Hi,

It can be a breakout of herpes.
If you had recent unprotected sex there can be a breakout.

Taking antiviral (acyclovir) will help you.

For conformation you can do HSV 1+2, IgG, HSV 1+2, IgM.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
