What is this ?

my vagina felt swollen after having sex and then it burned while peeing .I took a look and this is what I saw. What is this ? I also started bleeding after sex recently before this came up.

those 2 small blisters do look like it could be herpes but they don’t tend to bleed.. get them swabbed to be sure for either peace of mind or if you know its something you can then manage it. good luck, and if it is herpes don’t be concerned. it is manageable and doesn’t deserve the stigma it gets

Any chance you have a yeast infection or are you experiencing any discharge? I recently just went through this same thing except i had those on the skin on the opening of my vagina, it was a friction sore from not being wet enough and my skin being raw from the yeast infection. I didnt have burning while peeing though but i had the feeling of my vagina being swollen/almost burning. I just got my results back today and it was negative for hsv-1 and hsv-2.

Try to get into your doctors asap though so that they can swab it! Its better to be safe and for peace of mind, but dont worry about it because to me personally it doesnt really look like it!

ok thanks. I also have had bleeding after sex for the past 9 months. And it’s about 4 buttons in the same spot. It isnt hurting or anything just twice I peed apparently I touched it too much it burned while peeing.
it’s day 3 it’s still there but it looks as though its healing. Does herpes sores heal in a matter of days?

hey thanks I did have bleeding after sex for a while and a dr told me I could have an infection as I just had a baby. How long did your spots take to go away. the peeing and burning actually happened when I touched the button a lot. but it isnt burning now.

mine took about a matter of like hours for the white on it to go away, like 2 hours and then it was just red and raised a bit, almost like a scrape but not. If you were touching yours a lot though im sure its gonna make the healing process take longer. My spots hurt when i touched them too though. If you just had a baby im sure its just trauma from that then! I saw that people can get things that look like ulcers after plastic surgery down there too. As long as it wasnt a blister that popped i think herpes is out of the running, because herpes is usually clusters of blisters. Id get tested just incase though, but i wouldnt stress!:slight_smile:

hi did you ever find iut what it was
