White spots HSV 1? PIC INCLUDED

Sexual health
1

Hi, so both my boyfriend and i get cold sores, 1.5 month ago he gave me oral sex right after having recovered from a cold sore, the next day i started feeling unwell - achy legs, groin and general body aches but no sores.
fast forward a few weeks i developed strange symptoms - painful peeing, body aches, tender groin but again no sores. i went to several clinics but no one could tell me what was up. i tested negative for UTI, yeast, bv.
Now like 2 weeks later my vagina is super itchy and red, my legs hurt again and my groin for like 5 days. I used OTC yeast infection cream last night and it burned like hell. This morning i have noticed these spots and im freaking out cause this is the first time i see any spots/blisters throughout this. Does this look like herpes? about 7 hours later the area looks peeled and weird i have attached pics of both.
another question i have is, is it possible for me to have the same type of HSV orally and genitally? If so is that why my symptoms are more mild?


File size is too big

this is what i looked like about 7 hours later

3

looks like fungal infection such as thrush

4

also if u already have hsv1 on the mouth and your boyfriend does aswel the likely hood of getting it on the vagina aswel is slim

5

thank you for responding. I will keep an eye on it. my doctor today said it looks like thrush as well and prescribed me cream and pills but for some reason i have a hard time believing it because of the achy legs and groin too, my anxiety is going crazy

6

a vaginal infection such as thrush can cause achy legs and glands in the groin because those glands are close to the site of infection like when u get a sore throat and your glands swell in your neck its same thing

7

i had something similar, it lasted for months andalso pian on the legs always

8

did you find out what it was?

9

oh okay, thank you so much for responding to everyone on here. I have another question, is it common for doctors to misdiagnose herpes as a yeast infection and also how can you mainly tell the difference between the two?

10

i can tell what u have in the photo is yeast u can kinda tell by the way the skin is paler

11

looks dry aswel yeast can cause swelling itching and burning sensation it can also make the skin peel and crack

12

nope still confused.. dont know if irritation, bacteria, benign tumour . whatl else u felt

13

go get tested

14

i already did.. i got 2 positives tests of 5.6 and rhen 4.2 and then 2 negatives after those positives..

15

if you have cold sores you would be positive for hsv 1. i was told it is rare for you to get it genital if you have it oral. if the blister or ooze i would get them swabbed to know

16

i just got the tests for hsv2.. it was igg and igm .. the iggs were the ones positive , always negative igms

so i dont know why i got the first two postives and then negatives

17

igm is only good for recent exposure if i am not mistaken. igg is the more accurate on that test for the antibodies .

18

You have type 2. IGM is for recent exposure. IF you’ve had herpes for a while you’ll test negative for igm and positive for igg. IGG tests for antibodies that have been produced after a while.

19

i tested positive for igg and igm negative 2 times

then after i took tests again and 2 times i got igg and igm negatives.. so, i dont know if thefirsts exams could have react with something? cuse they were low 5,6 and 4.2

girl, you have type 2. plain and simple. but just go get tested again after some time and see whay happens
