Red Sores

So I had unprotected intercourse with this girl about a week ago and notice like 2 days later I had red sores (looks like ingrown hairs) all over my groin. There are about 6 patches of them and they are about a centimeter in diameter, they were ***** but popped and are now scabbed. I have noticed the inflammation of them has decreased but it seems like they are not healing that well. I am not sure if they are ingrown hairs, maybe a rash, irritation from the sex or possibly herpes. By how I described it do you think that it is possible that it is herpes? Also is it possible to post a picture because if so I am willing to do so.

Thank you

If you read the forum posting you can't post pictures of your privates.  It is best to have them looked at by a docotor.  We can't really tell you if its herpes or not.

Also they itch and are painful on contact.
