Q: i cant tell if i have a yest infection or something else

  • ive had a pimple like bump in my vaginal area before starting at a very young age and it only happened very occasionally however i have recently had sex have either accuired an std or a yest infection. having difficulty telling. symptoms:
  • swollen vaginal lips
  • heavy flow of thick white discharge
  • swollen lymph nodes in left groin
  • pain that feels like a rash hurts to move

i had 3 red bumps yesterday but today they look more like white headed pimples and the pain is residing. a few days ago the smell was very bad but now it jus smells normal. ive also just notices there is also a very small cut on the skin infront of my anus. also i dont have sex often but this past week ive had sex 3 times in almost successive days so im wondering if prehaps my body has developed some type of reaction to the unusuallty. i was thinking yest infection because i wear tight clothes and after having sex those successive times i kno i was sore and more likely succeptable to an infection. please help if u can distinguish

probably you're first outbreak of herpes.  i have same symptoms, and the incredible pain happened the first 5 days i had my outbreak.

The pain is gone, but 2 months later, I've still got yeast like symptoms...

redness, tenderness, no bumps, nothing indicating herpes. but i recently tested positive so that's how i know what it is.

plus yeast meds and bacterial vaginosis antibiotics didn't work.
