What Causes Lesions On The Labia Minora?

default
Posted on Tue, 13 Dec 2016
Question: I've developed large ulcers on both sides of labia minora looks like they've originated from my clitorus. This was found a day after having rough foreplay and rough sex. We had sex first in the bathtub filled with a bath bomb and essential oils, then continued afterwards. The ulcers appeared shortly after. It's painful to urinate, and one of my labia is swollen. Could the ulcers (or lesions) be herpes so close after sex or could it be some kind of clitoral infection gone wrong? If I've given blood work and tested positive for hsv1 could I still have herpes or is it just because the antibodies are due to the clitoral infection caused by frictional trauma to clitorus? Is there a way I can send a photo?
