Potential herpes or friction bumps?

I have not been active for well over a year, the last time I didn't use protection was about 3 years ago. I recently came home and had sex with a friend about 4-5 times in 3 days. Each session lasting well over an hour, lots of riding. I could feel her pubic hair scratching lightly. I am wondering if this could be herpes or just friction related issues.

Its sounds like friction hun lol. Do you have blister like bumps?

Yes, I can upload a picture. If you are willing lol. I am worried rolleyes

Hey there:

In my opinion, I would have the area looked at by a doctor. If that is herpes it looks like the outbreak is almost "dried up" When you.first noticed, were the bumps "oozing" at all?

Didn't notice any oozing. I went to the doc and he didn't even do a swab he just said herpes. I find it odd that me and my partner have never had any symptoms and on the same day we have "symptoms". It is mind boggling, I hope that the doc is wrong. My partner had a swab done and we will see when the results come back.

Yeah, wait for that then goo to another dr or go to the one you're going to and demand a damn swab....grrrr that would've p*ssed me off!

I feel like it may be shingles to be honest.
