question: Herpes or not? YIKES! This has happened twice to me while wearing a pad-my skin breaks open.The first time-My partner was being rough on the outside of my clothes trying to turn me on by rubbing the outside of my privates over my clothes. The next day it hurt and I had a tear in my skin.Recently when wearing a pad something hurt in the same area. When I examined the area I had 3 tiny clear bubbles and one cut looking spot. The bubbles popped clear fluid and now the spot has turned into an open wound with a red border. It never scabs or crusts, it heals and goes away..when I try to take a picture to examine its too shiny.
