Hi there.

I note you said the 'sore' appeared on 'tuesday'. It is unclear what 'day' the fever started & if my understanding is right, you say the sore appeared 3 days after the fever. These things are important as they help us establish a clinical diagnosis.

Next, i advise a round of blood tests eg VDRL/STS, urine routine & a vaginal swab test & perhaps a swab test from the sore & do a gram stain on the same to see if any organisms isolated; also a IgG & IgM Herpes tests.

Relax. There is always a scientific reason for everything & the treatment will be based on the results. Please do consult a venreologist nearest you or feel free to contact me on healthcaremagic.com anytime using the ask-a-doctor feature shopuld you desire privacy. Good Luck!
