Possible Herpes

[pleasehelp0516]

About 7 days ago I had unprotected oral sex with a guy I have been seeing off an on for the past few months.  Yesterday I noticed multiple lesions on the  vaginal lips. (both sides).  I am very scared I may have contracted Herpes.  I have never had a cold sore and I didn't notice any cold sores or sores on his penis while having oral sex.  Can I get vaginal herpes from performing oral sex?  I have read many of the symptoms of herpes and they say pain while urinating.  Is this pain supposed to be coming from inside or more of a burn when the urine goes over the lesions.  Other than that I don't really have any other symptoms.  Is this definitely herpes or are there other explanations.
Thank you for your help!

yeah, your case makes no sense and doesn't seem like herpes is the culprit here... In order for you to get vaginal herpes he would of had to of performed oral or penial sex to you unprotected. You performing oral sex on him and getting an outbreak down there is not the reason for u having breakouts down there..

No he didn't perform on me.  I will get checked this as soon as the clinics open up.  Bad timing over memorial day weekend.  Thanks for the help!

You wouldn't get genital herpes from performing oral, but did he perform oral on you?  If he did, then you could get genital herpes that way, if he has oral herpes.

You should get seen as soon as possible for this, and have them do a type specific culture on the sores.  Don't let them tell you type doesn't matter.  It does - the transmission rates are different for each type, outbreak rates are different, etc.
