A week ago from today, I had sex for the first time in over a year. We used protection and I m allergic to latex. I noticed a cut on the inside of my right vagina lip that Sunday. Last night, I noticed bumps. They were a bright red last night. Kind of looked like blood spots. Today, they seem clear. They are only on the right inner part of my lip though. I also found out that I have a UTI and have been on macrobid since yesterday. I ve had a clear discharge but the places where the bumps are have a smell and white creamy look to them. Everything I ve read, says that could be herpes. I m scared to death!!!!! I usually only shave down there once a week or once every couple of weeks and during the past week, I shaved twice within 5 day. Please help.
Hello and thanks for your question. I have read your question and symptoms. Herpes does show up as blisters filled with clear fluid. The first time you have an outbreak they can be very painful because they irritate the nerves. Patients describe herpes pain and a burning tingling pain. Other things can cause blisters, like friction or other infections. If there is no pain it is probably not herpes. In any case it would be good for you to see a doctor while you have the blisters so that you could get a correct diagnosis and treatment. Good health to you.
