Is this genital herpes?! HELLLP

Sexual health
1

I let a guy kiss me and give me oral sex. he claims to have no std or sti. this is what i look like down below after 4-5 days. i got tested and now im waiting for ressults. Many of us are thinking its a UTI?!!!

2

I’m sorry! Are you in pain? This is NOT a uti. If he only gave you oral he may have cold sores which is herpes and can be transferred to the genitals. What did they say when they tested you? Did they swab the sores or do blood or both?

herpes

4

kinda looks like it. keep us posted

5

I am in pain. I didn’t see any cold sores on his mouth. When they tested me, they said my urine looked as if I had a UTI. I am not on antibiotics for it. They did not swab the sores. Could it just be an infection?

6

Okay.

7

ouch. that def looks like herpes. i hope youre doing okay. he probably had oral herpes and gave it to you genitally. make sure to have them swab it for you

8

I would have to agree with everyone. This is herpes. the guy i was with had a cold sore and i didnt know. And he gave me Oral. Exactly how I got herpes. please go and get a swab!

So i would like to start by saying, i feel for you with this :frowning: this permanent hell raising disease :frowning:
to me from experience you do not have to actually have cold sores present to give this hell of a nightmare to us :frowning:
i have hsv 1 which i contracted from receiving oral from someone that DIDNT EVEN KNOW THEY HAD IT! You can be a carrier for years with NO OUTBREAKS! you could have even been exposed YEARS ago sadly

so keep your head up and once the test comes back get on the antivirals

hang in there. i am here if ever in need of a shoulder <3

mine kinda looks like that… but all my test came back negative. they did a blood test

11

i would go back and demand they swab the sores . hate doctors. thats the most accurate way to know

12

i also got my blood drawn. just waiting on results.

13

i got my blood drawn.

14

UPDATE: the antibiotics are making the bumps go down… still painful to pee/touch.

15

thank you :heart: im so sad but i haven’t gotten my test results back yet

16

update? was it herpes?

17

which did they prescibe you

18

i won’t know until Thursday

19

Also if your blood test is negative for herpes you need to go back and test again in 12 weeks. A positive blood result does not occur right away with a new infection. I can’t believe they didn’t swab you.

if yours looks like this, im pretty sure its herpes. you should have them swabbed. if you test too early, you can have a false negative.
