i'm sorry to hear you're going through this. the only way to properly diagnose this is by physical examination so i suggest you make an appointment with your gynecologist or primary care provider to have these lesions looked at. while it's true these lumps could be a symptom of genital herpes they might be caused by something else altogether. there are actually a few different conditions that could cause this type of outbreak. that's why a physical exam is required. i wanted to note that getting a clean bill of sexual health from a medical professional isn't entirely reliable unless you had the appropriate lab work done. the herpes simplex 2 virus (hsv-2) that causes genital herpes for example can be undetectable by physical examination if you aren't having an outbreak at the time. in that case it would only be detectable by a blood test. so it's possible for a person to have hsv-2 and not even know it. i wish you all the best and hope you get a diagnosis soon. meanwhile you should avoid having sex in order not to transmit this if indeed it's a sexually transmitted disease.
what are these fluid filled lumps around my anus? . i had anal sex with my boyfriend a week ago (both sexually clean as checked by doctor and no other sexual partners) & the other day above my anus in the crack started itching & the day after i developed a cluster of pus like fluid filled small lumps above my anus and in the crack. these are itchy & painful <negative_smiley> im freaking out because all the research i have done say its genital herpes. is there anything else this could be? i used a lot a massage oil as lube also. any information would be great.
