those things, just itchy.

Is it on both sides (left and right)?

yes

it does look like herpes , get them checked out stay positive !

Herpes can't be identified visually. I would get a culture done within the first two days of the bumps appearing.

did you find out what it was??
