What Are The Symptoms Of Herpes?

Hi, I had a brazilian wax last Thursday and was in quite a lot of pain as she had to keep going over the same area with the wax. Over the next few days it felt very sore and swollen and now little blisters have appeared that are very sore and seem to be in clusters. I have been with my partner for 2 years. he suffers from cold sores and has told me he had an outbreak of Herpes several years ago. have I got Herpes or a reaction to the wax?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to genital herpes. Blistering rash with pain or burning sensation and itching can be most likely from genital herpes. You can go for herpes 1 and 2 blood test to confirm this. Local acyclovir cream and taking famcyclovir orally will be helpful also. You can use cold water for washing to get soothing from burning sensation or pain.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
