Suggest Remedy For Blister Like Ulcers On Buttocks And Labia
I had sexual intercourse with someone who was tested negative. We has intercourse roughly for about 3 hours, and a few days later I noticed what seemed like ulcers on my buttocks and on my labia. Now, a couple more have appeared. The one s on my labia are small, and the two on my buttocks are about 1 centimeter in width. All have a white center. The ulcers on my labia first appear blister like, then appear like a small ulcer. They burn when urine drips onto them. What might this be? Is this pressure sores or a bacterial infection?

Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
I will keep a likely possibility of Herpes Genitalis. Even though your sexual partner tested negative but the description and the time lag of appearance of the lesions seems to match with Herpes.
The lesions in Herpes are initially fluid filled which rupture subsequently to form erosions. The erosions are painful and have a burning sensation when urine comes into contact with the erosions.
Other symptoms like pelvic pain, difficulty in micturation and defecation may also accompany, specially a severe episode herpes
I would suggest that you visit a specialist for a confirmatory diagnosis. The lesions of herpes are characteristic to be confused with something else.
If this is indeed herpes, antivirals like Acyclovir Or Valacyclovir may be required.
Regards
