Hi about a year or so ago I was diagnosed with genital herpes. About a week ago the hood of my vagina became EXTREMELY ITCHY and it was so itchy I scratched it raw now its raw and itchy . I have clear to brown discharge . There are no bumps though and I know what an outbreak feels like (not fun) so I know it isn t an outbreak . I just need some help !
