Could Cut On Labia Minora Be A Symptom Of Herpes?
I had just noticed a small, cut like spot on my labia minora near my clit this morning, but it was only after I had just spent 3 hours driving. I'm not sexually active anymore, and I have been tested negative for STDs. I haven't had a herpes test, but I honestly don't think that is what that is.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Genital Herpes appears as grouped vesicles containing clear fluid, followed by grouped tiny ulceration, which can heal with or without specific treatment within 2 weeks time.
A cut like lesion over labia minora near clitoris most likely to be due to yeast infection. Smear (wet and dry) will confirm the diagnosis. Aniti-fungal antibiotics (Topical and Oral) will cure the condition. Consult your physician, she will help you.
