Could this painless tear be herpes?


Recommended Posts

Hi! This is the 2nd time I'm afraid I might herpes. Over a year ago I had a scare but after 3 negative blood tests I was relieved I didn't have anything. However, now I have another odd symptom. I had unprotected anal sex 2 weeks ago and 5 days ago I noticed a pain when I whipped myself (it doesn't hurt when I don't touch it). The first 2 days it itched but then it stopped. It wasn't till today I dared to take a mirror to look to what I have. There's a small cut like lession near by the anus. I didn't think it'll be a cut since it doesn't burn, not even when I shower. Is it normal for an open herpes sore not to burn? 

Also, the day before the pain began I had a momentary itch I would consider normal near by my anus, I scratched hard and I hurt myself. I'm hopeful it's only scratch I gave myself with my nail. 

Please give me your opinion. Cheers!

The only way to be sure is go to the doctor and ask for it to be swabbed and tested. It’s the most accurate test when there is an actual sore to test. Your doc May also say there’s nothing to worry about! We’re not diagnosis experts here haha. Better safe than sorry.
