Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.
Herpes usually presents with tiny grouped fluid filled blisters which rupture to form superficial painful erosions.
When did you have sexual intercourse and when did you start experiencing burning on the affected area?
Did you have anal intercourse?
According to your complaints it doesn’t seem to be herpes but I will recommend you to upload the pictures of the affected area under the report section of the site so that I can have a clearer picture of the condition and can guide you accordingly.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
