So I found this bump two days ago. Then another one apeard, and now there are four. Im getting really worried about it. I am sexualy active but I thought I was safe because I got tested for sometings not to long ago, now I found out that I was only tested for chylamidia and ghonaria. Now Im really grossed out, and my partner alredy knows because I told him yesterday. Well these little red bumps are spread out, and I don't think its genital warts because they look like califlower right? They are on the right and left sides of my vagina and are near the inner hairline. They only hurt when I pee and they itch ocationaly. They aren't really hard or anything and they don't look like open sores or cuts, but if you look really closly they are redish and a little yellowish in the center. But they aren't blisters I don't think. If anything the center is lower then the rest. Can anyone Help me as to what this might be. I don't really have any other symptoms that I know of. I am on birthcontrol. If that could cause anything. I am allergic to some soaps if that could be anycause.

That sound like genital herpes.

Please go get checked while they are exposed. It is harder to diagnose herpes through the blood. Open sores is the true diagnoses because they are able to culture the lesion.

But I could be wrong. It could be an allergic reaction.

Either way please go to the doctors...

Grosse question hear did you try and burst any of them?like aspot? It could just be an ingrowing hair I had afew times and rushed myself to the doctors thinking it was something bad but that's all it was but go your doctors and ask the nurse to check you out.

My bofirend says he was tested. And so far nothing has shown up on him.

Depending where they are in the vagina then yes they would be painful. When you urinate, the pee passes over the sore causing a burning/stinging sensation. If they are outside of your vagina like your labia then they would itch.

Please read my first post. Did your boyfriend get the same bumps as you? How did he get tested?

If anything, try not to mess with them.

Herpes is not cureable is it?

No it's not curable but there are medications to prevent outbreaks.

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will also prevent sores such as not smoking, drinking less coffee, eating healthy and excersizing. Stress is also a factor as well. Being stressed out will cause an outbreak.

He has no bump. I pretty sure he went somewhere and got tested but I'm not sure how longago it was

Like I said before. Reread my first post. The best way to get an accurate result is to test when you have a sore. When testing through the blood it isn't that accurate. Your boyfriend got tested through the blood I presume?

Hopefully the bumps will still be there when you go to the doctors.

I read all of you advice I would think he was tested through the blood. The pictures of herpes looked like open sore. Unless there are different kinds? Mine are round

I don't think my boyfriend has ever had an out break of anything. But the isent the only guy I've bin with.

If he didn't have an open lesion then he was tested through the blood.

Herpes are round dear.

Is it really painful when you urinate?

And how old are you by the way?

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:13 PM
On a scale from 1-10 I would say a 6 or a 7 its bearable.

I'm 15 and I know I'm young. I really aprecate you helping me

It could be herpes.if this is your first outbreak you usually get more then1. If you ever had a cold sore that's also herpes. Just go to the doc.its only a simple blood test.

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:16 PM
Can it move up to my mouth?

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:18 PM
No I haven't had any cold sores.. I don't think ever. I am going to get tested I would heve today if I had anyway to unfortunately I don't drive and I can't tell my parents.

Blood tests with herpes isn't that simple.

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:23 PM
Why not. What makes it different then just getting blood drawn?

I'm really scared.

I'm not going to repeat myself.

Go get a test while the sores are still there.

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:27 PM

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:29 PM
Is there any hope that I could get it checked out and its nothing? Or once I have a bump, that's it I have something serious for sure.

Well, hon, it's hard to know without going to the doctor. It's possible it might be herpes, possible it isn't, but only a doctor can tell you on this one. Do you shave there? Is it possible it could be ingrown hairs?

topladyj
Mar 13, 2008, 02:38 PM
Bless you hopefully its just an ingrown hair but you got to get this checked out beautifulburnette is right. You will never no till you get that test done. And at least you can get on med and try not spreading it to your boyfriend... GOOD LUCK

ummhmm
Mar 13, 2008, 02:43 PM

Hi, it sounds like you have HSV, herpes simplex virus. You need to go see a doctor soon, or it will continue to spread. Your partner also needs to go and get tested. Herpes looks like little pimples, and can ooze pus and become very painful. I work in the health care field, and this is more common than one thinks. Herpes is controlled after the first outbreak with a medicine called Valtrex. If you are positive for herpes, there is no cure, and is easily transmitted, even during oral sex. Inform anyone you've been with, about the possibility, so he can get tested too. Men have fewer outbreaks than women, so sometimes you can never tell just by the physical appearance. Your doctor will do a pap smear and check it under a microscope for any abnormal cells, that is how you will be diagnosed. Good luck to you!

Remember: Birth control does not prevent any sexually transmitted diseases or bacterial infections. Nor should it cause any skin infections like you are talking about.

If it's hurting or burning when you urinate it could be Herpes, but usually Herpes will manifest as little open sores. There is a chance they could just be ingrown hairs or if you shave in that area, a hair follicle could have gotten infected and you could have a bacterial infection such as Staph. Best idea, make an appointment with your OB/GYN since we can't see the condition.

I hope you found this helpful.

No herpes is not curable but its not worth beating yourself up over it either, Its not as bad as most people think (thats just my experience) I have had the Virus for sometime now and have only ever had 2 sores, They did hurt while they were there but not extreme pain. There are things the doctors can give you If you do have regular breakouts. If it is inside you vagina and it is sore to urinate you may want to try sitting in a bath with warm water when you wee.
