Posted on Fri, 11 Jan 2019
Question: A week ago I had a protected intercourse but received unprotected oral, the day after I used a foreign object to satisfy myself. The following day my discharge started to change and to a yellow foul smelling, eventually it became excessive leaving the area very moist. I decided to bathe in apple cider vinegar and I noticed these small sores near the anus and a very scattered around my inner thigh. i have attached a picture.

Brief Answer:
Can be herpes.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

I have seen the attached image. The painful cluster of sores that you have developed is likely to be due to herpes. This is usually associated with intense pain and mild fever.

A direct examination and a swab test will help in proper confirmation of diagnosis. Herpes can be diagnosed by viral culture obtained from the fluid from the lesion. There are also blood tests that can detect antibodies to the herpes viruses.

The treatment will then depend on the cause.

I hope this answers your query.

Regards.

so it's not always pus filled ? I just fine it all strange, I usually test on a annual basis my last test was in July and my partner tests as well. So this is all causing friction between us. I know my skin is sensitive when moist and I'm prone to scratching inadvertently. Wow this is really depressing to hear this.
