What Causes Soreness And Lesions On Labia Minora?
Question: My labia minora is sore. I am not sure if this is herpes or not, however my labia minora is sore and there are bumps on it. I have attached pictures
and the white clumpy stuff is the metrogel that you see as I was not sure of what to do because about 3 weeks ago I had bacterial vaginosis and a yeast infection.
Could you please advise on what to do as I have already put vagisil to numb the pain but it is not working. Thanks.

Can you still have a sex life with herpes??? Will you spread it??
Brief Answer:
You can have sex life with herpes.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
You can have sex life with herpes.
But there is risk of spreading the disease to partners. The risk is higher if you have sex in the presence of active lesions.
The risk of spreading the disease to partners can be reduced by using suppressive antiviral medications and condoms.
If you have further concerns, do write to me.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
