Genital Herpes?
by FatallyYours, Apr 28, 2008 05:17PM
For the past day or two, I was experiencing mild itching in my vulva. Today the itching is gone, but I decided to check out the area to see if anything looked unusual. I noticed a small tear on my vulva. I'm not sure how long it's been there. I don't know whether it was causing the itching or if it occurred as a result of my rubbing the area. It doesn't hurt. I have heard that genital herpes can present itself in the form of small cuts. I have never had any kind of sex (including oral), though I have masturbated before. Should I be concerned that this may be herpes?

Vaginitis is quite common in us gals and can cause tears in the skin. So can sensitivities to different products like soaps, detergents, pads, tampons and even good ole toilet paper. Go get this checked out. It's nothing std.
