what could it be?

I am worried about what's going on down there. This is my first pregnancy and never had anything like this going on down there before. Its many bumps on the left outside of my vagina. They leak and last night it was hard like crust over them but its not there now. I tested negative for herpes but I'm still worried. I go to a prenatal clinic and after the herpes test was negative she said its some kind of skin infection not really saying anything else just giving me antibiotics to take for ten days and said we will see from there. Could anyone help me or give me anything on what they have experience.

Okay, I will ask them what kind of blood test they gave me when I return. Im praying and hoping these antibiotics make them go away and never come back. Thanks for your response!

Hi, confirming herpes is by testing. If you tested negative then your negative. The only issue would be to have your partner tested as well. This is very important. With the sores your developing, its very important to have them swabbed and a test performed but must be done within 48 hours after appearing for best results. So if its been longer, just wait for a new set to show up.
If your looking for certainty then have the Western Blot blood test performed as a confirmatory test since your pregnant.
