please respond, so worried

im so freaked out about having herpes, about two days ago me and my boyfriend had sex, it got a bit dry, today i have two raw areas on my perenium that were just one cut before and i dont know if it is because of chafing during sex and a bit of a rip or if i have herpes.. im going to get tested tomorrow but i cant imagine what to do if it comes back positive. i have never had a cold sore and never any blisters or anything down there, just this, which is accompanied by a bit of itching because of it being raw.. im terrified. please some advice!

not really, i mean my boyfriend regularly performs oral sex on me, but he has never had a cold sore, i have also just had bumps like razor burn but these are not blisters, i think i have had an itchy lower area, but that could also be my mind playing tricks on me because im constantly focusing on that area of my body .. any other thoughts? thanks so much for responding

It is probably not herpes, sounds like friction like you suspect. If you have reason to believe you were exposed, it would take a few months before antibodies would be found in an igg test.

Are there any other reasons you think it might be herpes related?
