Yes, ask your doctor for a type specific IgG herpes blood test.
If it comes back positive for type 1, you won't know if that's an oral or genital infection, but if its type 2, its genital. For more info on that, check the herpes handbook at www.westoverheights.com

Yes it can be, but it doesn't have to be. You could be getting the cut because you are still having sex while its irritated from yeast. If you abstain for even a week, it might heal.
If it is an std, it might be herpes. How long have you had the cut?
