I’m 20f and almost a week ago me and my current partner had unprotected sex. About 2 days later I noticed a cut or something near my vulva but I didn’t pay it any mind as I figured it was from his sharp nails (which during sex we stopped bc he was scratching my vag). I also figured maybe i had a yeast infection coming on so I used boric acid for 2 days until I realized my now cut was an ulcer. I’ve heard many ppl say their first herpes outbreak was the worst but the pain im experiencing isn’t bad at all. It’s been about 5 days. I’ve been using an ointment for itching and pain and an ointment for cleaning cuts and scabs etc. I hate looking down there bc I get scared but I looked today and I hv smaller ulcers on the inside. Ik the boric acid could’ve irritated what was already going on. I also know that he was digging me out with his fingernails and I know that I’m scared as shit😭im so scared i don’t wanna look at my own parts let alone call a clinic and see wtf it actually is😕I’m praying it goes away in the next week or so. If anyone could send pictures of what an outbreak actually resembles or if any of the factors that may have played a part in the outbreak could possibly hv something to do with this, I’ll love u forever! Around new years my bf was sick and we were still hanging out. Then I got sick but it was just a cough. The same day I noticed my cut/ ulcer I also realized that I had an ulcer in my throat as well. Could this be from a cold sore from my partner? It’s too much☠️also I’m so scared to have anything bc that means I’ll have to tell him
