about a week ago me and my bf were going to have sex but i told him to stop because it was burning. it kept burning when i pee, from the outside not inside the vagina. i thought maybe it was a uti because i have had one before, buf after a few days i decided to look at my vagina . first i noticed one little bump. then last night i looked some more because my lips started being extra itchy & burning. and i saw these blisters/sores.
it only hurts or burns or gets irritated when i pee or it rubs on my pants, ive been avoiding thongs and tight pants. i dont think my discharge has changed. it hurts to even wipe.. i have been with my bf for 4 years and im afraid he cheated on me and gave me something. i am on birth control,so we dont use protection. we havent had sex since because it hurts. i didnt tell him about the bumps , just that it burns. what do i do???
i usually wear panty liners but stopped to see if it was causing this. please help me i am so terrified!
You might have contracted herpes. You should see a doctor.
you should go get tested for all stds, including herpes. and if you have not had any sex outside your relationship, you should confront your partner about it.
@john88875@ im afraid that might be the case. im trying to get in and see a dr but its hard with covid going on. im really scared.
im trying to do that asap.
i have not had sex outside of my relationship…
i feel gross. and i am having extreme anxiety about having something.
the sores have gone down and are almost gone but they are still there. it hurts a little less to pee as well. but my discharge has changed. its increased & its yellow on my underwear. my vagina now smells kind of.. sour? its hard to describe. it is now a few days since that photo. my post didnt get accepted right away.
anyways… im just really scared and its constantly on my mind. is it possible its something else?
anyone else have an opinion??
if you feel a bad smell, it is highly likely that you have contracted a candida that appeared in a phase of immune weakness complicit in genital herpes. it is important that you follow a treatment plan prescribed by your doctor

i have done a power of research on herpes after thinking i had it, and this certainly appears to be herpes i’m afraid. Good news is that this will be your initial outbreak and most likely the worst so any future ones will be less severe. You or your partner could have had the virus for years and it as lay dormant. do not pressume he has been unfaithful. some people carry the virus their whole life and never show any symptoms
take painkillers and pour water over your vagina as you pee to dilute the urine, it will sting less. and plenty of baths. let your skin breath as much as possible and rest when you can.
the description of the discharge does not sound good:\ i’m not sure what it could be
