Brief Answer:
There is need for testing

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Presence of blisters is indicative of herpes infection and white patches indicates toward fungal pathology. Having said this there is need for further evaluation using blood tests and KOH tests to identify the organism responsible for infection.

After that a treatment can be prescribed appropriately.

You are requested to see a doctor without delay as delayed treatment often causes more complications. It is important to state that home remedies unlikely to help you in current situation.

I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards.

Brief Answer:
You need to see a dermatologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.

Since both the conditions are sexually transmitted infections you need to see a dermatologist along with your partner.

Regarding good doctors/hospitals I am not supposed to name one as it is against website policy.

I hope this assists you further.
Thanks and regards.
