Sores/Cuts near vagina
by dfalkjar, Aug 20, 2009 07:49AM
Last week I noticed my vagina area was extremely painful. I looked and I discovered 2 sores. I'm pretty sure I remember nicking myself shaving and assumed they had become infected. I went to the doctor and was given antibiotics and they have cleared up. I am now worried that I may have confused this with herpes. Could I have been wrong?

From the symptoms it sounds like boils or carbuncle. Boils are caused by infection of the hair follicle by staph aureus.
Apply warm compresses on the boil and keep the area clean.Drainage of the boil is done only when it becomes soft and forms a head.Take some over the counter pain reliever and consult a doctor for examination and antibiotics prescription.If there are recurrent boils,then pls get your blood sugar levels estimated.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
