What Causes Bumps With Severe Itching On The Vagina After Intercourse?

default
Posted on Mon, 7 Nov 2016
Question: I have an itchiness in my vagina along with a few bumps that showed up... is there a chance this may be herpes? its been going on for about 5 days and i tried to stop the itchiness.


my boyfriend did have a cold sore before us having sex without a condom, but it was not visible and neither of us could tell. I never had sex with anyone else except for him and we did not use a condom.

Brief Answer:
Not Herpese....

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to HCM.Thanks for weiting to us with your query. The picyure you sent me doesnot show any herpese like leision , most likely it is due to vigorous sex. One thing I would like to ask is that are these bumps painful? Apply Vitamin E cream and avoid sex for sometime. Maintain good local hygiene and wear cotton panties. Regards Dr Manisha Jain.

bumps are not painful but rather itchy. How long will it take to go away?

is there a way to get rid of the itchiness in the meanwhile?
