What Causes Pain In Perineum?

I have recently noticed when i was wearing thongs, that there was a slight pain in my perineum area, then when i went to the bathroom i noticed when i whiped near that area it was a slight pain as well. So then i did some exploring down there and i noticed 3 little open soars spread out. Im concerned if its herpes or not. Ive been putting a&d onitment on it and helps a little bit.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Genital herpes is usually presented as blistering rashes and may later on with puss filled. It will be associated with burning sensation ,pain and itching. If you have such symptoms then you can go for herpes 1 and 2 blood test to rule out that. Acyclovir cream locally and famcyclovir orally will be helpful for this. If just sores it can be due to friction or fungal infection and in such case you can apply creams containing anti fungal agents like miconazole, anti bacterial like neomycin and corticosteroid like betamethasone for local application.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
