I was forced to have nonconsensual sex in March and I had an outbreak of something shortly after that (about a month later). I had the sores swabbed and cultured and both times the cultures came back negative. I also had 3 blood tests each a month apart. All came back negative. The doctor told me she could not diagnose the problem. The sores eventually cleared and I have not had an outbreak until a month ago. I had two bumps that looked like whiteheads on my vagina just above the outer labia. Those bumps turned into sores that healed and now I have two more in my pubic area (pelvis). They are itchy and painful. Some look like pimples, others are open, crater-like sores. They are very small.

I have a doctor appointment tomorrow morning with an obgyn, so I'm hoping they will be able to better diagnose the symptoms.

Any ideas as to what this might be?:confused::confused::confused:

Honestly It Sounds Like Herpes To Me You Have To Get The Swab Test When Sores Are Fresh And Have The Herpes Select Test. I Would Investigate It Further. I Kept Having Same Problem And My Test Kept Coming Out Neg Until 4/08 I Tested Positive For Hsv1 And Hsv2 . You Could Be Asymptomatic. I Pray For You Its Not This Virus Sucks AND THE SADDEST THING IS IT AFFECTS 90% OF THE POPULATION AND THEY DONT KNOW IT. GOOD LUCK I WILL PRAY FOR YOU AND A VACCINE.

hey idk a whole lot about STD's and stuff but I mean it also sounds like it could be a staph infection. Some people hear that and think no way because your body reacts so quickly to it but if you're fairly healthy you could very well only get a few bumps every now and then. the fact that it's in that area could be because of the "contact". but if not it also could be syphilis or a chancroid. But probably not so look at the staph thingy
