herpes or folliculitis or what?

about 4 years ago i had been locked up in jail for about a year and not sexual contact for that whole time and one day i got this like bump on my labia majora and it heald and went away and forgot about it and about 2 years after that i got the same thing again and i squeesed it although nothing ever like pop you know and i dabed it with rubbing alcohol and it just went away so i forgot about it and about a year after that i got another one agin this time i went to the doc but by that time it alreadhy scabbed so she did no culture or testing so she did examine it and said maybe because i do tend to shave although i hadent it may be an infected hair follicle or something so i forgot about it then about six months after i got this lil cluster like lil blisters clear puss filled lil miniature bumps that i've actually busted pop, squeese, pinched picked at and everything else and they just seem to never  spread or really hurt(of course it is uncofortable cause they dont belong there)or get bigger it it seems like it more or less on one speciific spot it it on my labia majora on the hair line toward the back on the crease of my private right on the bodder line of inner and outer. since then i got like two more and they've gone away they always go away in about 5-7 days and one doc even told me it was a mild case of folliculitis... what do you gys think  i have another that came so i gonna go to the doc on monday.. but its the same thing as before. they look like swollen hair pores between the hairs like gooze bumps a lil red no itch or pain or fever or any of the other symptoms i guess... and i've actually been in a serious strong relationship with my fiance who i will marry this august and we''ve done everthing in bed and he has not had any thing like this and we've lived together for about 3 years we've even done it while my bumps were present...what do you think?

It's been long enough that this has been going on that you can ask for a type specific herpes igg blood test when you go to the doc on monday.  I'd rule it out just to err on the side of caution no matter what.

what do you mean by: you'd rule it out just to err on the side of causiton no matter what?
sorry not too familiar with short type lingo what does err mean?

[gracefromHHP]

Err is not short type - it's a word.  

Your symptoms could be many things but indeed they do sound suspicious for herpes so it's well worth getting tested for it.

oh...well i feel a lil dumb...lol...well what do you think the other possibilities could be?

by the way im glad you are the one who responded,.reading the other post on this forum you sound like the one i would want to consult with besides by doc..course.

[gracefromHHP]

It could be an allergic reaction, vaginitis, skin infection or many other things. this is a reoccuring problem so it's well worth following up on it.

today these lil bumps are almost gone i did apply a lil dab of neosporin...can herpes lessions or blister come and go in about 2-3 days?

[gracefromHHP]

This can be many things. Follow up on it so you know.

you are right i will...where can i get a herpes test done at no cost if possible i am a full time student and dont make much$$$, i dont want to ask my mom because im an adult, 25 and when i went to plan parnt hood they told me they do not test for herpes, however everyone on this forum discuss how they were tested at pp...

[gracefromHHP]

Each PP is different as far as what testing they offer.  I know of no places that offer herpes blood tests free.  Sometimes you can find them for under $50 if you look hard enough.  Did you check at your college to see if they offer blood testing for herpes?

i went to go see my doc. and my lil bumps were almost blind to the eye and he said sometimes your body just goes through some things we should let it be unless it gets bigger of painful or it spread etc.  fine.... he said definitely not herpes that herpes is a very unique sore/bump that he would recognize on site and that he has been doing this for over 28 years and that im probably just bringing this upon myself beacuse i've obsessed over this for quite some time... but you know where more or less my bartholin's gland/vertibular gland is or should be well if i press down on there is paing and i can feel like a little bump deep inside between my bikini line and labia majora and it is sensitive to touch a lil and right next to that is were i tend to get this lil bumps or irritation..if you will...... so what do you think? help me please..for the sake of conversation what do you really think is going on with me... beacuse this is happening i am not imaging it

[gracefromHHP]

I think you are obsessing over things below your waist that normally you wouldn't be all that concerned about. You seem to be working very hard to find "something" going on down yonder.  What do you think?

Your spots that you've been working so hard to find might even be fordyce spots.

did they check you for yeast and bacterial infections while you were there?

[charybolton]

no i dont think so ...maybe... well that said my pap came back perfec...so.

[charybolton]

i also had sex today with my fiance and it was a lil pain....but we also havent been intimate in about 3 weeks.. is that relative..

[charybolton]

and the very next day after intercourse i got my period.. is it possible to be a lil unconfortable while doing it right before your period?
