How long does genital herpes tingling last? Tingling feeling is not going away, please help.

I’ve been having this tingling feeling around my thighs and bum that some times feels like its going down the back of my legs. its been going on for 4 days now and a few days before that i noticed little cuts on the skin between my vagina and anus. The cuts healed pretty quickly, but the tingling got worse and i think it might be genital herpes. how long does tingling typically last? shouldnt it have gone away as the sores healed ? please help
