herpes or not ?

[jenisse]

About a week ago i had sex but we used condoms we still had oral sex . Before having sex i did shave but in a hurry .After that i had gotten my period about 2 days later . I had kept my pad on for to long ( a kotex pad ) instead of wearing regular panties i had on a thong which with the pad irritated my skin so bad that when i took it off it was burning as if Someone cut me with a knife . Now i have these blisters . Unlike herpes these never were filled pimples which then popped then became sores . They were blisters since day one . Im scared i already took a test for herpes and i am waiting for the results . In the mean time can someone please help and tell me what i might have ?

So probably this isn't herpes. The swab test probably will be negative.

They only suspected 1 blister to be a herpe but they were not sure so they did a swab test . The first 2 doctors just looked at it and said they were pimples . Or just irritated skin . To me they do not look like herpes . My mother took a look and also said no because my older sister was infected with herpes when she was 18 . Years ago and my mother says she was so swollen she could not walk .

If the blisters and irritation are pretty much in the exact area in contact with the pad, you can safely assume this isn't herpes. Sounds more like irritation, an allergic reaction, etc. But what did they say? Did they suspect herpes when they did the test? I hope it was a swab test for culture or PCR, and not just a blood test.
